Here in Solar Ash, we essentially have all three, which makes a tough task of accounting whether you, personally, should part with $35 to play it. This occurs when a title comes from a beloved developer, is an anticipated sequel/follow-up, or is a deliberate title likely to appeal only to a niche corner of the gaming community. On occasion, video game reviews can be pretty daunting.
Skating in the wake of the 2016 smash hit Hyper Light Drifter, Solar Ash hopes to capture the same phantasmagorical wonder of that neon-electric sci-fi adventure, similarly awash with mood, abstraction, and otherworldly intrigue.
This is the story of Solar Ash, the highly anticipated second release from indie developer Heart Machine. Her team missing, her communications lost, and with the plan now a catastrophe, it is up to this final courageous traveler to explore the Ultravoid, find her companions, activate the Starseed and, hopefully, return home from the brink of oblivion. Battered, broken, and alone, one Voidrunner seemingly remains, perched on the void’s event horizon. In the midst of a do-or-die operation to activate the Starseed, a powerful device that can destroy the Ultravoid from within, the Voidunners journey has become a calamity. Something, however, has gone terribly wrong.
Taking matters into their own hands are the Voidrunners, a fearless and talented squad of adventurers, scientists, and technicians, whose mastery of both time and space stands as the one hope for the planet, and perhaps the rest of the galaxy. As it bears down on its next victim, the government seems incapable of reaching an agreement on what is to be done, poised at the complete obliteration of their homeworld. An insatiable black hole - The Ultravoid - is ripping the galaxy apart, mercilessly swallowing up entire stars, planets, and civilizations. Somewhere, in another time and another place, armageddon looms.
