Team Ladybug, known for their Metroidvanias, has released Blade Chimera, a side-scrolling action game featuring Shin, a demon hunter with a unique weapon named Lux. Lux is not only a sword but also serves multiple purposes, such as a shield and a jetpack, thus enriching the game’s exploration mechanics. Set in a demon-infested Osaka, the game integrates Japanese folklore into its enemy designs. However, despite its clever mechanics, the game suffers from pacing issues, as some aspects of progression feel less thoughtful and rely heavily on repetitive badge upgrades to unlock new areas.
Shin explores a demon-infested Osaka as a hunter, using various weapons, especially the multifunctional sword Lux, to combat folklore-inspired demons.
Blade Chimera, Team Ladybug's latest action game, combines engaging exploration with a unique demon-slaying sword character, yet struggles with progression pacing.
