Episode 273 - Shadow Labyrinth Demo Impressions: Inspired By Metroid

One of the most intriguing Metroidvania’s in recent years has to be the announcement of Bandai Namco’s Shadow Labyrinth, not only because it looks cool, but because it’s a wildly different take on the standard Pac-Man genre. Yes, that Pac-Man, the one who eats pucks and runs away from ghosts! Reimagined as a gritty Metroidvania, this game sees you control an unnamed Swordsman, traversing a giant maze, and combining with Puck, a floating orb companion, to unleash powerful attacks! We were excited about the game when it was announced, and our friends at Bandai Namco must have noticed, because they have supplied us with a demo copy of the game that we had Doominal take for a test drive! We're talking about his experiences with the demo, which you can watch in full here, and what worked and didn't! We're also playing a fun game of Metroid A-Z, inspired by Nintendo's awful Nintendo Today app, so come hang out!   Visit OmegaMetroid.com!   Subscribe!
