Xeodrifter is a retro-styled metroidvania. It's very short and can be completed in a few hours. The game is quite short and pretty easy, and that's coming from someone who sucks at platforming, metroidvanias, and retro games in general. There are collectable trophies but I got them all with ease following this video walkthrough. There is also a trophy for beating the game in less than an hour, but there is a cheese method that is easy to execute and completely removes this time limit.
You fight the same boss over and over but with a different colour palate and one new attack each time. The bosses actually get easier each time in my opinion because you will have more health and a more upgraded weapon each time. The only hard trophy in the game tasks you with beating the last boss without getting hit, and it took me quite a few attempts, but thankfully you can retry pretty much instantly, especially if you go into the fight with only one health point remaining. I'll post my successful run below.
Overall, I found the game to be decent. I probably would have gotten bored with it if it wasn't so short, but I'm not a big fan of metroidvanias in general, so take what I say with a grain of salt.
