If you’re in the market for a 2D platformer in the vein of games like Blasphemous, Castlevania, and Dark Souls, the upcoming Skelethrone might just be for you. With plenty of non-linear Metroidvania progression and a 2D combat system clearly inspired by the work of FromSoftware, the game’s free Steam demo is definitely worth a shot.

Personally, I’m excited to explore the non-linear Metroidvania progression in the game, uncovering hidden areas and finding new abilities as I go. I can’t wait to see how Skelethrone executes this gameplay aspect and how it stands out in the genre. Is there a specific feature of Skelethrone that you’re looking forward to trying out in the demo?
