i really like hylics 1. hylics 2 may be objectively more polished, plays better, has more interesting mechanics, but i absolutely love how jank and homemade hylics 1 feels. the limitations of rpg maker can lead to some really interesting creations, and i feel hylics 1 is the posterchild of that. if you look at mason lindroth's other works from around the time, you can see just how smooth and refined his style was, so to see it trimmed down and chopped up as it is in hylics 1 due to rpg maker's limitations is really interesting. definitely worth your time, and is at a really low price on steam
