Tres Bashers, 8/10
At $10 this is a fairly priced metroidvania that lasted me about 6 hours, although give take an extra hour for the secret boss fight that took me longer than expected due to a gif of MatPat (don't ask)...
The first thing you will notice upon starting a new game is how good swinging the baseball bat feels.
The snappy animation, the loud crack when you hit an enemy, the way you go flying if you swing it into a wall while airborne. Immaculate.
My only major complaint is that the map is extremely barebones and doesn't zoom out all the way. It doesn't affect things too much as the world is small enough that your memory should be enough to fill in any gaps.
There are plenty of secrets to find, but I won't say anything about them :).

hidden gem, made me an ondydev fan
starts off simple and small, is bigger than it seems
once you get a hang of the momentum in the movement, it's so much fun
(you can turn while holding bat by pivot jumping and flashlight by dashing!)

Great game. Tight controls, good level design and interesting-yet-simple mechanics. Soundtrack is fantastic too.

This was right up my alley. This could very well have been a (huge) NES game and is vaguely similar to Monster Party in the sense it's a goofy game with a protagonist smacking horrors with a bat. Honestly, that is where the similarities end. It is a pretty pure "Metroidvania" in that you obtain additional movement as you progress through the game and can then traverse new places.
The game rewards exploration-- I ended up with one of the better weapons of the game relatively early. Terry controls lightning quick and almost too snappy. Hit detection is a little wonky, but save points are frequent and nothing ever felt overly frustrating. The OST is banging.
So what are the cons? Despite the numerous enemy types, they really don't have a lot of diversity. The map is a bit zoomed in (when you get it). There are enemies which can phase through walls and sometimes they don't want to come out. Honestly though, these are minor gripes. If you enjoy sidescrollers which hinge on gameplay over everything else, this is your jam. I actually look forward to anything else from this Dev.

a fun metroidvania all about bashing cryptids, it was a great halloween pick!
Be sure to open any locked door once found, weapons are important to spice up things, there's many monsters after all!
I might check out the other games by ondydev, cuz this was pretty neat
