Is Salt and Sanctuary not a popular game? It's one of the better and well reviewed 2D souls-likes. Salt and Sacrifice did get dunked on for being Epic exclusive and worse than Salt and Sanctuary though.

I love Metroidvanias

Give Ender Lilies a try if you didn't play it yet by the way. Really good Metroidvania and one of my favorites (besides the obvious ones like Hollow Knight and Ori).

It's the impression I get, I rarely hear it discussed or people just haven't heard of it when Hollow Knight comes up.

I actually gave Ender Lilies a shot. I have to admit it didn't grab me for some reason. I don't remember what problem I had with it exactly. BUT it does have a phenomenal soundtrack (Awakening, North).

Have you played Aquaria? I should've mentioned this one instead (slipped my mind) because it feels even more obscure than Salt and Sanctuary.

Have you played Aquaria?

Nope, but I do have it in my Steam library for some reason so I'm gonna check it out soon.
