Anyone else playing Hollow Knight? It's an absolutely gorgeous indie metroidvania game that also makes an excellent study in graphics design. There are some misteps, but the overall quality and choices they did is nothing short of brilliant. Gameplay is solid, so don't think that this is all show and no substance. You're also getting a lot of value for the price, since it has a huge amount of content that you can do for between twenty to forty hours.

Of course, this isn't a good game for those who don't like getting lost or not knowing where to go. I've seen some performance problems with lag and it's also a little finicky with the map system, but a recent patch has improved things a fair bit.

Bought it after seeing Lobos Jr. playing it. Just beat the second boss last time I played. Really beautiful art direction with a great attention to detail, and the atmosphere is lovely -- just the perfect mix of haunting and charming.
