AER: Memories of Old may be a short game, it may have zero combat with light puzzling and platforming that isn’t going to set any sort of great challenge for players, but that isn’t really what this adventure is about and it's great to see a developer realise its vision without relying on comforts that gamers so often expect to pad out their playing experiences. Developer Forgotten Key has crafted an enchanting world here, with a fantastically fun and fitting means of traversing it; a splintered land full of melancholy memories in which you soar, a singular source of hope in flight above a world that’s relying on you for salvation. It’s a trip, a meditation on the nature of man and his fractured relationship with the natural world around him, a beautiful journey that's well worth taking.

Aer reminds me of a dream world that isn't fully fleshed-out, like a actually memory would be. The low poly graphical style helps to invoke a liminal-dreamy vibe. I fully intend on starting over soon as it's been a few years since I last played it... and I miss the feeling of flying around the sky islands in Aer.
