Valfaris is an old-school pixel-art platformer, with a heavy metal soundtrack. Two out of three of these things I dislike, one I can tolerate. They all come together like a delicious meal of liver, peas, and beans.

I hate this game. Not ironically. I genuinely hate it. I spent the last few frustrating minutes trying not to watch the clock.

Some platformers are forgiving if you don't get the timing quite right on your moves.

This is not one of those. It requires a level of timing and coordination that my brain is not, and never has been, wired for.

Some folks can play this kind of game, and just flow through the game like water. I flow like bricks, and wanted to throw one at the screen.

If this kind of platformer is your bag, more power to you, but for me Valfaris is a straight-up:

1: Nope
