A Quick Look at Hack N Slash

Kotaku's Kirk Hamilton takes a look at Hack N Slash, a Zelda-like game that literally lets you hack it.

Reminds me of the good old 90s, when I would randomly enter codes into my Action Replay and totally screw with the assets in Kirby's Dream Land.

Wow i was really wondering how this game was going to work but now that I see it I'm extremely excited for this game to be a thing!

[SolarBang]

The one and only game you can appreciate being shipped out broken.

Im learning about electronics: that will be a must have

It looks amazing! I hope they market it well so people don't buy it expecting a "normal" Zelda kind of game.

See, this is kind of thing I'm always talking about referring to, Innovative GAMEPLAY. Why can't the big "AAA" game developers do games like this? They are to afraid to RISK and the MARKET games that aren't cinematic "realistic" action games/FPS's/Sports games....    This game looks *brilliant* so far!

Don't think I'm the only one that's imagining what hacking enemies is going to be like.  Or better still, hacking bosses.

Double Fine, how the heck do they do it? Always coming up with something cool. And is it just me or does the hacking in this simple game look cooler than the hacking in AAA Watch Dogs kinda? And I work with development code for a living too. I shoulda thought of this! lol

[cloudstrife]

[StormStar]
