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.

Some will say it's too short or too easy. I think they're both correct depending on your gaming experience but I think it's one of the more cohesive MVs that doesn't feel like there's filler. The controls also feel really good and I really enjoyed the music and atmosphere. It's battling for my top 3 MVs right now.

Dude Haiku was perfection. I haven't 100%-ed a game in a long ass time but couldn't help myself with that one.

I hope they make another, I loved every moment. I really like that it doesn't overstay it's welcome and think more MVs should have a similar game time length to balance out all the large MVs like Hollow Knight.
