Would love some impressions on this one as well. Looks great so far! Kudos to the developers.
Out now on PS4! Get it here: https://goo.gl/Jknhpn EU next week.Details on our site: http://www.redgoddessgame.com TY
Finally got a chance to play tonight for about an hour. First things first; well done guys, it feels great! Mission accomplished. Really.
Controls are up there with the best of the genre. I'm sorry I don't have much time to write some more detailed impressions but let's at least use the good old "good/bad" type of list.
GOOD:
The controls are pretty much perfect.
It feels great!
It's colorful & stylish.
Graphics are better than expected, lots of tiny details and effects.
Animations are well done.
The music fits perfectly.
The game is fun!! Not too many collectibles, I love it so far.
The village has some kind of Jak&Daxter feel to it that I like.
Combat, while not Guacamelee-deep, is better than most 2D games. Upercuts & air juggling = fun.
Level design... So far so good!
1080p / generally 60fps
BAD
Chromatic aberration: there should be an option to turn it off, or a slider to reduce the effect.
Game chugs when streaming/saving and it can get really bad at times. Frame drops when scrolling vertically.
The jump "uh" sounds can get annoying.
No D-PAD option...
The "Quest update / press pad" promp stays on forever if you don't press the pad... We should at least be able to swipe it off the screen or it just shouldn't stay on screen more than 5 seconds.
There you go, I can't wait to play more, hopefully you guys can patch in a couple of those things because it's quite close to perfection!

Thanks to analyze our game and pass with this detail, we are really very grateful, indeed, we are working on a patch to fix some of these problems. We're going to submit to Sony for approval and we hope for the coming week will be ready.
Thank you very much for your support! You made my day!
None of those look like deal breakers, i will give it a shot for sure soon
Great! Thanks so much for your support
Wow! Thanks so much, we hope you enjoy playing as much we've enjoyed making Red Goddess! Thanks for your support!

Unfortunately, I don't think Sony's CrossBuy program lets a developer establish ahead of time the release strategy?
Plus, the Vita version is a complete port-over to another engine (UE4 to Unity.) It's a significant job, and unless the development team is heavy into it already, I would not consider a Vita version if you're planning on buying it now and hoping for it to CrossBuy... better to either get it or don't (and maybe consider Remote Play?) and don't even think about the Vita plans until it happens down the line.
They do.
I don't know how many projects I've backed I think 4 but yeah seems a long time ago now I dunno if their ever gonna show up at this ratecan't wait to get my Kickstarter key
glad to see one of the projects I've backed turning up!
I really do like the Guacamelee-ish map and village.
Hey a new video ingame! We're so thrilled!! Please check this video out! TY

We're working in many platforms, we're going to release stragered, PC on October 2015, Wii U and Vita, 1Q2016! Thanks for your comments and your support
I'll do a version of Oneself's good/bad:
GOOD
World is purdy!
Platforming controls feel good.
Platforming, as a whole, is solid.
Guacamelee-town is a good snipe!
Love the Metroid/Guacamelee abilities to open new paths.
BAD
Major slowdown and full freezes.
The "UHH!" (as Oneself mentioned) is too much; too often. (I'd remove it entirely.)
"QUEST / PRESS PAD" happens too often and stays on screen.
Why is the shop at the top of the village?!
I died A LOT with the intro of the Blue Mask, after no deaths prior. Might just be me, but an annoying mechanic. ("New Ability! Avoid it!" "Wait, what?!")
After passing the Blue Mask intro, I died a lot in the next encounter. Might just be me again, but I felt combat was too slow/clunky to manage fireballs plus multiple melee enemies. (Did I miss a dodge move?)
You could say I'm not feeling the combat. Some of the mechanics are odd. (And I loved Ori and the Blind Forest!) :/
Not giving up! Will play more, and maybe I'll eat my words.

Hello!
Thanks so much for your comments, Some tips about:
-You can dodge with L2 R2. Dodge is very useful when you have a lot of armoured enemies. You can also dodge in the air. When you dodge you cannot be hitted, so you can also use it against fireballs.
-Don't forget to use the posesion power of Divine, to kill your enemies. Again, very useful against armored enemies
-About technical issues, we're going to submit a patch the next week, improving streaming, We'll update you when it's approval by Sony!
We love to receive your opinion and reactions! So grateful, thanks so much!

Noticed this was up on the UK PSN store as of today. Good for you Yanim! Hope it's a success. I'm interested, but have too much to play right now so I'll wait until I've cleared 2-3 games from my backlog before considering buying this.
WOW!
That update is ace! You guys are delivering!!
Improved streaming and frame rate ✔
Quest update promp gone after 5 seconds ✔
Less frequent "uh" sound when jumping ✔
Chromatic aberration reduced or gone ✔
What's next? Control pad support?
We've been pretty busy. Of course the most importat improvement is streaming and framerate... We hope you enjoy our title as much we've done making it!now that Armature is trying to get UE4 to work on Vita for Bloodstained - yanim, you may want to consider contacting them to see if they can help (so you can being Red Goddess to Vita without changing engine)?
if I remember correctly. Armature mentioned they would share their know-how if the Kickstarter was successful (and it was... spectuarly)

Hi! Thanks for your message, we've contacted them, not reply yet, we're going to contact again, thanks for your information!! Nice Weekend!
Ah, totally missed the patch going up (Rocket League took over all my time).WOW!

I'll go back to it over the weekend!
Oh, we get to play as Tilda Swinton? Why didn't you say so.
I wish developers would still release game demos. I'm interested in the game but there are hardly any reviews out there which means it's difficult to get an overall impression on the quality of the game. In cases like this, a demo can help convince potential buyers in purchasing.

To be fair, the game has actual analog controls for the character movement, so it's warranted that you use the stick. Options never hurt, though.
Well I don't know how this missed me but just went from page 1 to the last one and love how close they worked with us GAF (players) yanim seems like a kick ass guy..
Def gonna get the game and will be keeping an eye here checking for any new updates and if anything lending a hand ..
Great work on your part Yanim

Started to play the game on Friday (after I bought it Day1), but after finishing Act II, I'm a little disappointed. The reason is, that there are way to many parts, where you can die by one hit and the game has to load the Save Point every time (which takes 30-60 secondds EVERY TIME!). I'm on my way to the 33 Crystal gate and I'm dying at the same spot every time, because I can't avoid spikes, which kill me instantly. That is really frustrating.
Please email us to: info@yanim.net we need that you answer some questions to find the issues. Sorry about! Awainting your reply! Best regards,
We're so excited we'll release Red Goddess on PC via Steam tomorrow September 1st. Please take a look: http://store.steampowered.com/app/322440/ and support us! TY
