I have no idea how I could have missed out on Heart Machine´s Kickstarter campaign for their 2D action/RPG game “Hyper Light drifter“.

But at least I found out about the game today. So I just thought that I should share my thoughts about Hyper Light drifter with you guys.

hyper light drifter

Hyper Light drifter are set for an early release this next year (PC, MAC, PS4, Xbox One, PSV, OUYA, Wii-U).

First of all I should mention that Hyper Light drifter was successfully funded on the 12th of October last year (the original goal was to raise 27,000 dollars. But the total sum added up to 645,000 dollars!).

So Hyper Light drifter couldn’t have had a much better start really.

And from what I have seen so far from the game. Hyper Light drifter seems to be a mix of both Zelda, Cyberpunk and Another World (to name a few).

So there Is no doubt in my mind (whatsoever) that Hyper Light drifter will become a huge hit on release. And i´ll try to get my hands on the game asap! (which would be sometime during the very start of 2015).

About Hyper Light drifter:
Explore a beautiful, vast and ruined world riddled with unknown dangers and lost technologies. Inspired by nightmares and dreams alike. Hyper Light Drifter is a 2D Action RPG in the vein of the best 8-bit and 16-bit classics, with modernized mechanics and designs on a much grander scale
