We have emerged from the depths of the BioShock sequence to start a contemporary season of Video Gameography! We’re doing issues in another way this time as we’re discussing the gameography of a developer somewhat than masking a person recreation sequence. That studio is Supergiant Video games, the acclaimed indie developer of Bastion, Transistor, Pyre, and Hades. This week, we conclude our season by analyzing 2020’s Hades.
Not like Supergiant Video games’ earlier titles, Hades had two launch dates. Its first launch got here on December 6, 2018 when it launched in early entry on PC, whereas the complete recreation was obtainable to be performed on September 17, 2020. Hades takes every thing the studio has discovered up so far and blends them into an bold rogue-lite that is developed in a means the group has by no means skilled earlier than: with the gaming public taking part in the sport because it’s being made. Try this episode to be taught the backstory of how Pyre’s massive forged of characters impressed the evolving narrative of Zagreus and his dysfunctional diety household, how the studio fared creating an early entry recreation, and be taught all about Greek mythology from our visitor, the incomparable Jill Grodt.
