This game is very fun. The controls are simple and can be remapped. You have to reload your checkpoint to return to the last place you saved which can be annoying. At least there are several levels and they have good map design.
Things I learned while playing:
+ The more you fill up your white bar, the more damage you deal, which balances some of the difficulty with some later enemies
+ Also I learned that enemies you subdue can wake up with a heart symbol above their head, which means they are your temporary allies and will fight other enemies and other enemies can target them.
+ If you subdue an temporary ally, they will flash pink and become a permanent ally. Even if they are defeated by hostile enemies. Plus you can carry and keep subduing allies 💕
