This is a Korean indie game that came out about a month ago that is getting good reviews and has good word of mouth, that's out on PS4/5, Switch, PC & iOS. So here's a thread for it.

I haven't picked it up yet (but will), apparently the game is Mega Man-esque with some hack and slash + beat em up elements.

METALLIC CHILD is a rogue-lite, core-action game, featuring Rona, an android known as “Metallic Child,” taking place in a space laboratory in the latter part of the 20th century.

A large-scale rebellion has taken place in the space laboratory Life Stream.
All robots aboard, with the exception of Rona and Pan, are conspiring to crash Life Stream into planet Earth.
Rona has stood up to stop this plot, and you will be the one to guide Rona by remotely operating her through this "game."
