I loved Yars Revenge.

But why this, why now?

I didn't get to posting about it, but I saw last week the announcement about "Beyond the Ice Palace 2", which is the metroidvania sequel to a 1988 Amiga game. Bizarre that now is the time to cash in on the social capital these two games have built up over the years 🤷🏼
