How short is it gonna be?

[VALÆRA]

For Metroidvania to be short sounds kinda sus.

I beat Super Metroid 100% in 52 minutes. As long as it is enjoyable this can have a market.

In game time clock of 52.

[Neku before he gets slimed]

Most Metroidvanias are short? Like the average length of most of them is around 8-12 hours lol

[VALÆRA]

That's exactly what I've been asking for. Your personal achievements not related to this game and abstract thoughts on the genre of metroidvania. Thank you both guys!

[scumhead]

Lol, first playthrough will clock around 4 hours

[VALÆRA]

Thank you so much, scumhead. Have a nice day!

theres tricks u can do toget extra hours out of short games such as:
try playing the game a differen't way such as:
1 eye closed
hands upside down
holdering you're breath
whole body upside down
chilly-hands-mode (use icepak against your hands until they're numb)
smoking cigareets
empty stomach/full somtach
change setting on you're monitor for black and white gaming or
turn lights off and light candle + put on smooth jazz
1 eye closed
speak your gameplay (it means you tell your movements out loud before you make them sounds confusing but trust me it works)
no-getting-hit style
naked game

u can probably think of more on you're own. and u can play through a four hours game with so many different modes the howlongtobeat actually can become 40 hours.... 400 hours..... or even 400000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000 hours theres no limit to the human imagination (thanks to God)
