Fixed. Thanks!

After you play a bit, I’d love to hear what you think

I was surprised by the focus on Ultros, but not Animal Well. That game is already one of the genre’s hallmarks. I liked Ultros, but know it’s not for everyone. Animal Well isn’t as traditional an entry, but a smash hit.

Yeeeaaahhh…🧐 I think that snake isn’t alone. Some of the other screenshots feature some mamajamas.

Out of curiosity, if someone posts a YouTube link and you auto play the video, what gets shared with YouTube?

I’d love Apollo-level inline video playing.

Keep up the great work!

Yeah, I’ll definitely wait to see the reviews, but the early access feedback is positive, but not glowing. I did see some reviews mention that it didn’t really add much to the genre, but was still fun.

Joss Whedon became a doctor?!?

Aggghhh! Now I don’t need to play it… 🤷🏼🫠

Here’s a new interview with the developers.

And this is just a sample. I think people have cataloged boss animations, etc

😏 If you think this is bad, you should see Deviator. It literally stole sprites from HK.

Those, and for me, Possesor(s) (because I loved their first game, Hyper Light Drifter), and MIO (because if Nintendo showcased it, it’s likely good)

According to folks who played the demo during Steam Next Fest, it was pretty good. 🤞🏻

Happy to participate in a post. I’m also wanting to do a “Best of '24” in a few months.

1. Hollow Knight
2. Ori 1
3. Ori 2
4. Prince of Persia: Lost Crown
5. Super Metroid
6. Nine Sols
7. Animal Well
8. BioGun
9. HAAK
10. Guacamele 2

4 & 6-8 are from just this year, so it’s been a good year for me.

Agreed. I’m working on the Prince of Persia DLC, and then switching to the new Zelda…

I have not. I see it getting decent reviews (80-85%-ish). Between this and other high profile releases, I think it’ll be in my backlog

For those interested, !metroidvanias@infosec.pub

If you have a PC or Steam Deck, they have a demo you can try out

Congrats!!🎉
