[@pavlotverdokhlib7627]

Some more feedback after the Steam Festival of Demos: Tartapolis is a cyber-noir adventure game with platforming (and options ot unlock areas and secrets with skills/items/guns- so I guess that fits the Metroidvania criteria?). Gunplay's pretty basic(putting a laser sight on your pistol helps), and there's some RPG elements to it. Fun to play, but it's very much an item-driven point and click adventure with RPG elements for the most part. Combat only happens in certain areas, and it does not seem to be the focus (though there are also boss fights, so it's clearly important). An interesting mix, for sure.

[@ClemmyGames]

Cool, thank you for sharing. That's one to keep an eye on for sure. I was surprised by how zoomed in the camera was though. Was it like that in the demo?

[@matthew74115]

Hey, I'm trying to remember this one anthro metroidvania game I saw on your channel a while ago. I remember it didn't have the most fluid animation, but it had several characters you could be oh, and one of them was a rhino. It might be featured in this video, but I swear I commented on it and I'm not finding my comment in this video. Also, thanks for bringing SuperEpic: The Entertainment Wars to my attention. I bought that game a while ago, and I'm having a lot of fun playing it. I even made my own review of the game.

Rhino metroidvania?? Nothing comes to mind...

[@baalfgames5318]

@@ClemmyGames I found it. You covered it in this video: kzbin.info/www/bejne/rpycZnlqoMZmetU

[@Phirestar]

Already got the money saved in my Steam wallet to get both Will of the Wisps and Silksong (+ OST, of course). I wasn’t much of a fan of the first Ori, but since hearing that the sequel is going for a more open level design with emphasis on player-driven discovery, it sounds like it’s going to be a big improvement over the original game. Also, I think it’s really important to mention that Death’s Gambit is getting a huge - *huge* - free expansion sometime later this year (I think), and among the mountain of new content, one of the changes they’re making is a partial restructure to the game’s world design to make it more metroidvania-like. This goes hand-in-hand with the introduction of new “special powers”, aka ability upgrades. No clue how many will be added, but so far they’ve shown off a double-jump (which looks distinctly familiar to another metroidvania’s double-jump) and some sort of downstrike attack that can open special floor tiles marked with some kind of symbol. The developers have said that this is supposed to make up for the game’s... disappointing / regrettable launch? (I personally don’t know what they’re talking about; I thought Death’s Gambit was fantastic.) But either way, you should go check out their Twitter and see all the teasers they’ve posted, because it’s easily one of the most impressive lists of additions for any one single game update I’ve ever seen. Again: _not_ paid DLC, it is labeled as a straight add-on to the game.

[@ClemmyGames]

Excellent & thanks for the tip on Death's Gambit!

[@DISCO-munication]

Nice, thanks for letting me know. I initially dismissed Death's Gambit as too gory since I tend to avoid such games but this sounds promising. Haven't seen the videos yet but I think I might know which popular metroidvania you're talking about, lol. xD I think Silksong and Ori 2 will be the highlights of 2020 for me too, together with Spiritfarer and Roki, even though they aren't metroidvanias.

I agree its a little busy in lodoss though, it sticks around a little too long and a little too far behind.

[@ignaciollamedo6247]

And 9 years of shadows? Its looks pretty cool

[@ClemmyGames]

Oh snap that looks beautiful! Thanks for sharing!

@3:42: Stolen Assets on that "Hermit" Card... that's ripped straight from Ogre Battle: March of the Black Queen. Hopefully that's just development footage and they'll change it later.

[@ClemmyGames]

Huh! Maybe it was a 3rd party artist or something

[@lifewithnyx9979]

Just wondering any of these games playable on ps4? or just steam?

[@ClemmyGames]

No doubt some of these will be ported

[@lifewithnyx9979]

@@ClemmyGames Many thanks will keep an eye out then for them ! :)

[@sofaking1180]

I wonder, is there any chance that some of these games (like the first five games on the list, as well as the second to last game “Flynn”) release on the switch?

[@ClemmyGames]

Yeah most indies eventually get ported to Switch anyways so count on that!

[@MotiviqueStudio]

Record of Lodoss War? Holy crap... haven't heard that name in a looong time...

[@ClemmyGames]

Yeah it's been awhile

[@M613M]

That Record of Lodoss War is what all 2d platformers should look like. I feel like 99% of them look like some college kid's test game.

[@ClemmyGames]

Looks so good right?

[@legion999]

A lot of great stuff, but I also wish they'd make Rabi Ribi 2 already

[@ClemmyGames]

Yeah! I wonder what they are doing...

[@theriffwriter2194]

I've said for decades, given the choice, I'd rather have a superbly animated stick figure in a game than photo real graphics with jerky, robotic animation. In other words: animation is everything to me. So you can imagine how *Savior* made me cream my jeans. My jaw is still on the floor 😃

[@ClemmyGames]

Sweet. Indeed savior does look awesome but I wonder how that will translate into the entire game

[@theriffwriter2194]

@@ClemmyGames I know. Given my taste/preference it's almost too good to be true.

[@airaaira9955]

Faeland reminds me to Golden Axe

[@ClemmyGames]

Little bit yeah! Quite the classic look

[@reachtothesky921]

Never believed an Israeli game will make it that far to be featured on something like this video but...Damn! Grime looks amazing!

[@ClemmyGames]

Oh cool! Didn't know that.

[@banana_pancake7171]

Beautiful.

Cheers. More here: kzbin.info/www/bejne/b5TOoqyKasuEptk

@@ClemmyGames I saw that one, it's great too! Thank you anyway.

[@edwardjackson8629]

Looks inspired by Symphony of the Night...."INSPIRED"? It's a straight rip off. Though if you're going to go that route, might as well take from the best.

[@ClemmyGames]

Heh. Very much so

[@lowgrasswhite]

Glad to know i'm not alone in thinking that. How could they just straight out copy-paste Alucard's iconic animation? The nerve...

[@HugoBaesJr]

Looks like a modded SotN lol

[@ClemmyGames]

@@HugoBaesJr lol

[@ADHadh]

Symphony of the Night came out in 1997... Games that old are fair game to be ripped off. That said Record of Lodoss War came out in 1990 or so, it's a double whammy of nostalgia.

[@VirusOfCyrus]

@8:21 is that a Bat boos that is trying to "poop" on you?? LOL.

[@ClemmyGames]

Yeah hahaha
