  • It seems like it, but isn’t crystal clear. The Steam listing has “online co-op” listed, but Artplay doesn’t talk about it in their press. I’ve seen other places highlight it, but they could be mistaken.

  • Thanks! How are you viewing it when you use Lemmy? In a browser? Voyager? Curious as I don’t think playback is consistent across platforms.

    The Last Vanguard, a toon-styled metroidvania, announces it's coming out of Steam Early Access and will release on PC on May 15

  • The Early Access reviews are “mostly positive”, so here’s to hoping they iron out the kinks. I like the style, but will be cautiously optimistic until I see the final reviews.

  • Last year felt like the best year for releases, and this year has a ton of bangers already and may end up beating 2024.

    There are some great releases on the horizon. I’m about to post about the new Metroid and the dystopian Pac-Man metroidvania.

    Good times.

    • Metal band Voivod announced a Kickstarter for their upcoming run-n-gun metroidvania, Voivod: The Nuclear Warrior

    • New York Times Interactive Feature — Why We Love to Get Lost in Games: The Enduring Appeal of Metroidvanias

    Jump

  • I was surprised by the focus on Ultros, but not Animal Well. That game is already one of the genre’s hallmarks. I liked Ultros, but know it’s not for everyone. Animal Well isn’t as traditional an entry, but a smash hit.

    • Momodora: Moonlit Farewell, the popular 5th entry in the metroidvania series, is releasing on consoles on Feb. 6th

  • Yeeeaaahhh…🧐 I think that snake isn't alone. Some of the other screenshots feature some mamajamas.

  • Out of curiosity, if someone posts a YouTube link and you auto play the video, what gets shared with YouTube?

  • Those, and for me, Possesor(s) (because I loved their first game, Hyper Light Drifter), and MIO (because if Nintendo showcased it, it’s likely good)

    • Mandragora, a souls-like action-RPG metroidvania, announces an April 17, 2025 release date for all major platforms

  • Happy to participate in a post. I'm also wanting to do a "Best of '24" in a few months.

    1. Hollow Knight
    2. Ori 1
    3. Ori 2
    4. Prince of Persia: Lost Crown
    5. Super Metroid
    6. Nine Sols
    7. Animal Well
    8. BioGun
    9. HAAK
    10. Guacamele 2

    4 & 6-8 are from just this year, so it's been a good year for me.

  • I have not. I see it getting decent reviews (80-85%-ish). Between this and other high profile releases, I think it'll be in my backlog
