  • About this game:
    • Afterimage is a hand-drawn 2D action adventure that emphasizes fast-paced combat with diversified character builds, non-linear levels, and a gripping storyline set in the ruins of a fantasy world. Years after the cataclysm called "The Razing" nearly brought an end to the human civilization, an amnesiac girl named Renee awakens among the ruins of the city's capital. To recover her lost memories, she embarks on a journey to rescue her mentor, inexplicably setting into motion a series of events that will determine the fate of the new world.

I had a great time getting 100% on this game. I've played a ton of metroidvanias and thought this one was very well made. Spent about 40 hours with it. Definitely worth $2.50

Seems like it's hard to lose at this price based on trailer and environment backdrops but for anyone who has played it, how does it handle compared to what appear to be similar games like Hollow Knight, Dead Cells, etc.? Controls not feeling responsive leading to "cheap deaths" is kind of make or break for me in these kinds of games

For me, it was a very pretty game but gameplay got boring after a few hours. I eventually dropped it. Lowest I've seen is $1 on steam, as well.

I have quite an affinity for metroidvanias, but this one didn't hit the mark for me.

Pretty at first glance, but the game's level design is very generic and blocky. It killed the game for me.

I think I bought this and didn't care for it
The last "good" metrovania game I bought and played through was Bloodstained: Ritual of the Night. Now THAT game was very good.
