![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() Hello Games founder & spokesperson, Sean Murray became the target for most of the audience’s dissatisfaction after going on record confirming features that were simply not in the game, such as his infamous comments on No Man’s Sky multiplayer. Unfortunately, what was set to be one of the year’s most exciting games disappointed on release struggling to live up to the hype with many of the previously touted features failing to make it into the final release. Billed as the ultimate space-themed sandbox, the hype for Sean Murray’s ambitious game reached never before seen heights for an indie, with Sony pushing the game as one of their premier exclusives on the console. It mesmerised audiences with its 2015 E3 demo and captured people’s imagination with the idea of exploring an infinite universe. No Man’s Sky was quite possibly one of the most controversial indie games of all time. Even if Unravel didn’t particularly innovate in the overpopulated puzzle-platformer genre, its light-yet-engaging puzzle solving and warm atmosphere helped it stand out from the crowd and earn a place on this list – and in our hearts. The game had a lovably cosy presentation, and the puzzle design being based around Yarny’s movements slowly being limited by his unspooling thread was an adorable stroke of genius: interacting with the world by using your twine to push and pull discarded cans of soda, build bridges with twigs and swing about from tire-swings was a delight all the way through little Yarny’s adventure. Unravel was a ridiculously huggable game. It’s an incredibly difficult game to master and could be deal breaker for some, for others who want a great co-operative game with their friends and an excuse to get angry, should look no further. ![]()
