I have started my journey into Space Child as Tyler, kicking balls and debating mushroom names.

Hey, good video about a guy sounding drunk. Here's the last bit of it as well. 

this game is very reminiscent of Metroid II, which was one of my favorites for the old game boy system

i've just beat this game and the included map was handy enough for me to find my way around. unlike metroid II, the tiles in each area were different enough to distinguish on their own.

the game does have some quirks, most notably a lower framerate than usual and no knockback from enemies. this doesn't take away from gameplay much, but it does end up being a little less challenging than i'd prefer when everything runs in slow motion and you can tank damage during boss fights with no consequence if you fire fast enough

overall it was pretty enjoyable, with pleasant graphics and a good flow in backtracking with the level design

Thanks for the comment! Space Child is the first game I have completed. I'm now working on a spiritual successor of sorts titled Nakawak. Here's a boss battle (work in progress):
