Towerfall is a 2D arena battler in which up to four archers attempt to off one another through the use of arrows, head-stomps, and environmental hazards. The controls are incredibly simple, consisting only of jump, dash, and shoot, but there’s considerable depth to the strategies that the finely-honed mechanics bring to each encounter.
It's right that we recognize the 12 best indie games of the eight generation of gaming. It would be remiss to ignore the impact they've had.
Hollow Knight was a masterpiece. I cared less for the arena combat (Gods, not in the in-game arena) but everything was tight and the exploration was extremely enjoyable. Absolute masters of their craft in level design. I hope Silk Song gives the bees a second chance since their area was only a short subsection.
TowerFall Ascension is free right now at Epic Games Store. It is free until December 21 at 10 AM. Once you claim it, it’s yours to keep.
