Solar Ash in the test with video: via Speedrun through the galaxy - stylish high speed

With the fantastic Hyper Light Drifter, the small Studio Heart Machine in 2016 has managed to hug the Indie Darling. Five years later, the second neon-soaked space trip in the starting blocks is:

Solar Ash leaves the pixeled Zelda alleges of its mental predecessor left and instead focuses on high-speed platforming in a worn 3D world.

Why this works on the one hand, but on the other hand, the game is left behind his ways, we clarify in the test!

She slips into the role of the vidrunnerin REI, whose home planet threatens to be swallowed and crushed by a gigantic black hole called Ultravoid.

And the key to rescue your home is, how should it be different, of course in the middle of this black hole: An artifact called star salsa is to be able to retrieve the time and push your planet from the gravitas of the ultravoid.

Smoothie from the Game World Mixer

Already with his first scenes Solar Ash clears: here there is a lot to admire! Source: PC Games Because the black hole has previously incorporated some other planets in Solar Ash, a wonderfully surreal, varied and often breathtakingly beautiful world, which is composed of various diodes, cultures and buildings. The whole thing is held together by a sea of ​​sturdy clouds, on which you can ruin elegantly.

Occasionally, Solar Ash also uses the twisted gravity in the ultravoid to conjure a few really crazy and impressive environments on the screen, of which it would have been much more allowed. Nevertheless, the game world is clearly the star of Solar Ash and find out in which Sci-Fi fever dream it takes you next, is the largest motivational factor in the game!

Launch the colors

The sparingly used opponents are completed quickly, but at least requires minimally different strategies. Source: PC Games The extremely stylish optics of Solar Ash suits this setting like the fist on the eye. The game combines the deliberately simple, reduced graphic style of a Journey or the Paleness with the strong, surreal coloring of Hyper Light Drifter.

Thus, the developer remains true to his optical line and sends you as in the spiritual predecessor on an almost psychedelic journey through a fascinating game world. And where we are already in psychedelic: the excellent movement of the high-speed platformer also ensures that you move over long stretches as in trance through the game.

Hyper Light Surfer

As a runner, you have a few useful tools with which you handle the oblique jump passages. The most important thing about it is at your feet: With your inline skates you can not only live on edges, but otherwise surf with an affinity through the area.

Combined with gripping hooks, double jump and boost, there is a lightning-fast, great controllable and liquid movement, thanks to which you just no longer want to stop. Because of the generous lock-on for your melee attack, you even broke the sparse opponents in the full run.

The tasks that completed her in the sequentially unlocked areas play this movement also very successful in the maps: In each zone, you must conquer a fragment, a huge monster of mucus and bone, to activate a node on the star satin. Before you have to extinguish all smaller anomalies in the area.

And they always design themselves as an obstacle course on time: With break-breaking maneuvers, you destroy the nerve endings of the mucus formation almost in flying past, before you can build your shield and shut down. The time limits are so scarce that you have to master the movement possibilities of your character.
