Why did I buy this again? 2024 Pile of Shame Edition
Still Working on Windows 10 out of the Box in June 2024
Specs:
Xeon e3-1231 v3 3.6Ghz
Asus B85M-G Mainboard
RTX 2060 12GB OC Edition by ASUS
24GB DDR3 Ram
All Drives SSDs
Flawless 60 FPS - 1080p
IC is quit nice to play, has a strong and fresh game-play loop, only hindered by lacklustre Controls and a sinister Control Scheme.
This control Scheme changes the game into a Memorizer-SHMUP like Experience.
You need to know whats coming next to switch your Equipment accordingly...
Strange Design Choice in my Book...
BUT Don't buy this Version... it's obsolete!
Overall a 6/10 BECAUSE:
There is a Switch Port called Inferno Climber Reborn... a much better Version.
No Plans to bring IC to the Steam Store... Shame...
Because of that I will Thumb down this little obscure Metroidvania / Soulslike Game...
The game is a slog, it doesn’t respect our time. It take many hours to farm good equipment and upgrade it, and you will need good equipment from the desert forward, the game becomes insanely hard there without it. But if you spend the entire day farming for good equipment, and even so commit a mistake in a game hard like this one? Now you need to get your equipment back with a second character, spend another day farming and god forbid you commit a mistake with the second character as well, now you have to do everything again with a third character and hope to save at least the second character, and so on.
The first two bosses of the game are hard to kill, but fair, you don’t need to farm, just go forward. But then comes the desert, where enemies that are quite fast will kill you with two hits if you don’t have good armor. And if you don’t have a good weapon you can’t kill them before they hit again, after blocking. Then starts the slog, the never ending farming for levels, for the dark rapier, for the silver sword, good armor, upgrading everything in the blacksmith… Farm for potions, farm for food… Everything in this game is a neverending grind.
It wouldn’t be so bad if I was leveling up and being able to push forward, but it wasn’t the case. Leveling becomes very slow, and you gain one attribute point per level that won’t change much, unless you spend a really long time farming. I would do it if either the game threw good enough breakable gear to keep going, or if my upgrades to my equipment were permanent. But they aren’t, if you let your equipment break, it’s over. If you resurrect a character without the help of another character, it’s over, you lose all your equipment and your hard earned upgrades. It feels to me like this offline game has the grinding ambition of an MMORPG, but without the permanent bonuses of this kind of grind.
Despite all that the game is good, it is puzzling, it makes you think and try again. It doesn't underestimate the player. It kept me engaged and made me hate play it to the end.
After nearly 30 hours of gametime, I have lost interest in finishing this game. The way the death system functions aswell as the amount of downtime there is has ruined the remaining good bits this game had. After you beat the desert, this game becomes a backtracking fiesta.
Threw a rotten egg at an enemy.
It cracks open leaving its insides on the ground.
Walked over it and slipped.
My health potion flies out of my inventory and smashes into the ground.
Absolutely brilliant.
the food mechanic is aggrivating but it exists to keep the player moving so it accomplishes its job well.
there are a few things I wish were tweaked like getting comboed before you can recover from a downed state or the camera being a little drunk sometimes.
Over all an amazing lil gem I'm looking forward to completing.
Definitely one of the worst souls-like games out there. Honestly, it might been be one of the worst action RPGs.
The game is rife with technical problems, like frame drops and clipping through the floor. Even when the game is working properly, it does not respect your time at all. The extra steps added to respawn after every death are tedious and add nothing.
This is not the "Reborn" version of this game, and unfortunately it is completely unplayable for modern PCs. I have a good PC that runs games like The Witcher 3 at 60fps, but this game was slingshotting from 100fps to single digits every couple of seconds. It's unfortunate, because I really do like the art style and it looks fun.
EDIT: The Reborn version is on the Microsoft store and it works great. This game is actually so underrated, I do recommend checking it out. Dumb as heck that it still isn't updated here lmao
I can't even play the game what's the point of even having the option to pair a ps4 controller when it doesn't even recognize it also the inputs for the controller are all wrong I just want my money back
Inferno Climber is a wild game. Yes, it looks like Dark Souls. If you're expecting combat of that depth, don't buy this. The real flavor here is in the wild survival sim mechanics that, by the end of the game, have you eating garlic chicken to boost your attack power and farming fruit from trees and eggs from your chickens to make that food, as well as an atmosphere that only becomes more and more oppressive as the game proceeds. It's cheap, it's unpolished, but it's really, really rewarding if you give it the time.
