Hey there! It's not meant to be misleading. It's an issue with how the sale is portrayed by the itch system. I want to give people 50% off the game, BUT since the game is bought in "layers", itch only show the first layer of sale. It's kind of weird. I'm thinking of a solution in the future. Sorry for any issues it caused you.
I aboslutely loved playing this game, good challenge, I had to slow down the emulator to fight the bosses, unfortunately I didn't put my anxiety to peak level when going through boss battles. I know there were patterns to fight them, but again, UH UH. Thank you for the game, hopefully you make a sequel or prequel to the game. Thanks again!
We're working on the next NES game in parallel to our PC game (Feoderatus). It's not going to be a prequel or sequel to Steel Legion, but it's very much in the same "type": a tight metroidvania with a high but fair difficulty in combat. Next one will have some RPG elements! We'll keep it secret a bit for now since it's second priority, but I'm sure you'll like it.
