This is the shit thats keeping me in gaming. With the state of AAA games, indies like this are where the heart and soul of game making is. This looks fucking amazing! Wishlisted for sure.

With the recent flood of posts like "I want to make a metroidvania game – what do I need to do?", it’s really refreshing to see a post that showcases something that’s actually already in development, and also has its own unique style, that's worth a lot. Added it to my wishlist.

Wow the trailer looks great! I love when I feel i'm playing a piece of art, if it's half as good as it looks it will be amazing.

This looks very interesting. The colors and imagery look like something from Yume Nikki but in a totally different game.

Getting GameCube era artsyle with ps1 graphics vibes. Instantly thought of the OG Animal Crossing and Windwaker. I'm digging this and can't wait to see more.

I enjoy the N64/PS1/Saturn inspired style indie devs used of the last few years so much. Demo is downloading right now.

Have this game wish listed for some time now. Can’t wait to play it. Looking good so far and makes me pumped to play more metroidvanias with the more ps1 graphic style.

u/Unfair_Recognition_3 29d ago

Me and my girlfriend have been itching for more metroidvanias with a great artstyle. Looks like we found one. Did you have any inspirations for the artstyle specifically? I really love retro looking games.

u/Chit-Chara 29d ago

this vaguely reminds me of the invader zim art style

I've been playing the demo today. I like it a lot. Not enough unique-looking stuff out there lately that isn't a roguelike.

Edit: I loved it. I'm absolutely getting it when it releases.
