Grabbed a sugar gun and went to fight caramel monsters - now my coffee's sweet and enemies melt mid-scream.

Really fun game. Simple as it should be all bullet hell games, fast paced, with shiny golds and nice music. Artwork is creative too.

I bought this game because it was $1 and was blown away. On paper, this game shouldn't work. It's basically Zelda mixed with Smash TV that doesn't support controller. But it's more than the sum of its parts. Pros: - Excellent controls - Great music - Neat bosses - Extra challenge stages are rock hard and pretty fun Cons: - Having to replay a dungeon if you die on the boss is not fun - Game is probably a little too...
