I loved my experience with Yars, but I do agree with the other reviews that it felt a bit short for the cost. I've been playing the music from the game for weeks since my playthrough. 9/10 game, 10/10 soundtrack

This is Cyber Shantae. The other reviews aren't mentioning this enough, but this is basically just Shantae with a cyber theming. If you liked Shantae, you will probably like this game. If you liked this game, you will probably like Shantae. Calling it a "metroidvania" also works, but metroidvania describes a huge variety of different types, styles, genres, etc.

Short game, easily done in less than 10 hours. Music is grating for most of the game and the dialogue is so... cringe Gen Z humor. VA for the main char is not a good fit either. Her voice and lines gets irritating pretty quick and even the side characters are pretty annoying. "fr fr no cap" And she NEVER stfu!

Not the best Metroidvania, but the hacking minigame nostalgia was fun enough to give it a pass.
