Raider Kid and the Ruby Chest

Годная метроха на вечерок. Без проблем выбил все ачивки и прошёл игру на 100%.

Интересная маленькая метроидвания. Можно пройти за вечер на 100%. Без всяких заморочек с платформингом. Нет ачивок за прохождение на время или низким процентом, что для меня плюс, еще одна простая идеальная игра в копилку.

If you're looking for a short, little metroidvania for a few hours, Raider Kid and the Ruby Chest proves a good, tight experience. The story and lore aren't anything to really write home about - just a kid on an adventure through some ancient ruins - but the combat and exploration were fun enough. If you want a quick metroidvania experience, Raider Kid and the Ruby Chest is a good choice.

A solid, bite-sized metroidvania that plays like a particularly good late gameboy color game. I beat the game 100% in about 3 hours on default settings, and they were a charming and fun 3 hours. If you want a decent challenge, I recommend looking at the difficulty options when you start the game.

This game definitely gives the nostalgia feeling. I enjoyed the game and had fun with it. The balance of difficulty level was very well done. The music is great and the bosses and level designs were well done. I placed it on my ‘A’ level on my tier list that goes S, A, B, C, D, E. It took me shy of 3 hours to beat.

What a great game! It has pretty much everything you'd expect from a Metroidvania in a nice, small package. The platforming works, the secrets are fun to find, and the unique gimmicks sprinkled in are a blast to play with. One especially nice touch: as you unlock new things in the game, new enemies activate or old enemies get upgrades. A bit like how Super Metroid changes enemies up after certain major bosses, really. I wish more Metroidvanias did that; for one thing, it lets you explore an area more freely before you have the item you're supposed to find there. For another, it'd help keep things fresh. Raider Kid and the Ruby Chest did it and it's not even long enough to NEED it, which just goes to show the attention to detail that went in to this. Highly recommended!

Pretty sweet little microvania. Definitely worth a pick up

This is a mini-Metroidvania, about 2-4 hours in length, with some good exploration with lots of secrets and some challenging bosses. It's reminiscent of the early GBC era in its visual style, even with a border around the game looking like a GB screen. I disabled that since I preferred to have the game window larger. There are some sticker packs you can find in game to customize your border if you so wish. Exploration is good, there's a lot of abilities, no new ground but ones that you'd expect with a game of this style. There's no double jump, which is unusual in Metroidvanias. The pendulum is probably the most unique item in the game, it lets you find rooms that might have treasure by moving the pendulum (as if it were a cursor) across the map. You may need to use the pendulum to find the three secret gears you need to reach the end. There were only a few obscure routes, but observation of the terrain and map layout will help you find those. Lots and lots of secrets, some of which are used to unlock the true ending. There are two endings, with the true ending having an additional boss and has a whole area that's not used in the normal area to unlock it. There's also a secret room that teaches you an advanced movement technique that definitely changes how you approach the game. Bosses can be tough, one mechanic of the final boss (normal) and second to last boss (true) had bouncing off walls and floor projectiles that sometimes made it tough to avoid while dealing damage and dealing with everything else the boss throws at you. You have no way to heal yourself so you'll need to learn those patterns. Techwise it ran perfectly on Linux, and would be a good SteamDeck game due to the low system usage and perfect compatibility. Overall, if you like Metroidvanias, it is worth a pickup. The short playtime makes it a good pick up and play game when you want something simpler and quicker than a 40 hour monster.
