Bloodstained: Ritual of the Night 1

Bought it earlier. Been going at it for hours. Amazing so far.
https://store.steampowered.com/app/692850/Bloodstained_Ritual_of_the_Night/
For anyone who hasn't heard of this, it was a kickstarter by Koji Igarashi, a senior guy at Konami who helped build the castlevania series. Obviously since Konami owns the rights to castlevania, names and such were changed in this game. It's supposed to be a spiritual successor to the metroidvania style of games. It's a side scroll platformer with Japanese RPG elements, etc..
I *HIGHLY* recommend anyone who likes metroidvania style games check this out.

They really did a AAA game with it. I cracked out hard and 100% the map and got most achievements in the first few days haha.

No idea. I didn't even know this one was being done until right before it came out. I imagine they will probably try to sequel this since it was such a success.
BTW, there is replay value after you beat it. There is a 'bad ending' you can get super early, I did on accident and reverted to my save. The good ending is far more complicated to get. I did have to hit a guide twice during because I couldn't figure out the hints. After all of that though, there is a ton of achievements to get, the 100% map, and a new game+ mode where you can start again but keep most of your gear and shards, up the difficulty or not, etc. Some of the shards you can't max out in one run like the silver knight.
I went swords my first play through, doing whips on my second. Something I also didn't know until after I beat the game is that certain weapons have specific moves right, but if you 'master' it by doing that attack enough it unlocks it for ALL the weapons of that type. So when you get the early game weapons it pays off to spam their moves a lot because a lot of late game weapons don't have the same move set.
