Stupid-low price for one of the finest platforming games of all time, if not the best. Take it from me, I've been paying attention since Super Mario Bros was new.
Can't recommend this game enough. Did I want to throw my controller across the room on multiple occasions, sure. But it's a great game, soundtrack is solid, has its difficulty and uniqueness.
I cannot recommend this game enough. Game play is similar to the original Super Meat Boy, but less episodic and with amazing themes. Strong platforming elements with little collectables added in for extra difficulty. It is not an easy game, but rewarding and fair.

The music and story are absolutely wonderful. It rightfully won a bunch of game of the year awards back in 2018.

I bought a physical copy a while ago, but at this price really thinking about getting a digital one for convenience.

I'll get the digital but might sell my physical. They're going for a pretty penny nowadays.

I'll have to check out what they are going for. Mine is the BestBuy version (grabbed this and Golf Story back when GCU was still a thing), so not sure if that would be as desirable as the other artwork on the direct from Limited Run version.

I guess limited run games did it because people were upset after ordering from them that they were selling them at Best Buy. I don't personally care, I just wanted the game and was able to buy it at Best Buy.

Those people can kick rocks. Imagine feeling slightly satisfied because the BB cover is not as unique as your LRG exclusive copy. This just creates this stupid artificial club rareness that they can foresee profiting off of their copy down the road.

Anyways..

That is part of limited run's business model it seems though. I am not sure of all the details, but I gather they sold some games as if they were doing a single limited production run and then wound up also printing a bunch of copies for Best Buy during the production run. They probably felt they needed to do something given the business model is built on artificial scarcity and the uniqueness of a physical product.

I bought my copy to play, not collect as I generally just don't like buying digitally (I guess I'm living in the past on this). My issues with digital rights aside, digital games are more convenient.

Anyway, this is a great game for $5.
