"If you have to double jump to get anywhere, you haven't coded a double jump. You've coded a crappy jump. Why not just make it a single jump that spans the same distance?"
"Because double jumps are cool."

Zetria needs work. The jumps have problems. In addition to single jumps not covering that much space, Zetria has no Coyote time. Most platformers allow you to cheat a little, jumping just after you run off a platform. It makes movement seem more fluid. Zetria doesn't have that. It's a little tough to notice, thanks to the double jump, but when you need the double jump to move to higher ground, jump over a chasm, or anything else, it's frustrating to miss the jump and jumping ends up feeling choppy.

Also, while were at problems, maybe get some controller support. It's fine for early releases to lean on keyboard & mouse, and not everyone has a controller, but whenever I have to do a different action than jumping (reload, talk, etc.), I end up having to find the jump key again before I can continue.

In short, Zetria needs some more time in the oven.

This game is free, and still I feel like I overpaid.

Jokes are weak at their best. At worst, they're just references. Stop reminding me of what else I could be doing then playing this game.

"She says 'nuts' a lot! Laugh! It's funny!"
"Oooh, it's the 'Klaatu Barada Nikto' joke from 'Army of Darkness.' What you should do is laugh. What you shouldn't do is look up which streaming services have 'Army of Darkness' and watch that instead."

The combat is bare bones. The one thing that's different is the skill "Encourage." Use it and the rest of your party forgets their special skill for a different special skill until you use "Calm" to set it back. Why can't they just have both the Encourage skill and their original special? Did the devs mistake difficulty for depth?

I got a bad end, but I wasn't arsed to care enough to get the good one.
