True Steampunk
Maybe this metroidvania doesn't do anything special or new with the combat, platforming or combate mechanics, but what it does it does it extremely well. It doesn't even matter because the art is so fucking good that it would have been enough to make me fall in love.

It's really good to find a steampunk piece of media that actually uses steam technology in its world and not just the aesthetics.
