This looks right up my alley. WIll definitely keep an eye on this. Although could they have come up with a more generic name for the title?
 
One of these days indie devs will realize that you can be a soulslike without having the word "soul" in your name. But today is not that day

On a serious note, game looks interesting, though I'm a bit worried how well you can design a Metroidvania around three separate characters. (assuming you only have one option per playthrough and there isn't a switching mechanic, that is). That being said, I'm a sucker for indie Metroidvanias so I'll be keeping a close eye on this one

Very cool! Fun fact, the team behind this were the developers of the fanmade game Card Sagas Wars.

The environments look beautiful! Character movement feels a bit sluggish to me, but it's difficult to really say without playing it yourself.
