For an indie game being developed by ONE person, this game has grabbed my attention pretty tenaciously. For one: it has THE FLASHIEST combat of any game I've seen in a very long time. The guy basically fights like Vergil from Devil May Cry, lightning quick (even warping) hack-and-slash insanity. And I think that is definitely one game from which the developer is drawing inspiration due to the whole look alike protagonist/antagonist deal. There is definitely some inspiration from Final Fantasy as well. You can see it in the crystal and the main character's design to an extent. Tokyo Ghoul might even be a source of inspiration based on the antagonist's mask. The dragon seems awfully familiar, but I can't quite say what it reminds me of.

Anyways, I don't want to get my hopes up for another indie game that could let me down, but this was a very pleasant surprise. Anybody else have any thoughts on this?
