The aestherics are good but it gets really repetitive very fast. Most of your time will be spent in figuring out where the hell you are supposed to be going rather than anything challenging.

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 really interesting in my opinion, as you play as a voidrunner, which is a group of people who take it upon themselves to save their planet from a world eating black hole.

One of the greatest strengths of this game, much like the beloved Hyperlight Drifter, is the art direction, which is always stunning. They really have created a unique world here that is worth exploring, and full of unique characters.

If you enjoyed HLD and don't mind the switch to 3d movement based gameplay, you should find a lot to like here.

ok game i expected it to be different and better ngl its quite basic like the time slow down is literally never needed and underutilised maybe the hardcore mode be good idk but ye quite basic and simple the story seems interesting but i didnt pay attention to it unfortunately i played like the first 70% of this game on steam deck and i thought it doesnt have voice acting maybe volume was slow so i just skipped the text
