i’ve been playing Redo!, a brazilian indie search action game with a normal human protagonist making slow deliberate movements & a pretty strong survival horror influence from the overall tone to an emphasis on moment to moment resource management. this gives it a lot more tension than a typical metroid and i’m finding myself scurrying back to a save point every time i find an item since i’m terrified of overextending myself. also the save room music is gorgeous ambient electronic as it should be.
“you’re the possible Last Living Human in a post apocalyptic hell world overrun by biomechanical horrors and someone gives you your first phone call in years, exploration ensues” is the entire plot so far but imo it’s better for it in just letting the atmosphere do the work
