My expectations aren't that high since it's free and all, and I'd rather them focus their resources on the main game first and foremost, but I can't help but to wonder what this little mysterious mini-game will be like. I think it would be neat if it was like a short 16 bit metroidvania similar to the GBA games or just an 8 bit procedurally generated castle that just went on forever.
Anyone else curious?

I think it will be a stripped down version of what we love, like a bacon-cheddar burger without any of the bacon, cheese, lettuce and tomatoes I would actually want. It might have its own charm, but when I want to play something retro I play my favorite old arcade games: Rygar, Black Tiger and Rastan Saga. I'm not into new games taking steps backwards. I also wish the time to develop the mini game was spent on the main game.

I'm hoping its just a solid Classic-vania experience. Metroidvanias are great too, but I love the pre-IGA games just as much and IGA has shown via Adventure Rebirth he knows how to make the old formula work quite well.
So I expect a solid little 8-bit game with 6 levels and 8-bit music made just for it by our composers as-per the stretch goals. Just Miriam, her sword/whip, jumping and maybe a few basic spells. God I hope she has a bitchin pimp-walk. Its tradition!

I have no idea, and would like for it to stay that way, until I hit 'Start'.  |

I'm hoping for a classic vania. It'd be more fun to play over and over than a short rpg IMO.

I am leaning towards the idea of a 16-bit classic Castlevania-styled action game (be it graphics, sounds and music), with still extremely fluid gameplay and nothing frustrating.
Maybe some added features would be nice, but I don't imagine much beyond that.

I'd like something in the vein of Castlevania: The Adventure Rebirth.
I worry going 8-bit will make it seem like a nostalgic "gimmick" game, like Mega Man ZX Advent's retro mode was.
I would like it to feel like a small prequel game, not a throwaway game.
