Hyper Light Drifter: A Resource-Management 2D Game
Hyper Light Drifter is a 2D action game developed by Heart Machine, with a Kickstarter-funded project that has been released for PC, consoles, and the Switch. The game is a tribute to The Legend of Zelda and Diablo series and draws inspiration from Studio Ghibli cartoons. The game follows the story of Drifter, who controls a sword composed of technological achievements not yet known to the world.
In Hyper Light Drifter, the player must find a cure for a strange disease that no one knows how to heal. To do this, they must navigate through a beautifully designed world and battle enemies to gain power for their Energy Sword and long-ranged weapons. The game has a high focus on resource-management, making it unique in its genre.
