I just picked this one up Thursday, and I've been enjoying it so far. It's giving me a Metroid vibe for sure. The level up system is somewhat similar to Dark Souls and when you die, you lose your currency at the spot of death. I'll dig more into this one over the weekend.

This one initially released back in 2018 and I didn't really get into it until now on PS5. It's a beautiful hand drawn 2D, action/adventure platformer/metroidvania, where you're able to change forms as you discover them to help solve environmental puzzles and combat the various enemies you encounter. I've unlocked 3 forms so far, and each one varies from the other. Pig form allows you to sniff the air and find hidden switches or chests, as well as use various magical abilities. The snake form allows you to stick to mossy walls, spit venom that really wrecks enemies and eventually a dash bash that destroys small rocks blocking your progress. The frog form is basically a warrior with a hook shot/Grappling hook tongue that helps with platforming and reaching those high up areas. I'm about half way through and it's been a decent ride so far. Definetly worth a look if you're into this genre of games.

A friend of mine recommended this one to me and I've been really having a blast with it so far. It has a very retro, Simons Quest vibe to with lots of gore and good/evil choices throughout the game. I'm gonna dig into this more over the weekend but so far, so good.

I had the chance to try this out during the Steam Next Fest and I'll definetly pick it up once it releases. Reminds me a lot of Blasphemous, also a 2D metroidvania that released sometime last year. It has a very gothic/Castlevania type look to it and the gameplay is fairly tight. I can already tell I'll be dropping some F-Bombs while playing this one.

This looks like something right up my alley. 2D 16-bit style graphics, tight gameplay with a pinch of souls like combat sprinkled in. It was just delayed until June and will be releasing on all platforms.

I recently picked this up on my switch and fell in love with this game. It's a 2D metroidvania style action adventure kinda reminiscent of symphony of the night. You play as a little priestess named Lily and all your attacks and abilities are done through spirits you've purified during the game. There's hand to hand, swords, clubs etc, as well as magic ranged attacks. You also get permanent abilities like swimming underwater, double jump and such through the same spirits you acquire. Graphics are beautiful hand drawn sprites that move quite nicely. The gameplay is really spot on. There's some points where you'll be stuck in an animation and unable to dodge, but those are avoidable IMO. The music and sound is incredible as well. This is my kind of game so I may come off as a bit bias but if you're a fan of this style of game, you should dig it as well.

I’ve been playing the hell out of this recently. It’s a very gory, 2d metroidvania/souls style game that has a very cool art style. The game plays really well and the story has been interesting.
