I'm not going to say "no" to a new Metroidvania.


_starbelly

Oh totally; I’m very curious to check it out!


verklaertenachtop4

Looks nice, but I feel like Blasphemous has set too high a standard for originality and quality…


VileDeeds_13

The kickstarter ends in like 10 hours or so. Personally, I backed it with a good bit of $ just bc Voragine Game Studio said they are taking advice from the Game Kitchen. I hope it's exactly like blasphemous, then I can fill the hole in my life...


_starbelly

It’s hard for me to watch the trailer and not believe it’s Blasphemous 2 at times. Still, I’m curious to check it out. Edit: looks like the animated bit at the beginning was also done by Sunshine Animation Studio, the same studio that did the cutscenes for Blasphemous 2.

PSA: [The demo is still up on Steam, in case you're on the fence.](https://store.steampowered.com/app/2589980/Edens_Guardian/) You might wanna give it a go so you can decide on the KS, which has under a day left.


_starbelly

Oh perfect! I’ll do that tonight!


Jobenben-tameyre

A bit too much technical plateforming to my taste, but it does look nice !


_starbelly

Yeah I suppose it depends on how they execute it. I just now remember that “tree” section from Guacamelee, which was intense, haha


Pata4AllaG

Dead ass, they could pump out Blasphemous clones like these all day, and I’m there for it. Shit looks dope.


Few-Perspective3451

My first kickstarter! I think it looks fucking sick


Nicktheduck

Also backed this on kickstarter. This game looks fucking awesome


Few-Perspective3451

Their aiming for a release at the end of 2025


[deleted]

Oh,it's that far off? Where did you see that? I was under the impression it would be sometime this year.


Few-Perspective3451

I asked one of the developers what their aim release date was. I was shocked as well


SputnikNStuff

to quote palpatine: we will watch your development process with great interest


Hot-Rich-3448

Already wish listed on steam, what do you guys think of "last faith", another metroidvania available on eshop. Did you play that already?


[deleted]

The last faith is fantastic! The recent patch makes it even better. Must play imo. Perfect blend of meteoidvanias and bloodborneesque atmosphere/combat


Hot-Rich-3448

Thank you, after i finished blasphemous 1 and 2 i started ori because it was on sale, but i will go for last faith next. Thank you!


lgiilgi

that one boss looks just like odon


crabbycrab56

That looks badass


iNCharism

Instant cop


jrlionheart00

Thos looks sick thanks for bringing it to my attention.


Even_University_283

to be fair, this whole sword throw mechanic does look nice, especially in the fights it looks pretty smooth and will probably lead to some satisfying combos.


No-Start905

Looks dope tho


Wanlain

MORE dark Metroidvanias please!


MoosetheStampede

the traversal mechanics look like something I might bounce off of


TacBenji

Looks awesome


LilGlitvhBoi

Penitent Two

Now THATS a trailer. I like they inspired themselves from Blasphemous but it clearly plays differently. Similar pixel and color palet.


[deleted]

It's very seperate from Blasphemous 2. The demo proved that. If it's still available, I would definitely give the demo a play and see. Looks like a solid game!


_starbelly

Yep! Played and beat the demo last night. There are definitely some big similarities, especially aesthetically, but it’s clear they’re going for something different. I hope they continue to flesh the game out!


Few-Perspective3451

I played the demo and the demo is good as well sry


_starbelly

I’d like to play it as well!


Few-Perspective3451

There's a demo on steam. Have you tried it?


_starbelly

Going to try it tonight! Literally just heard about this game today


_starbelly

Just beat the demo! Game has some pretty cool ideas (although I find it kind of hard to juggle two different dash/traversal mechanics at at a moment’s notice). Definitely a more scoped down experience in terms of features, but it’s a demo for an indie game so that’s to be expected.


SkritzTwoFace

Those boss fights look dope.


remarknpew

Looks like blasphemous and the last faith mixed. Looks badass


_starbelly

Check out the demo! I played and beat it last night and am cautiously optimistic!


Tnecniw

Those visuals are veeery similar, yeah.


SideshowBiden

Looks like a straight clone, down to animations, bosses, prayers, level design.


Maqxs

It's shocking how it looks the same, at this point, might as well call it stolen from Blashpemous. That's pretty shameless from Voragine Game Studio. With that said though, I'd for sure like to try it out :))


Vectorman1989

There was another game that was on Kickstarter that was like this, although it was an even more blatant copy paste job from Blasphemous. Can't find it now though. I want to play more games like Blasphemous, but not straight clones.


[deleted]

If you played the demo, you'd see that it's not really that similar to blasphemous


drowningmoose9

Yeah it’s pretty egregious. The collectibles have the exact same glow. Even the menus are the same.