Adorable tiny soulsy that captures the dreary feel far better than a lot of other attempts. worth a shot for the price.
It has a simplicity and charm I haven't felt since PS2 titles. All I can really think to say is that it has a warmness to it that comes from older game design.
I have a blind in progress Let's Play here: https://youtu.be/_5jcODY_j0g
I do like this game, but its an odd one. Its sprinkled with just odd design decisions through it; you can only read at a special table, you can only res your dead character after buying a special contract from Death (your working for the guy, you'd think he just hook you up, but no, he just LOVES to rip you off), and the treasure respawns. Ya, the treasure respawns in all the zones; that fine, but you start with nothing when you die, so you HAVE to run repeatedly to the tutorial zones to get enough healing potions to have a change to retrieve your corpse, no way you're gonna be able to afford em from Death (ya, he'll rip you off here too). The game should have just went with a recharging healing potion/flask kinda thing like Dark Souls; would have made things much smoother. I mean come on, you already lost your stuff and 1/2 your carried money.
Treat this game like Diablo; make sure you put some backup gear in your stash!
Grinding; this game wants you to grind, not only due to enforced grinding due to the death mechanism, but due to weapons breaking. Yep, they break; VERY often for the crappy ones you find around likes planks, and bones. Then, your punching stuff to death, not ideal. The copper sword you can buy (and should buy) is pretty tough, and has excellent reach; get STR 3 and Buy it!
Swapping weapons is kinda clunky; there is no alternate weapon set; you just have to quickly swap to the weapon you want to equip. As you play more, it gets much less clunky, something you get used to I guess. I've played about 3 hours and I'm used to it.
Thankfully, the combat is fun; and the lvls come fast, though the camera is a but janky. It kinda spins around way too fast, or gives you the wrong viewpoint at just the wrong time; this camera will kill you. Best way I have found is to only target enemies when you need to, and detarget them when you need to jump around, otherwise the camera might literally spin into a wall, blinding you.
Tutorial and game start issues:
Lore dump at the beginning; show not tell game! The game should have just opened at the "not Bahamut" fight after a quick character selection, not after spamming waves of text at me when I want to play a game, not read a game.
Its odd you can't name your character; especially as at the start you SIGN A SOUL CONTRACT! Would have been an EXCELLENT place for it, just saying...
The rain sound is WAY too low; almost as loud as smashing boxes.
Beyond that, its a fun action RPG Zelda/Souls thing that will challenge you. Have fun. :)
FIRST OF ALL DON'T BUY THIS VERSION!!!
I bought this version of the game thinking it was the same as Inferno Climber Reborn..... Nope its the old version of the game. This game has not been updated since 2016 and if you want the latest version you need to buy it on the Microsoft Store... Not on Steam...
Not only does it cost less there, but it is also the version that will support newer GPUs, CPUs, Windows APIs... its basically the better product and it pains to see that Arc System has not been called out for not adding the Reborn version of the game on Steam...
Arc System Works is not updating this game at all so if you have a modern PC it is not gonna work, the last update was in 2016... just does not work at all on modern computers.
Blazing mess of a game. Quite clearly if you have a modern PC that is not running a last generation video card this game messes up and is unplayable due to frame studdering and overall low frame rate.
I have a i7-intel 6 core CPU, 64GB of Ram, SSD drive, and an RX580.
It should have been an easy thing for my computer to run this game... and my Switch gets better over all frame rate. I only considered getting the PC version because it looked like I could get 60FPS easy and a full 1080p... which it does hit 1080p... but the frame rate is jumping between 5 fps and 60 fps at least 4 times a second.
Again if this game simply worked I think its an alright game... but I can't even enjoy it because lowering the resolution down to 720p and to the most simplistic settings does not fix any of the issues.
Really frustrating as this is a Unity Engine game, and there is no reason why it should have just worked except that the team did not optimize the code for PC at all and have not bothered updating the game.
Anyway I am going to wait for my Steam refund to come in, I already bought the "Reborn" version and I see no reason to pay for a worse product.... as the Reborn game gets 60FPS easily and does not have any of the issues above and costs less.
The Dreamcast font at the start got me really excited! The game had a good feel, like Quest64 -- nostalgia abound! However the controller support is terrible. Changing the camera angle felt floaty (it continued to move a little bit after letting go of the stick) making navigation a bit disorientating. You can't rebind controller actions other than what is your 'accept' button (x/o or a/b for ps or xbox schemes respectively). Menus for swapping items and weapons are extremely clunky with a controller and to me are counter-intuitive. If you want to play kb+m since you can rebind everything that way it might be worth it when its on sale?.. At its core the game is a light little platformer with basic combat revolving around whatever weapon you are yielding. With the 'recommended' controller scheme I can't recommend it at all.
