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!

    This is a bit different, but Mari0 has this control scheme. It’s Super Mario Bros with a portal gun. There’s also a lot of custom levels

      Oh, wow, saw a video, that looks crazy, not sure if it’s my thing but it certainly fits what I was asking for, thanks!
