Hi there, I made a gameplay review video for Soul Crisis and I must say this game is so hard, like too much hard. I have some notes here and there but the video sums it all. It will be great if you guys can subscribe to my YouTube channel; It will really keep me going and do more of these reviews.



  • As a starter, the resolution is not set up for a good appropriate experience, but maybe this is the style you prefer and you want it! So I will not judge that :p
  • I like the style of the game! I do like this new concept of fighting.
  • However, the battle seems almost impossible, you get hit too easy and it seems that you are being targeted no matter where you go (I thought there is fixed aimed places but it looks like it follows your movements).
  • Maybe add how to play guide in the game, because as an example I figured out that charging weapon after you get hit can be resumed!

Surely it is a challenging game, but this is a very hard one to be honest. Can we have lowering difficulties in the future? I hope this review helps in making your games better. I really do!

wow, this are actually good criticisms... while it was pretty funny seeing u struggle with the game :D. we did upload a build a few days ago which should have made the game a lot easier

Glad that this was a good criticisms! And more glad that you enjoyed my struggle lol. I will try the new version, if there is enough changes you can expect a follow up video! Depending ;)
