Me: You should probably play a game before making one. This subhuman: "OH SO YOU WANT PEOPLE TO GET MURDERED?? IS THAT WHAT YOU'RE SAYING?!" Literally fuck all the way off.

I don't think this is ripping off spore spawn, but not having played the game that defined the genre of your game, then trying to take a pot shot at the boss design of the same masterpiece of a game to try to make yours seem better? These are... definitely choices.
I'm sorry to break it to you but I had never seen this Metroid boss until 30 minutes ago. We're not ripping anything off, this is just one of dozens of bosses that has a weakspot located between 2 pieces of armour. There isn't much to "rip off" from Spore's design anyways.

Another reason we need to use a different term than "Metroidvania" 🤢🤮 Metroid and Castlevania had next to nothing in common until SotN, a whole decade after the original Metroid.
Replying to @SurlyGamer
Castlevania took what Metroid produced and abandoned its Classicvania identity. SotN is Metroid + RPG mechanics While I can see certain mechanics from games like Prince of Persia: The Lost Crown and Hollow Knight, Castlevania: Belmont's Curse doesn't feel like either game. You

Jordan always has the latest info and his videos are genuinely enjoyable to sit through without cringe bullshit. Love that he keeps supporting physical media too. One of my favorite channels.
There's lots and lots of awesome looking Switch & Switch 2 physicals you may want to import over the coming months. Have a watch and see if any take your fancy: youtube.com/watch?v=aGkyejkL…
