Great Metroid-like! The feeling of getting overpowered with weapon can get a bit ridiculous (love it!!) Exploration is fun, upgrades feel worthwile and boss fights are fun and fair (or easy with enough upgrades) Music was ok and at some points repetitive but nowhere near a deal breaker Well worth the price!

I like more the Metroid side of a MV, than the vania. This is a fantastic game which reminded me a lot to Super Metroid. Very well done, the exploration, upgrades, map layout with qol features like the camera, fast travel from the beginning, it’s all there. Highly recommended for fans of 2D Metroid games. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

feels like a cheap Metroid. i would pay $8 for it. main character does not look cool in game like he does in the game art. Samus from metroid looks cool. The belmonts look cool. if the main character looked like the art work that would be cool. he looks like toad/turtle. He just doesn't look badass and that is how a main character should look. At least eventually. From what I can see the outfit only changes colors…
