Both attacks and jumping are executed with the face buttons. When rushing to dash and slash at enemies, the controls are responsive and feel adequately mapped on the controller. However, moving doesn’t feel as solid since this is done through the analog stick only. At times, your character could end falling off a cliff or platform because of the way the stick makes them move. For a side-scroller, d-pad support would’ve been appropriate. Sadly, there is no option to customize the controls, which could have remedied this issue.