I forgot how much I hated my first hours with Dark/Demons souls.
I'm still in the first non-tutorial area in this game after four hours, so I don't know if I'm the most qualified person to review this (having not seen much of the game proper) but thus far I give it a thumbs down. It's a SoulsLike game with a chibi artstyle - even has the thing where the first boss fight will wreck your everything. Think Zelda Souls, or perhaps Salt and Sanctuary 3D.
It's got a fun, simple combat system - you dodge out of the way of enemy attacks, keep an eye on your stamina meter, etc. The problem Dark Souls 2 has, where fighting multiple enemies is unviable but happens all the time anyway - doesn't occur here, because fighting multiple enemies at once is actually very viable here. Your attacks have a wide range, and enemies tend to gather in groups, making for easy pickings.
I'm less enthused with the equipment system. Basically, all weapons will break after a certain amount of usage, which is fine and all except that when they break it permanently disappears. And it's costly to repair your equipment, and it doesn't take too many swings to put your starter sword in the red zone. Granted, you can get money fairly easily by grinding, but grinding is not very fun. Items also respawn, so you can theoretically never have to buy any health potions as you go to the starting area and farm them, but that's incredibly boring and not worth doing. When I play soulslikes, I like rushing into different areas and trying to go as far as I can without grinding, because attacking the same enemies over and over again, or walking around without challenge is not very fun.
I dislike the level design even more. Enemies are kinda just left in areas, or hover in midair (kept afloat by giant insects), rather than being strategically placed to surprise you or challenge you in any specific way. The forsest map, at least, is incredibly samey, and while it's small enough that you can't really get lost for long, it's large enough that you'll often lose track of landmarks. I'm currently in what I think was intended to be a maze, because it's laberynthine and I can't tell where I am in relation to anything else and where I'm meant to go. This is not fun. The best part about games like Dark Souls is the exploration, and exploring in Inferno Climber isn't fun - it just feels like I go nowhere.
There's also a skill system. I can't comment much on it, because I've only unlocked the Dash move, but I will say that I'm four hours in and I haven't unlocked the ability to parry (or deflect in this game), dodgeroll, or use charge attacks. I'm supposed to find skill books, apparently, but they're either much farther into the game than they should be or they're hidden too well.
Finally, there's death. I'm of two minds about it - on one hand, you don't lose XP, and there's no time limit to reviving yourself. On the other hand, the respawn system works by literally making you play another character (thankfully with at the same level as your other characters), complete with all the equipment that character has and none that the last character you had has. It allows you to experiment with different builds - you can play as both a mage and as a powerhouse - but on the other hand, when your first character dies your only recourse is to farm for items and money before you try your hand at saving him. It works fairly well, I think, but unless you're prepared it leaves a very bad first impression, and if you're not careful you're going to be left playing a character that you suck with (like, say, the nameless one, ie: the deprived from Dark Souls) trying to reach the point where one of your other characters died with no money or equipment because you didn't put any in the chest beforehand. Or you're going to reach your corpse, relieved, and then realize that you forgot to buy the 'death contract' that you're supposed to use when you respawn any character.
I think if you're looking for a dark souls fix, you might find it here. If you've got an addictive personality, you'll get hooked. But don't take that for a recommendation. I'm going to keep playing, and I'm going to damn well try to finish it, but that's because I'm absolutely mad and I don't want to waste the four hours and the money I spent (Sunk cost fallacy, yaaay!). But unless you're specifically looking for a soulslike, you probably shouldn't buy this. And if you are, I'd recommend Salt and Sanctuary, Shrouded in Sanity, or Dark Maus before I recommend this. Maybe Nioh, but I haven't played it yet (I really shoulda bought that instead).
THAT SAID:
My first hours with Demon's Souls were terrible. My first hours with Dark Souls 1 were terrible. And I eventually became a huge fan of the series. So it could just be that I'm in that earlygame bit slog that accentuates the bad before the good comes and makes it all worth it, like the first two levels were for Demon's Souls. If so, I'll come back and edit this review.
This game just simply isn't polished enough for the asking price.
- Unless you have an Xbox360 controller lock on won't work at all, making the entire game useless
- This extends to even the Steam Controller
- Isn't very well optimized, looks like an Xbox360 title but chugs
- Menus refuse to work
Going to have to refund this, it's sad really, seems like it could have a fun core game, but they haven't bothered fixing anything since launch, just walked away from it. Not good enough afriad.
