Also, between Fusion (4) and Dread (5) there's a 19 year gap. Sure, some remakes appeared but if I wanted something new I had to rely on Super Metroid ROM hacks or obscure fangames. Hell, I even tried to make my own Metroid fangame in Gamemaker when I was like 10 or 12.

entirely through crazy speedrunning tricks. Other games from the genre like Hollow Knight didn't click with me, though, I guess I like the sci-fi setting more. Super Metroid is my favourite, the alien claustrophobic atmosphere is great, the movement is satisfying, you can pull some crazy moves (...)

I really like the Metroid series, especially the 2D titles, was a fan since I was little. I find the metroidvania genre very interesting to implement, like blocking certain paths that require specific powerups then backtracking the map to reach it, or even finding ways to skip that obstacle (...)

Hellwares battle UI mock-up. It needs to show: - up to 6 characters - names and portraits - up to 10 hp - attack cooldowns, keys and selected attack - human player number (if needed) - team color (if needed) I need some feedback before implementing it, is it ok? Too cluttered? #HELLWARES #gamedev

Hellwares battle UI mockup, made to figure out the positions and how much space they occupy at maximum capacity: 6 characters, each with their own portrait, name, and colors, up to 10 hp, 4 attacks with cooldowns and assigned keys. The arena only has two characters but that's irrelevant, they are here to show where the player number (p1, p2) and team color would be placed.

Was walking past this building and through the window saw this backrooms-ass room, so I accidentally took the coolest picture ever due to the window's reflection

A backrooms-ass room with a twilight sky and trees seemingly imposed over it in a dream-like fashion (it's the reflection of the window)

Other stuff to do: - Update sprites for all six characters (animate, render, import, assign) - Implement two more attacks for Seymour - Pattern choosing mechanic for human players - Balancing attacks and timers - Update the DAMN UI for character stats - Dash mechanic maybe #HELLWARES

FYI the HUGE number of AI slop at GamesCom's opening night live is not a sign that the industry has normalized AI. It's a ploy to make you believe that. These games are all by the same 3 or 4 publishers. This is a concerted effort to make consumers accept AI.
