Crypt Custodian: The Little Game With A Lot Of Heart

Midlife Maestro reviews Crypt Custodian, an adorable metroidvania with an unusual top-down view. You play as Pluto, a recently deceased cat who's sentenced to clean up garbage in the afterlife for all eternity. If you've ever loved a pet, or better yet, if you don't get why people love their pets so much, give this game a chance. I don't think you'll regret it.

From the Steam store page:

"Crypt Custodian is a charming metroidvania about cleaning up the afterlife. Play as Pluto - a mischievous cat who has died, and is sentenced to be the afterworld's janitor... FOREVER! Hang out with other doomed ghosts, battle beasts, and explore a vastly expansive landscape."
