After years of hype and several delays ,, Hyperlag Finally, early access to Steam came in the last month. Finally, the players were able to immerse themselves in their atmospheric mashup made of prey, extraction shooters and rogua elements, and what they found was not great. It was widespread from its strenuous boss fights to accidental research. The team behind the co-op game has now published a roadmap for upcoming corrections and new content waste and says that it is “no regret” to achieve the game than it did.
“There is no time that you can spend in isolation that make the game great,” Lead Producer at Heart Machine, Michael Clark, told PC gamers this week. “You get the best version of a game by maximizing the amount of feedback and surgical loops that you can go through, and early access is the way to do this for a title like this.”
With a “mixed” rating and only 63 percent positive reviews on Steam, there is a lot of work that the studio has signaled in a newly announced roadmap. An update from February 18 promises a new playable character, more enemies, equipment and combat equalization as well as error loans. A similar improvement, including further new content, is planned for March. April will be the big update, called with a drop in content Buried below This aims to improve onboarding and add more enemies and characters.
Hyperlag Comes as A spin-off too Hyperliche -drifterThe atmospheric 2016 2D Zelda-Wie that has won the heart and heads as a Kickstarter ton height before becoming one of the last generation of retro-inspired indie favorites. Heart machine was also started Sunbash In 2021A 3D action adventure platform that Breaker Build up with crispy fight and more RPG systems.
However, early reviews were brutal from negative reviews from IGN and skillup For a constant current of discouraging comments on Steam's Store page reviewers, everything complain about the emptiness of the procedural cards, the players explore players about the boss fights against crowns, which they have to complete for progress. “This is more feedback for the developers than an assessment for players,” says a negative steam check. “The game is in an unacceptable condition, even for early access. The onboarding experience is one of the worst I've ever seen and I am a Space Flight Sim player. “
I only played a few hours after the game's early access, which didn't feel enough to achieve a temporary judgment myself. But it was enough to convince me that there is a lot of promise, although there are a lot of promise while Hyperlag Has too many rough edges so that I can continue to deal with it in its current state. I'll say that The ambience and musicIn accordance with the previous Heart Machine projects, everyone is first class. The gameplay is not there yet, even for an early access game.
The new roadmap is aimed at many of the symptoms that are currently scattering the Steam side, especially for the difficulty of the game, that many players clearly beaten less “very challenging” and “sloppy and not funnier”. At the same time, it is an ambitious timeline for corrections that may be difficult to deliver in view of the past delays in the project and some layoffs in the studio at the end of last year. When Heart Machine delivers her latest promises, Hyperlag Could be the studio's play fans, hoped to play in just a few months.
