it's an upressed Super Metroid tunnelrunner about LOVE, HOPE, and REDEMPTION

Are game developers / writers ever going to be able to describe their own game without relying on the list of 100 Sanctioned Buzzwords and/or direct namedropping of other games ("It's like X, but with Y!"). How do they actually talk to each other when they're making the damn thing. Do they watch speedruns and take notes? Do the artists go in and add just enough color depth to Metroid pixel tiles just enough to not go to jail? The indies sometimes seem almost worst than the AAA's as far as the sheer unabashed plagiarism that abounds, because everyone knows they Just Need to Eat, and they're begging for your Donation-As-Entertainment-Experience, so let's put out this literal clone of another game, and we'll put some deep, cryptic, emotional textboxes in it somewhere to justify its existence, obviously this will elevate it beyond the source material, I mean, "inspiration."

(Sorry, this is just me being mad that my Actual Original Ideas will never get made, and also this was one of the mornings I didn't get to eat.)

Just sayin, that spin jump looks IDENTICAL to SM.

"Speaking personally, at the height of the bubble, all the talk about 'games for moms' began to grate a bit," recalls Area/code's Cancienne. "After a while, it was hard for me not to hear 'but a middle-aged woman in Ohio won't understand that' as a dismissive, reductive, and small-minded excuse to dumb down gameplay and hew to established conventions."

In Cancienne's view, in fact, the laser-focus on an imagined, mass-market "moms and middle-aged women" demographic might have been where the Facebook boom began to waver: "You had a huge population of product managers, game designers, and developers making games that they themselves didn't like," he says.

"What's worse, they were supposedly making them for this cohort that existed as a cartoon -- the middle aged mom sitting at home, bored with her life," he adds. "Given this mostly male, mostly disinterested group of people cynically making games for this other group that existed primarily as a stereotype, it's not hard to see how the bubble burst."
