Having writing be my current source of income has come with the adverse effect of making me enjoy playing games on keyboard and mouse less. While you can play Rusted Moss with a controller, it recommends playing with keyboard and mouse, and I think it's worthwhile to do so. The combination of your movement tools, alongside a very strong suite of engaging boss fights make Rusted Moss one of the better indie metroidvanias on a gameplay level. Unfortunately, when it comes to atmosphere, progression, and exploration I feel it falls a little flat. I feel like this game could've used one more major upgrade to your toolkit, maybe an alternative grenade or something.
