  As a game, Pronty is a lot of fun. Both the exploration and battle mechanics are engaging, interesting and challenging in a way that is well balanced. Original concepts sync easily with a familiar metroidvania framework and you ultimately get a lot of game for your money.

  The good definitely outweighs the bad, and if you’re in the market for a new Metroidvania challenge, you could do far, far worse than Pronty, but in the vast sea of video games vying for your attention, Pronty turns out to be swimming at a depth that’s only slightly above average.

  Pronty may have some minor flaws, but this is overall a very solid Metroidvania that does a lot to set itself apart from the pack. Things like the impressive atmosphere, challenging boss fights, and oodles of worthwhile collectibles keep drawing you further into the experience, while the promise of multiple endings will keep you coming back for more. And though combat feels like it could use a little more tightening up, it’s certainly a unique system that fits well with the underwater setting.

  It’s classy, it’s structurally sound, but I feel like I’ve been down this road several times and it doesn’t have anything that sticks out as a “one more time” moment. Perhaps others will enjoy their voyage under the sea, but I had to surface, pronto.

  Pronty grows well in a giant garden of metroidvanias, though it doesn’t fully blossom. It presents flaws that can dampen the experience yet is unique and innovative enough for those familiar with the genre. The challenges of the various boss fights are fun to tackle, even though the standard combat can be mundane.

  This is one of the most accessible Metroidvanias to embark on. Pronty’s underwater excavation in a city, crawling with well-designed bosses is one for both newcomers and seasoned players of the genre. Combat is lackluster and it doesn’t reinvent in any game-changing capacity, but it sure is a world worth diving deep in.
