    Other than that one truly sour note, Sydney Hunter and the Curse of the Mayan absolutely nails the experience it wants to the player to have, and there’s an underlying philosophy here that’s not seen in modern game design any more. Specifically, in the old days it frequently felt like designers were trying to ‘beat’ the player by creating experiences which could technically be bested, yet frequently crushed anyone arrogant enough to load the game up.

    It’s got an unhelpful streak, and the graphical scrappiness stops it short from being the next Hollow Knight or Ori. But you know what? That’s a ridiculously high bar to set, and Sydney Hunter and the Curse of the Mayan confidently walks underneath it with its head held high. As a retro-leaning, budget Metroidvania, you can’t do much better than this.

    A solid little platformer made in the image of games almost as old as the Mayan Ruins themselves, but with modernised controls that make it feel refined.
