I'm not sure Vomitoreum said much of substance about its themes of sexual violence, decay, revenge, and so on. The gunplay is surprisingly simplistic even compared to the game it's based on, is pretty unsatisfying, and quite easy. The Samus ball thing makes me feel woozy. The backtracking gets confusing and it all gets worse when you have to rely on your flashlight being a buggy little npc that floats around you and often doesn't go where you want it to. There's a lot of annoying little things in this game.

Despite all that, I can't help but kinda like it. The art is fucking gorgeous and the novelty of an FPS metroidvania lasted long enough to get me through Vomitoreum with an at least somewhat positive opinion. I want to try more gzdoom games independent from the classics...they seem like a fun area to explore.
