Hyper Light Drifter Thread

[Pandas Galore]

So a game I've recently come across due to friends who've backed the game has really caught my eye. I know people are getting tired of the pixel art aesthetic but at the same time I feel like this art style is unique enough and uses the lack of limitations on graphics compared to the NES and colors really well to supplement any kind of hate the game might get for being "pixel indie trash".

The game looks tight controlling and very lonely feeling, so I really am looking forward to this and kinda wish I'd backed it.

It's finally got a release date, March 31.

I have backed it, and I'm pretty glad I did. It seems to be shaping up great.

Yeah, I've had my eye on this for a while. It's had some positive early impressions and I like the aesthetic, plus the soundtrack's by Disasterpeace.

They keys still aren't out doesn't look like it's out on Steam yet either. Not sure what's behind the delay

Playing it right now, this thing is gorgeous but I can't stop comparing the giant things with evangelions

I'm the kind of guy who would usually get pissed about fads like pixel art, but I think indie games can be forgiven for one very salient reason: pixel art is cheap and a lot of indie devs don't have a giant bank to work with.

As for this title, I'm very interested, but I've been advised (by a couple people who know my specific tastes) that it's . short and I should wait til its like $10. Also, I have like the dozen steam titles I bought but haven't played yet already.

I'm trying to beat New Game plus on this game and it's impossible.

Couldn't recommend this game more though.
