It can't be both? It more or less is still an RPG, there's just more action/adventure than VP since the screen doesn't transition and there are progression abilities rather than the static things Lenneth/Alicia always have. You can climb walls in VP1 too, just not so much like that. It's actually almost odd that they didn't have you do a more lengthy straight wall climb with the crystal shot, which would have been possible...maybe kinda tough though. I do remember something like that in one of the levels...the hard mode fire dungeon, I believe? There was some trickier movement stuff there...
Anyway yeah, it's a Metroidvania game but also an RPG, in less the sense of Igavania being an RPG and more a "battle system".

Even then, there's a free prototype you can play so you can judge for yourself. I'd say in Mega Man Zero you are a lot "lighter" in that you can do perpetual wall jumps super fast. You can't really do that here so far. Also while it's possible to kill enemies upon hitting them, you have to be strong enough to do that. Otherwise you'll be put in the battle screen. At this stage, I don't see how you can KO bosses and avoid the battle system outright to make it look like a Mega Man game either.
Still hoping for that maniac dungeon/new game plus. Then again, Lab Zero has weird ways of finding money here and there so they might just end up adding it later on anyway. It's very rare for them to underestimate a budget so that they find themselves in debt, but even then they still deliver on their promises somehow.

New Update: Naga Rider Gameplay Overview and Backer Preview out soon! If all goes according to plan, the Backer Preview should be submitted today and out in about 7-10 days afterwards *crosses fingers* To that end, if you pre-ordred the game on BackerKit or were a backer on IndieGoGo that initially pledged less than $30 and later upgraded to a $30-or-over tier then you will be charged on 10/20. BackerKit preorders will continue as planned until 12/31; new orders after 10/20 will be charged every few days. Be sure to complete your BackerKit survey so that you can claim your Backer Preview code when it drops

I think that when this goes out, press/attention for the game will blow up and it'll get more of the buzz it deserves.

New Update: Kampan Redesign and Gameplay Overview and ETA for Backer Preview She got a bit of a redesign but Kampan is still the same gifted, pugilistic mechanic and thief who uses her custom Buster Arm to rob the Iron Kingdom’s nobility! The Backer Preview build has been approved by Sony in both the US and EU, and has been submitted to Microsoft. If all goes well and passes MS certification, the preview should launch next week *crosses fingers* Be sure to fill out your BackerKit surveys if you haven't already so you can claim your Backer Preview code when the time comes

Hate to be a negative nancy but all the redesigns have been not exactly in my taste, the original designs looked way better.

Nah I agree Saint Germain. In Kampan's case, it's just much less detailed, making it easier to draw/animate over and over lol. rip Same for the other two, and with the vaquero they changed his race as well. The models are all much simpler. heh

I played the preview while my friend was here from out of town. This guy does not play Casltevania, Metroid, or any gameplay-centric games like this. He mostly plays shooters or games that focus on story or the atmosphere. The Metro games, the S.T.A.L.K.E.R(s), the Mass Effects(not 3), and stuff like that. I played this backer preview in front of him and even HE was impressed with it. It's not his sort of game still, but it managed to impress someone like that.
This backer preview was an absolute treat. I played it before I read the explanations and possible FAQ's. My first playthrough was 91% after an hour and some change. I couldn't find Tungar, but I found myself using Dhar, Zebei, and Ginsing/Honey. Qadira is ok, she doesn't play at all like I expected. She's a lot more offensive than I was thinking currently. I found best girl Razimi, but I haven't used her yet. Zebei is awesome like usual, Dhar is kind of there for me(useful, but not that memorable), and Ginsing/Honey is cute and is a good addition. I found the bow absolutely hilarious to use due to how I can cheese some enemies with it. I was disappointed that the bow didn't have any exploration uses that I could find yet.
The music is absolutely beautiful. I'm hoping that Lab Zero posts that final boss track on their channel, it's that good. Seriously, go check this demo out if you backed the game. It's worth a playthrough.

New Update: Zahra Redesign and Gameplay Overview ![]()  Hailing from a faraway land, Zahra seeks to soothe this troubled world with her music! REMINDER: You have until the end of the year to back the game via Backerkit ( see here). There are rewards (physical stuff) that can only be gotten via backing the game and won't be available via retail so if you're as hype for this game as I am and have some spare cash right now, consider backing.We are about $125k from the last stretch goal. A tall order with not much time left but maybe spread the word a bit and we might have a chance

This game has certainly proven worth the wait. If you haven't backed now, and you still want to, we have until December 31st (as crocodile already stated above me) before BackerKit funding closes!

We don't know yet. Anybody got a Christmas miracle in their pocket they want to throw this game's way? Maniac dungeon and new game plus, I mean. It sounds amazing.

Thanks a lot for the updates Croc, Invidisible will end being a superb game! They totally worked on the VP battle system making it so dynamic, it's crazy.
I just hope I'll be adaptable enough to all of these changes and that HP will be easily recoverable enough.
For me, this game is the one I don't seek info on, but I am so glad it's developing nicely! I am so glad I slacker-backed it, even if 'stained remains my priority!
Keep up the good job, tc, hf!
