Good list, and kudos to having a list-article where everything is listed on 1 page.
Nine Sols looks nice, and also a bit similar in style to Bo, Path of the Teal Lotus, which should also be a good game (picked it up a few weeks ago but haven't played it myself yet ... )
Colorful science fiction Metroidvania game BioGun leaves early access, and you can snag it cheap in a Steam sale to celebrate the launch.
It's Hollow Knight with guns. Looks like a cool game, but I'm not sure about forgetting Hollow Knight.
Yea, "for now" bc Silksong is late 2024 at the earliest, 2025 most likely. There's definitely room for both, but doesn't mean it should (or could) be completely forgotten. :)
Not even. It's way more akin to Metroid (you know, the game EVERY metroidvania is derived from). And it's much better because of it.
The only thing this shares with HK is the fact that it's hand drawn. Other than that it's better in every way.
Ha yea, the head dev John put this meme together (below) but it describes it perfectly. XD
Hollow Knight is so up-close melee based so a Metroid/Mega Man mashup is much more accurate for BioGun. It just has hand drawn art assets w a lot of parallax that gives it a Hollow Knight-ish look, but only superficially.

@anast I mean, you could just call Mega Man "Mario with Guns" if you really wanted to.
Funny, bc the art style has been praised by most reviewers and sites as one of the game's highlights. But art is subjective, you're free to dislike it. Everybody has different tastes. :)

Guys, many of you have known me in the N4G community for a long time, but I'm just a small time artist & I was personally involved in this project as a background artist since March. This is hands down the most fun I've ever had working on a project! I'm just a small, small drop in a huge bucket though.
Please help get the word out, so we can bring this to console. The game is a blast! Seriously, a great Metroidvania from start to finish. The reviews have been great so far on Early Access which launched in April. Go check it out. :)
