The Rogue Prince of Persia early access review - Cute and deadly

Ubisoft has teamed up with a Dead Cells developer to create their own roguelike platformer, and it has the makings of a winning combo.

I am not in love with this artstyle but if the gameplay is as crisp as one should expect from Evil Empire I will probably give this a chance.
- Gameplay wise it reminds me of Guacamelee but with uninspired and uglier art style.
  
  Preferences are wild. I think the art looks gorgeous and the animation looks incredibly fluid. The art style doesn't seem uninspired at all too me.
I really like the art style and animations. I like the soft-touched looks to things and the unique characters.
The Rogue Prince of Persia does not seem like it comes even close to the greatness of Dead Cells. Am I missing something?
- "New early access game that I haven't played can't be as good as one of the best and most successful entries in the entire genre."
  
  Like... I get it, and personally I'm going to wait for 1.0, but it's definitely way too early to be making statements like that.
  
  It is my personal impression based on what I have seen so far though.
