Hi everyone! Yesterday I was checking the demo of Acrolyte, a pixel art metroidvania. The think I liked the most was the controls scheme, it was like the old game Abuse, keyboard for movement and mouse for aiming. So my question is, do you know any other modern (or not as modern) games that are similar? As in side scroller where you aim with the mouse. Doesn’t matter if it is 2D, 2.5D or pixel art.
Cheers!


Noita and good old Soldat come to mind
Was gonna say Noita, great game but unforgiving as fuck!
Oh, i didn’t realize Noita had mouse aiming and it has been in my wishlist forever. Also love the tiny characters of Soldat. Many thanks!
