Tommy Tallarico jumpscare. An honestly terrific 2.5D powerhouse with tons of splatty sci-fi violence and nostalgic charm - which happens to have the same issue as a lot of other games from this era: you can fully complete it in like a handful of hours. Still, kind of refreshing to see a game like this just ditch any sort of story outright in favor of throwing lots of edgy style at the wall - and while the combat mechanics are satisfying and creative, they can also be finnicky and definitely get repetitive (taking four complete side-to-side hits to kill most enemies feels fun at first but is eventually sort of tiring). Tight, well paced, varied, and cool. Underrated.
