very basic, short, but well-designed metroidvania. dan was cooking when he made this and iji. soundtrack is a bop too. one of the few games that actually does something unique with difficulty levels beyond "we made some numbers bigger lmao".

if there was a tier list for games that cause screen burn-in most easily/commonly on the steam deck, hero core would be S-tier

Very fun action game with simple visuals. Nothing boring here.

RATING: Great

A solid little search action/STG hybrid with a neat 1-bit aesthetic. Normal mode is pretty reasonable to clear with 100% even for newcomers to STGs, but hard mode certainly lives up to the name. There's also a bonus campaign that's pretty interesting.

This is a small but extremely well designed Metroidvania that’s very open ended. I think it strikes a good balance in how much it lets you choose your own path through it, and is also just very fun to play through. Big fan.

A fun little indie metroidvania. Its free so there's no reason not to play it :)
