Lol, I love the inclusion of cheat codes like they're as big of a concern as malware. Won't someone think of the children?! I found my son playing GTA5 with bighead mode on *sobs uncontrollably*.

This whole thing sounds like the "drugs in Halloween candy" scare, but this seems to actually be real. Neat.

P.S. I don't know if GTA5 actually has bighead mode.

"Blaster Master?" takes long drag on cigarette "I haven't heard that ~~name~~ game in years."

Man, I remember playing the OG on NES. Didn't know they remade it... And made it all anime lookin'? Neat. If you'll excuse me, I must go and tidy my crypt now.

I recently picked up the Castlevania Anniversary Collection. For all the Metroidvanias I've played as an adult, I never really got too into them as a kid. Gotta make up for that at some point, lol. Symphony of the Night isn't on there, but I don't want to start mid storyline (I'm kidding). My biggest fear is playing Castlevania will just make me more impatient for the next season of Castlevania Nocturne.

I've been playing a bunch of Rusted Moss lately. It's a Twin Stick Shooter Metroidvania, which is appreciably different from the Hack and Slash type I normally play. Getting used to mouse-and-keyboarding a platform heavy game took a bit. And boy are there platforms.

While elements of Metroidvanias are there, this game leans way further into the platforming. I would say it's closer to Celeste than Hollow Knight. Imagine Celeste, but instead of a magic dash and climbing gear Madeline had a gun and a chatty grappling hook.

Anyways, I've been enjoying the heck outta this game and wanted to share. While you're here I will accept any and all Metroidvania recommendations. Except for Cookie Cutter probably.
