Beautiful Metroidvania with a clever combat system that sparks curiosity about discovering a magical world.
Worldless is an excellent, intelligent and well-packaged video game, capable of both offering brilliant platform phases and representing an extremely focused and addictive Metroidvania. Supported by a story to discover, it is a video game that focuses on both visual impact and its combat system, managing to be incredibly focused in both lights in an enveloping way. It's really a lot, a lot of stuff for a team making its first video game that arrives in such an aggressive and fierce market.
Worldless is a beautiful game that blends the joy of exploring a Metroidvania with seriously compelling timing-based combat.
Worldless shines when players enter battle with a new opponent for the first time, discovering its moves and weaknesses. It’s fun to watch for patterns and create attack combos, with plenty of tension added when trying to perform the Absorption move. Platforming isn’t as complex as combat but adds variety. The mostly abstract world and limited story will be the biggest stumbling block for most players. The game often comes close to pretentiousness without crossing that line. Worldless is not as poetic as it aims to be but offers a carefully crafted set of mechanics that work very well together.
In a year as saturated with great games as 2023, Worldless represents one of its latest surprises, a metroidvania that manages to conquer the player with its original combat system and a minimalist aesthetic that fits perfectly. Undoubtedly, a great presentation work for Noname Studios.
Worldless is not going to be for everyone. The harsh difficulty of the combat, and the thin plot can make it tough to move forward. However, there's satisfaction to be found in clearing the title's challenges. Combined with the splashy visuals, the adventure is worth undertaking if you're up for the task.

Summary Worldless is set at a time where the rules of existence remain undefined. Players will explore a shapeless world of two realms, one filled with entities forming their growth and understanding, the other is the place they aspire to. This inevitably thrusts them into a war against polarities in a battle for transcendence. In this 2D Act...
