    To me, Hyper Light Drifter is an all-time legendary game. Gameplay is perfect. The atmosphere is perfect. The soundtrack is absolutely perfect. The game is just perfect.

    My gut reaction to this is not good. I don’t see how a 3D game could ever achieve the same level of greatness and immersion that HLD did. They set a ridiculously high bar with HLD and I’m sad tobsee that the next iteration from Heart Machine won’t expand on the foundations they laid. I can’t help but feel disappointed after seeing this but regardless I’m absolutely willing to see what they pull off with this. Fingers crossed.

      Well, this isn’t their first 3D game. Solar Ash came out a while ago and while it wasn’t as good as HLD I felt like it was a pretty good game overall.

    I’m a geezer casual gamer and gave up on the first one because it got too hard for me to keep it fun. I also felt like the lack of instructions did not equate to fun puzzles to solve.

    Regardless, I enjoyed the visual art and play styles, and will probably give this one a go as well.
