Fun MSX tribute, think a straightforward La-Mulana with a very simplified lite Metroidvania progression. I'm hoping the dev's later Maze of Galious tribute (Pampas & Selene: The Maze of Demons) incorporates puzzles, more secrets, a larger and more complex map, and more of a sense of progression as you go. For $2, this mini-sized MSX game is pretty fun though!

Mini Ghost is the prequel to the Ghost 1.0 video game, but made with retro graphics from the 80s-90s. Fun, short and cheap. I have played it perfectly on the Steamdeck

Classic metroidvania goodness, the gameplay is very simple, but very fun as well. Because of my dumbness i may have complicated the game for myself a little bit ( i always destroy those healing robot, didn't realize they can heal you until very late in the game), A good and short game for anyone looking for some MSX or NES gameplay.
