    Action, Adventure, and Action-Adventure are all different genres. I think people will figure it out.

      Those aren’t words that can easily be confused for each other due to accents or minor variance in pronunciation.

      And besides, we already have a genre name for Vampire Survivor-alikes. They’re bullet heavens.

        No we don’t, never heard anyone use that term when referring to games that are similar to Vampire Survivors. It’s always survivor-like game. Also, bullet heaven is not even an accurate description of the game, as in lots of these games you don’t throw lots of projectiles around. If you’re going to force a name change, Mob Hell is a way better descriptor.
