A drifter's life is a drifter's wife



<span class="bold">Hyper Light Drifter</span>, an immersive action/RPG where you explore the dark echoes of ruined civilizations, is now available, for Windows, Mac, and Linux, DRM-free on GOG.com with a 10% launch discount.

You are withering away. An affliction grips you, poisons your thoughts, and guides your energy sword to plunge further into the swirling darkness of ages past. Travelling through the remnants of the lands of Buried Time has always been your calling, but now it has become a desperate quest for self-preservation.

Collecting pieces of ancient technology, unearthing buried knowledge, and exploring treacherous ruins is the Hyper Light Drifter's way of life. Along with your trusted drone companion, Sprite, you will delve into dense forests, floating structures, and abandoned but not uninhabited dungeons seeking forgotten treasures and well-guarded secrets that might hold the cure to your terrible disease. Vicious, fast-paced battles await you. Your customizable arsenal of weapons and defensive systems, as well as your fluid maneuvers will prove critical when faced with the hulking bosses and the brutal terrain. Don't let the haunting music and the evocative pixel-art fool you: the shoes of a Drifter are steeped in blood and secrets that should be left undisturbed.



Rummage through the alluring yet deadly relics of broken worlds as a <span class="bold">Hyper Light Drifter</span>, DRM-free on GOG.com. The 10% launch discount will last until April 7 00:59 AM PDT / 4:59 AM EDT / 9:59 BST.
Looks nice.
Been looking forward to this one for a good while. I'm hoping us Kickstarter backers will be offered GOG keys and not just the Steam/console keys mentioned in the latest KS update.

Looks like HB's hosting the backer DRM-free version for now.

Try reinstalling directx
Hello. Having bought the game by pre-order, in the game's page on my library it prevents me from installing it by stating it's "not compatible". I'm running Windows 10 in a laptop with specifications above the requirements, namely, intel core i7-4870hq, nvidia geforce gtx 980m, 32 gb ram and 337 gb hd space. What might be the reason for this?

If you have an integrated graphic card along with that geforce it might be the problem.
Dev ignored backers request for gogkeys as an options. Not happy.

I wont be backing anymore KS projects unless devs provide gog as a valid option if possible (oh Humble fucked up the release.)
