It’s my favorite gaming genre by far. I’m currently finishing a run in Lone Fungus which has become a surprise hit for me.
What are you playing?
Note to Reddit /r/metroidvania mods:
I noticed there was no metroidvania community here yet so I decided to create one. If the original mods of that community want to join send me a message. I do not want to be a mod, I just wanted to see my favorite community on Lemmy.
Two that come to mind for me are Axiom Verge (an excellent Metroid-like game), and After Death (which isn’t too impressive at first, but I found it to be kind of relaxing to play. Except I could never figure out how to damage the final boss).
I’m interested in seeing more lesser-known games.
