About A.R.E.S.: Extinction Agenda
A.R.E.S.: Extinction Agenda is the first chapter in a full featured episodic hardcore action packed side scrolling platformer, in the traditions of retro classics, where you play as Ares, a combat robot created for the sole purpose of saving humanity. Can you live up to the task or will you be reduced to nuts and bolts?
You are Ares, the first Zytron immune robot. A symbol of how far human technology has come, you are the most advanced robot in existence; built to run faster, jump higher, and fire quicker. In addition to these core attributes, your design includes a system for converting spare parts and resources into valuable items, armor, and weaponry. You will need to use everything at your disposal in order to reach and rescue the survivors aboard the Zytron infected space station.

I beat this game probably like 13 years ago but overall I enjoyed it. Feels like a Megaman game and is fairly simple. Took me like 3 hours to beat so not super long.
Its just metroid
Awesome! old fashioned shooter platformer.
This game seems to be an homage to MegaMan and other bot-related side-scrollers. Unfortunately, the combat mechanics are not quite up to that standard of fairness and difficulty. MULTIPLE times in my short play with this game I found that I would be pushed into enemies during room transitions, and even a few enemies could effectively mob me out by repeatedly triggering a stun animation, even in the early game. There is a collection mechanic to upgrade your abilities, but this was too grindy. Would not recommend for any amount of money you might pay for it.
Not quite Mega Man, but somewhere in its DNA I think there's a bit of it.
The controls are jank. it's hard to aim at stuff.
