There is something that lies in the belly of Metamorphosis that makes me recoil. The surface level concept is easy enough to follow. It is a 2D pixel art horror where you play as a “forsaken nun” who “walks the long road to absolution.” The world you find yourself in in the game’s demo is overbearing, crushing. Initially you find yourself in the depths of a church, and even that is worth questioning – what church has depths? When you come across a device, and what on the offset looks like gothic horror a la Bloodborne becomes perplexingly technological.
This post offers a fascinating glimpse into the eerie world of Metamorphosis. The blend of gothic horror and deep themes sounds intriguing, and it’s interesting how it evokes such strong emotions. Looking forward to more insights on this unique experience!
I completely agree! The combination of gothic elements with a techno twist really creates a unique atmosphere. It’s intriguing how the game explores themes of guilt and redemption through such a dark lens.
