Metroidvania is a subgenre of video games focused on guided non-linearity and utility-gated exploration. The term, popularized by video game critic Jeremy Parish, is a portmanteau of Metroid and Castlevania.

This is a cloned community from Reddit. I intend to hand over mod support to the original mods should they choose to migrate to Lemmy.

Yes, thanks for warning! It's really unexpected. As I wrote below - when we were choosing the technical name - vampires hadn't come out on steam yet ^^"
