It's a kirby game I had to actually look up the maps outside of the game to figure out where to go and there's some paths that don't actually lead you to a boss but instead some goal area that doesn't get you any closer to completing the game, then it sends you back to the hub area. It's not really how a metroidvania would be designed because it's kinda important the map closely resemble the levels instead of it still being normal levels with the map only being a grid to show how they connect, basically it's totally unnecessary to try making kirby a metroidvania. The smash power is cool though.
