Welp, I enjoyed this game but now I cant play it through steam anymore or it will add 2gb's of files that I can't use and don't want.

-_-

Would definitely recomend this game to anyone, as long as they can handle a little difficulty. The entire package has an colorful and pleasing look to it.

As for the games contained there is Bamboo Ball is a fun/unique enough sports game with a little bit of challenge. Bamboo Moon is a enjoyable and relaxing title screen swimming experience. Bamboo Heart is a surprisingly deep and stands out to me as a game that I want to keep playing. I would definitely recommend this game just for Bamboo Heart as it itself is well worth the price of the game. OH there's also Bamboo Duel that you can unlock and play a 2-4 person multiplayer version of Bamboo Heart.

Bamboo Heart is a Katana Dueling side scrolling action game that is challenging but rewarding if you learn the mechanics and tricks. With quick, snappy controls, surprisingly deep combat, multiple character unlocks, and "boss" enemies spawning in different orders the game feels incredibly replayable. I want to go back to this game occasionally just because it feels incredibly satisfying. (PS: Please make more of this?)

As for performance there does seem to be something wrong with Bamboo Heart. While there isn't anything noticable at the start, once kills start to rack up (around 50+) the game can slow down significantly. Besides that it ran very well.

As someone who did not really hear of this game during its kickstarter and early access I have to say this game is a welcome change of pace from many other games in this price range. It maintains an immersive world, and a pretty aesthetic while also providing a game that is replayable and filled with content. There are two game modes, one allowing you to pursue a narrative and another that allows you to try to survive as long as you can. The crafting makes sense and seems to have a decent amount of content to find and create.

Pros
---------
+ Great texture work and overall aesthetic
+ The color schemes used are great
+ Gameplay provides a challenge and is rewarding
+ Large amount of content for the price
+ Interesting world to explore
+ Entertaining characters
+ Great soundtrack

Cons
---------
- Harm that isnt always telegraphed well (ants behind buildings, thorns in hard to see places)
- Performance bumps and a crash (seems to be fine now)
- Weird (feature?) that selects a item partially down in your inventory (last used?) on opening and then when tried to scroll through it resets to the top

Overall
---------
Really solid game for the price and provides an interesting world for you to survive in. I would recommend :3

A bullet-hell that pushes the difficulty envelope without ever feeling unfar. It challenges you but you're always able to learn and get better. A game with very tight controls and interesting enemies to fight against. Will provide many hours of fun for the price :)

All the fun of Smash Brothers, with the twitch shooting of Hotline Miami. Lots of fun and ♥♥♥♥ you's to other players. A lot of variety in the levels with even more in offline multiplayer. Perfect for both couch competitive or online. Also there's a button to quack so 10/10 would quack again.
