"Igavanias" as they're called on his kickstarter page, are the specific kind of metroidvania you had, starting with Symphony of The Night, moving forward to every other castlevania game I've played on DS. The Arias and the Portraits, what have you. They're my favorite genre of game, from all the genres. And that's pretty much why I've began working on 100RTBD, because I hadn't played one of these in forever and I wanted to make one that would be enjoyed by people. RPG elements, exploration, items and skills and achievements and what not.
All because of my love of Metroidvanias. This was of course my main inspiration behind 100RTBD, and I hope it'll be a good 'one of these', with as much originality as I can.
So donate to Iga's kickstarter! I'm all for it and I hope the project will go smoothly - as I know these things can go sideways, but I have faith in the result.
And as for myself, I'll keep on making my robot game with the world shifting and the weird story and now a special room where you'll fight an optional boss!
Time spent on the project so far: 427 hours
Currently working on: #igavania special
