You're not wrong, but it's been almost a decade of a-little-too-heavy-inspired by metroidvanias of Hollow Knight's style and mechanics. It's wild how influential those 2 games are and how much devs struggle to break free of it. That said, I still love a lot of these games.

    Hell yea. Need more sci-fi, shooty Metroidvanias.

    I like tight melee combat, don't get me wrong, but sometimes I just wanna shoot and explore.

    Although, I'm always apprehensive with phrases like "master fast-paced combat" in game descriptions. I really hope this game isn't too sweaty on the combat expectations and focuses more on the exploration/discovery aspects.

    There are about 4k words total approximately across flavor, dialogue and info. Spanish is definitely something I'll be looking to translate for in the future! I'll follow up with you if/when I have some funding available for it!

    Do people consider 3d metroidvanias a real thing now? I was under the impression that games like this and metroid prime were considered zelda-likes with platforming mechanics

    Looks decent. Will face stiff competition for my money though as Metroidvania is probably the only genre even more oversaturated than Soulslikes these days. At first I thought it was a sequel to the game Eastern Exorcist, but different developers it seems.
