Sure, it's just a 90's simulator with no gameplay per se, but if some code can make me happy when I pick up a VHS cassette I think it can't be that bad

Órale, even Guacamelee has Manny Calavera eating his own boney heart out, esé. Metroid gameplay that'd make Gunpei Yokoi proud. 10/10 would Samus again.

Do you want to know how does it feel to die by your own stupidity? Do you want to save damsels and dogs in distress with jetpacks and shotguns?

A beautiful Metroidvania game with a great soundtrack and a wonderfully hamfisted plot. Can't play this enough.
