Hyper Light Breaker won't make it to 1.0 as work on the promising roguelike ends
With lofty expectations stemming from its incredible RPG Hyper Light Drifter, Heart Machine had a tough task ahead of it with Hyper Light Breaker. A co-op roguelike based in the same universe and with suitably striking visuals, the game was packed with potential, but sadly struggled to find its feet in early access. The studio has been working hard on turning things around with major updates, but it's now been confirmed that development on Hyper Light Breaker will be ending as Heart Machine goes through another round of layoffs.
