It was previously released on Steam and Playstation. This game won't be for everyone, but it is one of the more unique games I've played and is absolutely gorgeous

I’ll give a pass to games in a series (i.e. “Castlevania: Aria of Sorrow”), but otherwise, tone it down “F.I.S.T.: Forged in Shadow Torch”

I know it’s an issue not limited to Metroidvania, but geez - look at them all

Keep in mind — this is KOMO News, who regularly pushes the “crime” narrative as a political policy, independent of whether it’s accurate or not.

The Lost Crown, Just realized that I missed a charm after I beat the game in c/metroidvanias@infosec.pub

[–] chrisbrummel@infosec.pub 1 points 11 months ago

The other type that I hate — a charm that is only available at the endgame that should appear sooner if it's to have any value to you playing. Case in point: a fast-travel charm in Blast Brigade that is only available as one of the very last acts. Great game, otherwise.

Lone Fungus 2, the sequel to the popular 16-bit-styled Mushroomvania, has just Kick-Started in c/metroidvanias@infosec.pub

[–] chrisbrummel@infosec.pub 1 points 1 year ago

Anyone have any ideas as to why it might not be generating thumbnail previews when creating a post? I checked and Kickstarter and Youtube are doing OpenGraph correctly, so there seems to be something else going on.
