Ever-present, always watching, inevitable.

Atmospheric is an understatement. This game thrives off of its art style and perfectly compatible score against a plain hard combat system. Eerie synths constantly underlay a pixelated, decaying overworld. Massive mechanical humanoid beings cling lifelessly to the mountainous terrain, shown off as breathtaking views for the Drifter to sit and watch from a cliffside. The bosses in Hyper Light are just unnerving, especially toward the end of the game when you realize you know what’s coming and how unavoidable it seems.
