Use your jet to manoeuvre through and burn enemies. Discover powerful item synergies. Die repeatedly to tough bosses.
Skyward Descent is not the next big thing. It's a game you pick up, play for a while, then put down to go about your day. Then tomorrow, you'll be looking for something to do and go "that Skybound Ascension game was actually pretty good" so you pick it up, play it, and before you know it it's your new "go to" game.
