CARRION

My kind of game: exploration and violence.

Ever want a quick little romp around of being themonster. Well this is the game for you.

The game itself is really fun, and the procedural animation feels amazing and fluid. Playing as the monster in a horror movie is such a great idea for a metroidvania! With that said, there are two main issues I have with the game. First is the insta-kill enemies and traps, which just feel very frustrating and out of place. Second is the lack of map, which is fine for most of the game it's pretty straightforward, but towards the end I had no idea where I was, or were I was suposed to be going. Still a great game though, and if the devs were to patch those two things it would be an instant 5/5

Carrion plays a reverse horror game where you are the monster. It's build with good mechanics over a retro aesthetic, greadually getting bigger and more capable. I really like how the things is not an impervious juggernaut but is still very vulnerable to harm. At it's core it's a puzzle game which gives a satisfaction whenever the next puzzle is solved. I'm not a fan of the point-and-click combined with the few button combos, and the sluggish response of the creature even it's by design, but overall it's a good well thought out game where evey mechanic seems (so far) to be intentional. Now excuse me, I'm going back to play it some more.

had a great time eating everything
