Environmental Station Alpha is an action adventure platformer with a retro aesthetic and heavy emphasis on exploration. In the game the player controls a robot sent to investigate a mysterious, abandoned space station with the mission to find out what exactly took place there.
extremely underrated metroidvania with a super solid core game and stellar postgame secrets so deep it basically constitutes a whole other game
It's a great metroidvania.
The gameplay itself is nothing revolutionary but it's a pretty good classical metroidvania, the game is reasonably difficult, the controls, movement, map and boss design overal feels pretty retro, which has its ups and downs.
The best part of the game are the secrets, for those who are interested in things such as secret languages to translate, messages...
Absolutely fantastic game. The main game is great, the post game is challenging but still fun, and the post post game is a bit tedious but its still really fascinating.
