Deemo vs Hyper Light Drifter
Deemo
Deemo is a unique music rhythm game that doesn't only feature a gameplay which rewards carefully-timed taps; it also features a rich and heartwarming story about a mystical character, the Deemo, who has unwittingly found joy in having a companion, a little, amnesiac girl who fell from the sky, and yet realized that it will eventually have to let her go back to her own world. Despite being a creature of sorts, its struggles are oddly human and hence, it makes the game so much more relatable to so many.Aside from having brilliantly hand-drawn art to illustrate the storytelling, the game also has amazing gameplay that's simple enough to learn and intuitive enough to grasp quickly. The game contains over 220 songs of varying genres from all over the world too. In fact, from the story mode alone, you can enjoy more than 60 of its best songs for free.
Deemo is one of Rayark Games' most iconic, if not, best creations. The company manages to blend the fun of an action rhythm game with epic storytelling, resulting in a game that's unlike any other. If you appreciate a good story and enjoys rhythm games, you'll want to try Deemo.
Hyper Light Drifter
Hyper Light Drifter is an action-adventure RPG with a very unique pixel-based art style and a fun gameplay that will keep you coming back for more. The storyline in this game is pretty bleak since you play as a drifter who happens to have an odd but vicious disease that keeps haunting your thoughts and dodging your every move. By traveling to the dark and savage lands of Buried Time, you hope to find a way to finally be free of this illness.Being ill, you aren't exactly in your fighting prime and so, instead of relying on your frailing strength, combat in this game mainly involves dashing away to avoid blows and trying to strike the enemy in between dashes. In some way, it may feel like being the less burly underdog in a WWE match. There are plenty of weapons to help you though, along with a variety of incredible skills which you can master.
The world you play in is also quite vast, with plenty of hidden nooks and crannies - usually with a bonus reward in them - for you to find. In addition to the story mode, there is a horde mode (endless) as well where you can truly put your combat skills to the test. However, one of the best things about this game is the soundtrack which somehow seems to complement the game's graphics and its overall atmosphere perfectly.
With the unique pixel art and the old-school feel, Hyper Light Drifter may not be everyone's cup of tea, but if you do enjoy such games, you'll find that this game is truly a hidden indie gem.
