Sparklite

It's a fun game for sure, but it doesn't run that well and the controls are rough, and sometimes are unresponsive due to lag. The final boss is hard to beat not only because of the difficulty spike but because there is a high chance of it crashing halfway through (it crashed like 5 times for me). My advice is to stack as much defense, hammer boosting, damage, and health patches as you can, defense is really good even on hard mode.

(my first review seems to be missing, so rewriting) This game has a lot of polish; the gameplay & controls are about as good as you can get for a mobile game, and the graphics and music are just downright charming. My only issue is that you can't save in the middle of a run and come back later; you lose all of your progress in the current run if you do. This also means that if the game crashes in the middle of a run (which I've had twice now) you just lose everything from that run which is lame.

Few bugs: it crashes randomly after some time playing, maybe 30-60 minutes, sometimes if you kill an enemy while standing on the forge hole when it opens the character walks off the screen and forces a restart. Honestly the crashing is the biggest issue, feels like a memory leak or something, usually preceded by some stuttering and frame dropping. It also loses the license if I try to play offline. I'll buy it if I don't have to worry about technical issues. Play pass til then.
