Whatcha been playing?

I’ve been playing caves of qud 1.0!

Super stoked it finally got to 1.0. been following this game for ages and it’s so so good. Highly recommend you check it out!!

Ori and the Blind Forest which I enjoyed, although I was expecting a metroidvania

What genre do you think the game belongs to? Just a normal platformer?

I would say, while combat is not the focus in the game, it still has all the trappings of a metroidvania.

More puzzle platformer with progression in the form of abilities you unlock.

For why I don’t think it’s a metroidvania, it’s because there’s no backtracking when you get a new ability (except for small optional stuff), you start from the center and go to each area in order and the areas themselves are mostly linear.