This game seems like a ton of fun, really i would've loved to get to play more than just a half an hour...but seriously though the motion sickness is real. I haven't had a game get me this bad in years...if you get sick from motion do stay away, but otherwise it seems like a very enjoyable title.
This game is like Animal Crossing, Mario Bros, Zelda, Monster Hunter and Dark Souls all were put in a blender and this is what came out. A extremely long and difficult story-light action rpg with large levels, difficult enemies and bosses and a detailed rpg system that was definitely heavily inspired by all the games mentioned above. In short if you love Dark Souls, Mario and Zelda and don't mind some monster hunter style hunger and equipment management mechanics buy this game, it's fantastic.
What it doesn't have in graphics it makes up for in mechanics. The game has some very interesting 'trials' to complete underground for special reward. You also can manage up to 8 characters and switch them out at will so you can always experiment with your loadouts with each character so if you get that powerful mage item with your knight don't worry you just put it in a box and can transfer it. Also of notice is each time you start a new game your item box items will remain in the box so you can redo the game with better equipment if you want to although there is no NG+ as far as I'm aware; but the game doesn't really need it. It's more than difficult enough as is.
Just be aware that the game kinda starts slow but gets more enjoyable the longer you play it.
Pretty good so far. You'll probably find a lot of people talking about the positive ways in which this game reminds people of Dark Souls so I'll skip that part and say that the enemies are pretty cool looking, status ailments are used in kind of interesting ways (the revive item, a literal written contract, can be destroyed by fire so you will need to avoid enemies that cause Burn) and most of my problems at time of writing come from the fact that the Early Access doesn't have all of the content.
Grinding is a bit of a problem right now, but I can't tell if the need to grind is a design choice or just the result of the current build only granting us access to the starting areas while also granting us access to weapon/armor upgrades that cost way more than starter enemies drop.
Chibi Zelda-Souls is a very nice summary...
You start off as a character with many "lives/classes" and if u die with one, you will pick another class/character, you have to ress the dead one with a ress scroll you buy for 60 coins, and the dead one will be unaviable until you ress them or break their graves, which destroys all their inventory including money, but their acuumaleted XP will remain. You will eventually after the tutorial get to a base which is sort of like a nexus or a hub, from which u access the other areas. As well as stock up on supplies, and you will get new merchants after u kill a boss.
As you get into the game you will mostly be using a sword and bow, or staffs for magic. I do not think the parry function is in the game yet so u will have to make due with blocking. Chests have randomized loot. for the most part, and respawn like enemies.
The enemies are alittle dissapointing in terms of variety, you have 4 types.
The skeleton which comes in a variety from sword+shield, sword, agressive and though red type, a "suprise" one which comes outta chests, and bow men.
The slugs or jelly beans are wither blue, red or green, Red ones can divde them seves after they loose some HP, Green ones ooze and can casue DEF down, all of them can make you oily which meakes it easier to get set aflame.
And some weird flying purple eye/orb with eye, which will either shoot, grab you or fly towards you with the propeller on their head.
In addition to a health bar and stamina bar, the stamina drops as u run/sprint, jump or fight. You also have a hunger meter, so u will have to get and eat food, luckily in the first areas it is not a very big problem to find, and some enemies have a chance of dropping some. If your hunger meter goes to zero you will start loosing HP until u eat.
All characters share progress, all though the enmies will return if u enter another zone, or die. They also share XP so that you dont have to level up another one, makes it alittle easier.
The game has some nice levels/zones, atm we have 2, not counting the tutorial, a forest and a castle. Both are very fun to explore but with the repetetive and punishing enemies, it gets abit tedious after you get stuck in an area.
There is also some intersting puzzles allthough the solutions are not always so obvious. And you will eventually discover the games crafting mechanincs, like cooking and upgrading weapons.
All in all a very fun and enertaining game. cant wait to see what comes!
If you have any questions dont hesitate to ask and I will try to respond as well as I can
Pretty good game thus far. Would like to see what weapons will be available after EA. Really like that it works completely with my PS4 controller without any extra software. Just plug it in and it works for this. Music is decent. Combat seems fairly fluid. Graphics are ok. Only encounter minor frame rate drops when entering a completely different part of a zone, or teleporting into a zone, otherwise it seems pretty consistent. Feels like a combination of elements from Dark Souls and Legend of Zelda.
