Gato Roboto looks very nice. But unfortunately, Mewtroid already exists!
It even recently got a sequel, Mewtroid 2: Return of Sameow

Awesome. I just bought it so I won't forget in the coming weeks if I'm busy. Game looks super cute. Hope it's actually fun and well designed too.

That's a really low price. I don't mind if the game is short, but hopefully it's not, like, two hours.
It could also reference Styx without being quite so on-the-nose.
Came in here to post exactly this. They clearly took this idea and ran with it.
Its cat Metroid. suit is similar to a varia suit. What makes it even Metroid is the map structure of the levels clearly.
This game looks good as heck! Super inclined to get it, but I'll prolly wait for reviews to roll in.
Grabbed the pre-order for Switch. Only cost me $6.70 total so why not? It's a Metroid game that looks like Minit/Downwell. Should be fun.

I'm reporting this post for trying to take the word "meowtroidvania" away from me.

I just started the game 3 minutes ago. I actually had to pause the game because I saw the most cringeworthy thing in the introduction.
Bad sign so far. Lame meme joke.
In the 30 seconds of the game, you are given some coordinates: 4 2 0 6 9

I've been playing it for 2 hours so far, it's one of the better metroidvania's I've played in a while.
Also I can't resist how fucking cute the cat is.

Cleared the first sector, now onto the next one, Magmoor Caverns Heat core system. Very nice game, tight controls and map design, the cat is cute as hell, I love how his face changes whenever you shoot or spin-jump. I hope they sell well enough to make a bigger game next time.
I've just about completed 2/3 of the areas to go to the final area and im at 1:45 hours.
It is a fun game, I just wish there was a reason to fight enemies. In other metroidvanias they drop health or ammo or currency but in this game they don't so you are almost better off platforming around them lol
Fun game. Super short (average playtime should come to 2 to maybe 3 hours at most) and easy, but it was worth the 6 or so bucks. It's more a metroid-lite though, it's mostly linear and you'd be hard-pressed to ever get stuck in the game as you're constantly being pushed forward. But it was a lot of fun to play as a little inbetween.
I feel it's a great companion piece to last years Minit, which was more a condensed Link's Awakening and this is a more condensed Metroid. Definitely recommended.

The password decoder? You go the very first room of the game and jump into the wrecked ship.
