Support NeoGAF

HeartMachine is apparently struggling and asking for money through a Patreon.



Their upcoming title was announced in june, with Devolver support. Possessor(s).



Is the game cancelled ? Moved to another studio ? Does someone have intel ?

It's out today with a free trial on PSN for a hour.

Gonna try the trial and report back.

Only played a little over 30 minutes but even asking $15 for this seems too high.

There's no voice acting. About 3 still portraits per character. It's like… you look at this then you look at something like Hades 2 and you wonder why devs can't keep up.

This game would've worked maybe 15 years ago? It's mashy combat. Seems to be a Metroidvania?

Writing is whatever and story seems like it's going down a cliche road.

Is there any studio with more Ls after an initial massive hit? Hyper light drifter is amazing and all their work since is just bleh.

They should've made Hyper Light Drifter 2, even if it might've took them years to make and release it today (Hollow Knight 2 was in development for ~9 years). Idk why they didn't but the result of this we can see today.
