Critic Reviews
A Trippy Retro Metroidvania
With plenty of characters to choose from, a good variety of biomes, and different combat platform mechanics, B.I.O.T.A. gives a great modern remake to retro gaming. Though the game isn't really built for long sessions due to some palettes giving away a bit of a headache the longer you play, its immersion is just enough for you to enjoy the game.
