Respect for the GOG link (gotta reduce Steam’s monopoly-like grip on digital games), but… CrossCode, despite its fantastic presentation, wore me down to the point of not finishing it. I feel like the devs ran out of ideas halfway through because all of the dungeons involve multiple ricochet-angling puzzles, even all the way to the last one. They just got so tedious and boring that I eventually ended up “finishing” by watching someone else’s play-through.
It has an interesting plot, but… yeah. Anyway, that was my personal experience.
I struggled with it as well. My main problem seemed to be that no matter how many side quests I did, I was still underleveled for most enemy encounters. I did read that upgrading gear is worth more than levels, but it was such a grind to go and find all the materials that I eventually got bored. Shame though, because it’s really well made.
If you’re interested in this sort of thing and like action/adventure rpgs, give Crosscode a shot. it’s excellent

I had the exact same thought when I read the premise. One of my favorite indie games of all time.
Hi!

The people downvoting you have never experienced perfectly regular trees (and don’t understand CrossCode inside jokes).
