From the folks that brought you Odin Sphere comes a game that looks exactly like Odin Sphere:

    Sweet. I didn't get around to picking up Odin Sphere, and I'll feel a lot better buying it for a newer system.

    This looks pretty fucking amazing. I loved Odin Sphere/that other game which I forget the name of's graphical styles, but the gameplay never interested me. This looks like an old-school platformer, so I'm definitely very eager to hear more about it.

    Odin Sphere was pretty (if you could get past the HORRIBLE slowdown) but the gameplay was boring as fuck.

    If they fix the slowdown problem and change the style up, this might be worth looking into.

    It's not going to be as good as Odin Sphere in storyline, at least. After all, Odin Sphere's storyline was phenomenal. It deserved a place in the canon of classic literature.

    graphics are pretty good looking, gameplay I can't really judge from just a few snippets. Treasure are you paying attention? New Guardian Heroes with graphics of this caliber, go.

    Seriously? I admit I only got to Chapter 5 before going 'Fuck this' but so far the story up to that point was pretty.. not great.

    I never played Odin Sphere but that's exactly what I thought while watching this. Looks like it plays like GBA shovelware.

    Oboro. Does this game star a young transgender college student?

    That game looks gorgeous. I only hope (as others stated) that the gameplay doesn't suck as bad as Odin Sphere's does.
