Beat it and started a new game+ on hard mode. I know it won't be difficult on a new game+, but I'm doing to make grinding crafting materials for the item list completion less of a chore. I figure I'll naturally get a lot of materials just playing through the game normally again instead of running around and grinding just yet.
Really fun game though. Feels just like a gba/DS Era castlevania game with bits of sotn toss in the mix. Only request? have the accelerator shard be available earlier, because the amount of back tracking is a bit high in the game for not having that available at 50% through the game as opposed to 90%.
Also, why was the second to last area (and some of the last area) just a copy/paste asset re-use? That was supremely disappointing. I wanted an entirely new/creative area for the end of the game and I got a version of the garden where I'm smaller/everything is bigger and then an ice version of some of the water area/some new stuff. Boooooo, you could tell it was rushed or something.
