Listen "103: Hyper Light Drifter"
Episode Synopsis
Hyper Light Drifter is a tough-as-nails indie action-RPG game that came out earlier this year. After initially bouncing off the game, we gave it a second look and found a lot to like past its punishing skill barrier and intentional obscurity. Stay tuned past the spoiler break for tips on boss order, and for Shane’s impressions of the new PlayStation VR.
Apologies for the delay getting you this episode. We’ll be back very soon with more coverage of IFComp 2016!
