Supergiant has thst special magic going on with them. I was vaugely familiar with Bastion and Transistor but Hades really cemented them for me as a studio that consistently puts out quality stuff.

You may be pleased to know that Supergiant streamed their first tech demo of Hades 2 yesterday. Looks pretty great!
Sweet!
It's crazy how many times they can remake the same game and manage to keep it fresh at every time
Pyre is the one miss imo.
This is haram Pyre is their best game. You will die on this hill.
May this be our final battle 
An honor comrade 
I love all the games of theirs I've played so far, and I've hated the weird enemy HP scaling in all their games I've played so far. And I feel like I'm the only one that does.
I swear that was just a fucking incredible album that happened to come with a game attached.
What a great game. I'm stoked for Hades 2
Is there a release date for it yet?
I haven't seen a release date yet but Supergiant did a livestream about Hades 2 yesterday and it looks great
Bastion OST is played once every session whenever I DM a game. Without fail. It goes so goddamn hard.
Ambient Frontier Trip-Hop is something else
I absolutely loved Bastion. I ended up picking up Hades, not realizing it was the same developer, and falling in love with Hades as well. Couldn't be more excited for Hades 2
I'd suggest giving Pyre and Transistor a go as well.
Should I play this? I think I own a copy, but never played more than a couple minutes of it.
Imagine if Hades was more jank but had a way better narrator
I haven't played Hades either
Its a very short game so wouldn't hurt to give it a go.
Yes. It's great
Those Caelondians, they could really carry a tune
I loved what I played of that game. Unfortunately I played it exclusively with a partner who really hurt me so now I've got difficult memories associated with it. Hoping to get over those so I can finish it on my own, such an interesting game
Sorry to hear that. We need to build Communism so you can create new memories of this game with people who don't hurt you 
It's not even an every now and then kinda thing for me. I legit listen to this soundtrack all the time at work
Vaguely anti-imperialist too if I recall the plot
