This is a very well-done little Metroidvania. The action and movement are superb, and the skillset was rather unique, particularly the dash upgrade, probably my favorite one. The music is also great, with a blend of genres to add some life to the decrepit atmosphere. Overall a fun world to search through. With that though, the game is somewhat short, and I felt that the last boss came rather abruptly. Even so,…

Metroid Fusion 2 EDIT: I just finished the game. Cleared it with 88% completion rate and took me a bit under 4 hours to finish because I died multiple times and had to backtrack lol. Highly recommend this one if you're a fan of Metroidvania games especially at the low price point!

Missed an important item and ended up in a virtually impossible chase scene with no way back, ruining my save... meh. I found the game unsurprising and a bit boring, I’d recommend it only if you desperately need your metroidvania fix and have played all the best ones already.
