Solar Ash

Platformer Fantasy Adventure

Summary

Chasing momentum like a stylish speedrunner, Solar Ash blends high-velocity platforming and precise action into a surreal playground. This action-adventure platformer from Heart Machine and Annapurna Interactive launched on December 8, 2022, bringing fluid skating traversal, air-dashes, and grapple lines that reward solo mastery. Colossal bosses turn movement into a skill test, asking players to read patterns, chain attacks, and overcome tight windows for personal bests. The neon voidscape frames a reflective narrative about sacrifice, while crisp controls make it easy to try hard lines and harder routes on Windows and PlayStation 4. Fans of platformer games and action games like Devil May Cry will appreciate its emphasis on timing and aggression, while the kinetic combat nods to fighting games like Brawlhalla in its focus on spacing. With time trial vibes and expressive combos, it often lands on indie game recommendations for those chasing challenge and growth.
