I’m a big fan of these kinda games where you explore an area collect items/level up to fight bosses.
My favorite is Order of Ecclesia for the DS. It was just great gameplay, a decent story, and great art.
I’m kinda unfamiliar with the new games in the genre, so I’d appreciate any suggestions. And is there a community of people who design those games?

The lab coat, right? The disruptor and passcode both scratched that itch for me a little bit, but it’s hard to forget you have them or miss when you need them. The lab coat is so brilliantly simple that I constantly forgot its obstacle wasn’t an obstacle for me anymore. Just when I was really getting used to having it I also got baited hard by that one one-way entrance, you know which one.
