Short Metroidvanias

What are some shorter metroidvanias you enjoyed?
Hollow Knight is nice and good, but sometimes you just want something shorter

Elephant Quest

Touhou: Luna Night

Cave Story is not a metroidvania (it's extremely linear unless you want some bonus weapon upgrades) but it's short and sweet.

I remember playing an indie metroidvania with really simply graphics and I think you played a slime or something. It was years ago and I don't remember the name, unfortunately

SMT Synchronicity
You'll need to find the english patch, but it's a fucking great game, and not too long
Amazing soundtrack too

Momodora 2

>SMT Synchronicity
>Initially, the game was labelled a hoax (嘘です, uso desu)? in the Japanese trailer for Shin Megami Tensei: Strange Journey Redux on October 13, 2017
>Three days later it was revealed to be a fully playable game ready for public access as part of the 25th anniversary of the Megami Tensei series and marketing campaign
Noice

Lyle in cube sector, the music is great too

MegaTen Synchronicity was fun.

Hero and Hero Core are relatively short.

Whoa that looks good.

Shantae: Risky's Revenge isn't a metroidvania
But it understands how to implement the movement and upgrade system to make a good Metroidvania. So you get a lot of the same kicks out of it, regardless of the fact its a dungeon platformer.

Wonder Boy Dragon's Trap/Dragon's Curse

I've never played or even known about the Momodora games for the longest time and have been interested in getting into them lately. Anything I should know? Like a particular order I should play them in or if I should skip some of the entries.

Especially dying to spikes simulator
With perfect parry anti spike tech

Super Metroid

Super Skelemania. Took me about an hour or so. Has an interesting take on mobility, worth checking out

oh shytt I almost forgot about these games, no idea what underground is like but the original game was really nice

Best choices in this thread because I'm assuming OP has played Cave Story if he likes the genre.

I've been thinking about playing this series. Is it full of lewd or is it just ecchi? Do I miss out substantially on playing the Switch version or should I just get it on PC?

Hydra Castle Labyrinth is a good one

Xeodrifter is THE mini metroidvania.
Can be completed even blind in about 2 hours, but it's super fun and the mechanics are so tight you will really wish it was bigger

I came to recommend Momodora 4, havent played the others

Came here to say this. It's a sleeper pick but I think it's cool.

Only ecchi (attributed only to the character designs) and implied yuri. Switch version should be the same as PC.

Strider is short, you can do a run in like 2-3 hours if you know where to go
