Maptroid is a freeware Metroidvania by lozzajp written in HTML5 and released in 2020. As the name suggests, it strips away all the platforming and combat that the genre is known for to boil it down to its essence: traveling a map and collecting items. And we do mean literally traveling a map: your only sense of what the game world may actually look like is limited to the corner of your screen, as you explore using only the level map as your guide.The original game can be played on various sites, but was originally uploaded onto Kongregate. A more expansive version of the game, featuring more planets, has been released for Steam called Maptroid: Worlds on December 12th 2022.

Multiple Endings: Two of them. Depending on your clear time, you either miss dinner or are on time.

Pun-Based Title: The title's a pun on the word "map" and the Metroid series.

Ability Required to Proceed: There are obstacles and tiles of various types (such as corridors that are too dark to safely venture through) that you are unable to traverse until you find certain equipment.

Excuse Plot: You run out of fuel and have to land on an alien planet. Now you must collect enough fuel to get back home. Not much more to it, outside of a couple notes from other visitors.

Wingdinglish: The document in the mountain is written in wingdings, which kind of fits the alien planet atmosphere, especially as it's also the only one with non-white text. It reads "Did you really bother to translate this?".

Shout-Out: One of the very first items you can find is an ancient text poking fun at the Morph Ball item from the Metroid series. The second document you find has "Help I've fallen and I can't get up!" written on it.
