AM2R

Now before you bite my head off, I got the most enjoyment out of this game over any other Metroidvania for a few reasons:

>long-ass waiting period culminating with a release on Metroid's 30th
>one-man love letter to a franchise that hasn't gotten a solid game in around a decade, and actually feels like it's a legitimate Nintendo game
>played it through in a single sitting with the rest of /v/ sharing secrets and exciting moments together
>for a brief time, Metroid threads were good again

I've got nothing but love for this game, and while there are plenty of other Metroidvanias out there that definitely are better from a critical standpoint, none of them have made me as happy to play them as AM2R has.

Don't really have a favorite but I've been giving Rabi Ribi a go as of late.
If you can get past the moeshit art style you'll be rewarded with a good game.

I could not get into La Mulan. The jumping mechanic was garbage.

This. I mean to be fair they set out to make a game reminiscent of old nes style gameplay. But frankly that shit was crap even back then.

Won't ever happen. The devs broke up.
