Ability-Gated Exploration Platformer

An ability-gated exploration platformer (AGEP) is a genre term for a video game that is heavily based around exploration and non-linearity, with certain areas generally inaccessible without upgrades or new unlockable abilities.

The game space is often open-world or semi-open, and involves encountering obstacles that the player cannot usually overcome without later backtracking. This is the generic term for the genre more popularly known as "Metroidvania" or "Zeldavania."
I'm working on a new game. It's an ability-gated exploration platformer inspired by Dead Cells and Guacamelee!

PanDora the Explorer

Little Miss Márquez's ancient ancestor who took "exploring" to an excessive degree; thanks to her excessive inquisitiveness in wanting to know what was in The Forbidden Box, we all now have to suffer with negative/destructive tendencies in each other, such as greed, lust, jealousy, and so on.
Too bad that Epimetheus didn't install a padlock on the box of evil demons, since this might have prevented PanDora the Explorer from opening it and thus releasing all the horrible denizens contained within.
