Description

From the creators of the award-winning Hyper Light Drifter comes the high-speed and gravity-bending world of Solar Ash.

Set amidst a surreal dreamscape filled with long-abandoned ruins of great civilizations past, you play as Rei, a Voidrunner determined to stop at nothing to save her planet from falling prey to the Ultravoid’s path of eternal hunger.

Fight through mobs of grotesque creatures, grind rails with sheer delight, grapple to wild heights, take down enormous bosses, and surf the ashen clouds of shattered, bygone worlds swallowed by the void.

In this highly stylized action adventure unlike no other, will Rei persevere and make her way through the deadly encounters of this ravenous void in order to save her home? Will she learn the truth about these massive beasts that roam this strange land and uncover the mysteries of the Starseed and Echo?

The answer to these questions, and more, awaits you in the Ultravoid.

A game that, when it works is an absolute blast to play. Sadly, I found this joy to infrequently throughout my playthrough. Great moment to moment movement hamstrung by floaty controls and a sloppy camera. In addition,

Gonna make a hot take and say I missed the charm of the pixel art and visual only story telling from Hyper light drifter. That being said, still feel the love from the devs, even though I only played an hour, it just

In my opinion Solar Ash is an underrated and underappreciated gem. The gameplay is fun and satisfying, especially if you enjoy movement based games there is a lot of fun and challenge to be had here. The story is also

A neon-soaked Prey-for-the-Gods, but with more of a skating / running vibe. I'm not a huge fan of 'runner' games like Mirror's Edge and Ghostrunner where if you stop, you die. Fortunately, Solar Ash is a bit more chill

1. This game = focus on exploration + bosses like "shadow of the colossus" + story can be ignored. 2. This game takes less than 10 hours to complete. 3. The patterns of defeating the boss is same for all boss just the

If I have to play The Boss Is Lava one more time, I'm going to scream. Visuals & music are great. Movement is awesome, when it works. Mostly it doesn't. I've never had to try so hard to get onto a rail that's right in
