Decently solid Metroidvania that tragically stands in the shadow of a giant. But there are certainly worse things to be than a stripped down version of one of the greatest games of all time.

No I'm not gonna talk about the game, play it yourself. Go in blind. Trust me. All I'm gonna say is that I'm very happy Daniel Mullins is getting to take on progressively larger scale projects and I can't wait to see what he comes up with next.

The best way to talk about this game is by spoiling absolutely nothing. I'll just say that it's very much worth playing based on the unique premise and interesting directions the story takes, and Daniel Mullins is perfectly equipped to handle both. That being said, I do have one nitpick to get off my chest. The strength of the genre parodies is WILDLY inconsistent , and just in general how much you'll get out of them depends on how familiar you are (or aren't) with the games they're spoofing. There is somewhat of a justification for this, but I guess it was worth noting. There are times where moments of the game can feel scattershot and directionless but trust me, it all comes together in the end. A game like this is only going to appeal to a very specific type of nerd (like myself) and definitely isn't for everyone, but I'm glad it exists and that I got to experience it. It's just kind of hard to rate this as a "video game" for reasons that only make sense if you've played all the way through it.
