Thanks for making me flashback to the clock tower levels in the Castlevania series. Ugh, those bastards. Between the bats and the Gorgon heads floating up and down...I'm surprised the NES lived.

Played this on my buddy's Colecovision on the regular.
I had this one. Hilariously bad. That tune was hammered into my skull.

When people think Uncharted and Tomb Raider are similar games. They're completely different genres with a similar coat of paint.

I generally hate games that employ some kind of double jump or super jump.

What if it is done in a Metroidvania game? I love it then.
