This is a very pretty Metroidvania. You play a small sprite creature in a forest, exploring and fighting monsters. Your parental figure dies near the start, and causes you to head off into the world and try to restore the forest to how it used to be. At first I was pretty frustrated by the floaty jump and how eager it is to kill you. After a while though I got the hang of the movement, and acquired several new skills which I found made it much more fun. In particular one where you can fling yourself using enemies and projectiles around you. You can also fling them around, using them to solve puzzles or defeat monsters.
