A Musical Metroidvania, Laser Teddybears, and a giant Halberd – sound interesting? Or at least like an acid trip? You might be interested in 9 Years of Shadows – a metroidvania by Halberd Studios and Published by Freedom Games (a name you really should be keeping an eye on for indie cult classics).

I also enjoy metroidvanias! Thanks for the thoughtful review 🙂
Nice Review! I had this on my Steam Wishlist and was notified it came out today. Hopefully it runs well on the steam deck…
Was this the god mode tested boss fight game?
😢 mtroidVnia it not my way . I… pass this
Sad about the locks. You'd think designers would be better about that by now.
How long is the campaign?
Oh this looks absolutely my jam. Thanks for the review! Will wait for some bug fixes before purchase, and maybe there will be a Switch version, but the graphics would look great on a monitor. Anyway awesome review!
Yeah I legit cannot beat the first boss. I really want to love this game but that difficulty spike is crazy. The fact you need ranged attacks and you cannot heal while moving just adds a layer of difficulty. Agree with your review.
darn i was looking forward to this one, but that shield/hp bar combined with
requiredranged attack that only gets worse later on? think that's a deal breaker for me…..
