So, I send you my answers and feel obliged to write more about it here.

I like your projects and would buy it personally and I think it got quite the potential (I would recommend make an itch.io page to grab some fans over there too as you can sell the game on the site). The problem is, there isn't too many people following it right now. You're really need to do the most to highlight it. Your pixels are usually top notch and can help you. RMN can appreciate this, so can artists and players on other sites.
A combination of Zelda and Metroid can be a golden mine, if you sell it correctly and without mentioning the combo too much. There will be others to notice it and point it out eventually (a short trailer with an ambient tune and zeldish boss fight, burning, whatever, can do the trick) I responded, that I would pay 5 bucks. That is the truth right now. However I would be willing to pay more, if the game was able to sell itself better. Like I prefer this screen over the one chosen for the form. That one is too grim. The yellow here is so pleasant.


Gameplay wise, the game should be well-tested and enjoyable rather than frustrating. My personal preference would be to focus it less on fighting and all the rpg stuff and more on exploring and environmental storytelling. Like the story in the original Metroid is so brilliant, because it's mostly atmosphere.
