Timespinner is a very solid Metroidvania that threw me back 15 years ago with its nostalgic feeling that is all around it. Its most unique aspect is that it has some light RPG mechanics in the form of different weapon types that you can mix and match to your liking, a leveling system and companions. Considering that it is quite short, I did enjoy these little additions to your standard Metroidvania. I didn't catch much of the story, it obviously involves time travel, but that felt more like it was included to jump between the same map at different times than to have a deep story or characters.
