The Action-RPG Morbid: The Seven Acolytes is now available:

Morbid: The Seven Acolytes

You are the last surviving Striver of Dibrom. Your duty, for which you have trained your whole life, is to defeat the Seven Acolytes, accursed and powerful beings, possessed by malevolent deities called Gahars.

Experience epic bosses and a multitude of bloodthirsty encounters as you build your character.
Challenging foes, mini-bosses, and memorable large-scale boss fights with fully orchestrated music, are central to the world of Morbid. To overcome these obstacles you must master the combat, as well as improve your character and gear through a wealth of elements such as Quests, Perks, Runes, Upgrades, and Looting.



Explore the diverse fantasy world of Mornia abundant with deep and immersive lore.
The Gahars have bound their twisted minds to the flesh of the Seven Acolytes, for without hosts they cannot survive. You must slay the Acolytes, thus ridding the Gahars of their flesh. Succeed, and you'll free the kingdom from the heavy yoke of their terror. Fail, and the malicious gods rule on, as the Acolytes rise anew, and madness prevails.

Game looks good but no mouse in the menus or inventory, real game breaker for me
 
This was supposed be another 2D Souls clone right? I might give it a try.

With the name "Morbid", I really had expected an extreme metal soundtrack.

a pibbur who assumes that behind any disgusting/nasty/yechy word there is an extreme metal band.

Game looks damn great. I missed hand-drawn and pixel-art games from 90s so much when whole game industry jumped on 3D bandwagon. Very glad indie scene revived it for us. Cant imagine why people keep complaining about it. There is more then enough games in different styles for everybody to choose from these days.

Anyway, will wait for review on Switch to hear about performance there and then will choose on which platform to spend the money.

I don't miss it at all, probably because I was playing all those titles (EOB for once) and I saw the 16M graphics as progress, which was 2D before 3D was such a fuss everyone and their cousin had to use it.

More probably its matter of taste. Started playing long before pixelated games of 90s myself and I still appreciate them today.
