I went in with modest expectations and came out genuinely impressed. Haydee wears its Action influences on its sleeve, and it mostly works. It helps that the premise ("Haydee" is a hardcore old-style metroidvania mixed with modern-day) actually shows up in the moment-to-moment play. The difficulty curve is gentle at first and then asks more of you, which felt right. It runs well on a mid-range rig, though the later areas get busy. Worth it, especially on sale.
This one kept creeping back into my thoughts during the workday. Haydee leans hard into Action, and that is exactly the part that worked for me. It helps that the premise ("Haydee" is a hardcore old-style metroidvania mixed with modern-day) actually shows up in the moment-to-moment play. The difficulty curve is gentle at first and then asks more of you, which felt right. There is more content here than the price suggests. If you are on the fence, give it a shot.
