Friend, are you weary of talk of blockbuster space-faring RPGs and blockbuster D&D adaptations and blockbusters in general? Do you yearn for the older, simpler days before the great Unrealification and the invention of sex scenes, when people called a spike pit a spike pit, and you could count all the different colours in a screenshot on your fingers? Do you, in fact, reject this framing of retro-styled 2D pixelart games as “older” and “simpler”, regarding it as condescending and false? Look, shut up already. I’m trying to tell you about Isles of Sea and Sky from developers Jason Newman, Dan Collver and Craig Collver.
Oh believe me I’m definitely going to play all of them, just don’t have a way to yet. Super excited about A Link Between Worlds too and even though I said that I look at each and every new Zelda game in awe. Can’t wait to get to them. I’m currently somewhere in the Water Temple in OOT on my first play-through
Oh boy. The hard temple.
Good luck.
