The Xbox 360 boasted a small selection of Metroidvania games that might has been gone under the radar of many harcore fans.
In Worldless you're taking control of a blue entity. It's a metroidvania where you explore a lot, and there is a spin on turn-based combat as well. Is that enough fun to play?
The recent influx of games marketing themselves as Metroidvania or Roguelikes makes me wonder if developers are truly making their visions, or just chasing trends.
Metroidvania games are fun as hell. Rouguelike stuff sure maybe but not the first.
Roguelikes are just as good as Metroidvania. But the article does have a point that both are stifling creativity by developers going the "safe" route with either of these.
Nope I disagree, indie games are more imaginative then ever before. If anything is killing creativity in gaming period... Its live services games that are doing that as far as AAA games go. Look what happened to the TRUE reason behind the canceled Hero mode from Overwatch 2.
CreSpirit has just published a new trailer for its new game TEVI, a bullet-hell metroidvania co-developed with GemaYue and Ein Lee, coming to Nintendo Switch, PlayStation 4 and 5, and PC via Steam still in 2023.
