This right here is a cute roguelike with a nice simplistic style and solid game-play.
Okay its kinda hard. Scratch that I'm just really bad at games.
Thats the only explanation. Its a good thing I have my rule about roguelikes counting as endless games considering I don't think I could e
ver reach an end in this. Its like the binding of issac-I've put 60 hrs into that game but only beat satan once/Still haven't beat issac/haven't even seen mega satan. So anyways I've played it till I reached the difficulty spike/achievement wall and after trying to pass it grew tired and stopped. Its still a good game/I had fun with the part I had but also not revolutionary.

Alright Hyper light drifter...(Reason this text is so colorful and bright is it accurately represents how the game is...sorry if its harder to read :P)
Ho boy okay where do I even start.


This game...

This game is absolutely amazing omg.
Its aesthetics, its smooth game play- I'm in love :3
I was actually looking at it for almost a year before it was in the HB and I nearly bought it from steam on a good 10 different occasions.
(its kinda the same as how I'm treating Hollow Knight right now).
Then I got it and it was immediately shoved into my backlog.

Dammit.
...
Dammit.
...

Enter my ABC plan and a way to bring myself to play something I really want to play. Idk I know its weird. Why am I like this...
Anyways after the initial push I ended up thoroughly enjoying myself and think everyone else would like it as well.
(My attempt at mimicking the aesthetic of the game has failed miserably...But most people have probably seen some of the pictures/art for it
so take this I made as a indicator of how nice (I think) it is.)


Also I have to say The game-play is really fun and reasonably difficult-but and this is the important part- not rage inducing.
That's right the game play is difficult enough that you feel challenged but not too hard that you give up!
Additionally the game has secrets everywhere and I managed to find them all!

Did I mention I love this. :3

I completely agree with you with GoNNER. I was challenged to play it last month and started it, was really enjoying it. But quickly realised that the odds of me completing the game anytime soon was low, having to fully restart every time ahhh. I love games like this but am also terrible at them. Doesn’t seem to have as much replayability as BoI either. I was also talking to a friend about the game and he mentioned to me that he was surprised I was playing it, as one of the future levels is seizure-inducing which is a real bummer. :/

p.s. I like how your post fit the moods of the games!

Blue Ϟ Lightning

Yeah I’ve lead myself to belive I love roguelikes but don’t spend as much time on them as other things so idk. (completly agree with you about it not having much replay ability)
and I’m also not the best at skill based games.

Thank you! I try, I’m actually the most proud of the top left gif cause I managed to embed it in the background with no repeat then basically modeled the whole post around that :3

JaffaCaffa

You should be, so well done and the gif really is adorable. It’s always so cool seeing people make their posts look fancy schmancy! Oh and I forgot to say, “perfectly describes my schoolife” made me laugh out loud so thanks for that haha. :D

ninglor03

But… I can’t say a thing about the game you mention. I’ve seen them on sg, but that’s about it…. :]
Anyway! Nice ABC work! happy

In that sense: Have a great week, don’t let school pull you down!
Happy abc killing :)

ninglor03

Cute is always good - what exactly though? Me? Should have seen that one coming ;) :D

My girlfriend LOVES Hyper Light Drifter, though it’s not the kind of game for me. I’m mostly commenting, though, because I think your post is formatted in a really lovely, appealing way.

Blue Ϟ Lightning

aaaaaa okay I already wrote a reply but it got eaten and I’m kinda drunk rn and its late but-

thanks- I like comments it makes me want to spend 3 hours formatting a postu…don’t get me wrong most of that is wrting the post cause Idk writing is hard and I’m happy about it cause I’m learning new things-background gif no repeat in top left for example I’m kinda being greedy for comments and at this point its just hopeing people read it lol.

As for my post. Its kinda gaudy and idk looks like a flash game website from the 90s or something. Its eh, But I’m also proud of it cause I tried to make it match the games and also the bright colors make it stand out againsed all the other white posts

tsupertsundere

I think that game website from the 90’s is exactly why it’s appealing to me. Don’t feel bad about feeling greedy for comments - if you do stuff to show people, if you put effort into it, of course you want people to give you feedback. It feels especially nice if it’s positive feedback.

You should feel proud because your effort had the intended effect - it absolutely matches the games and does stand out!

Nice looking update, been wanting to play Hyper light drifter but I’m wanting a REALLY good discount on it.

Blue Ϟ Lightning

I got it cause it was in the HB- I’m that good with trading myself but you might be able to trade someone for it. ¯_(ツ)_/¯
