The Boneyard is my favorite level. You'll launch between barrel cannons, climb on the back of a bone mammoth, and rob some graves (if you're up to it).

This is based on a single playthrough of the demo alone but the dynamism, freedom, and technical wizardry of player-deployed level design features and platforming tools was the thing that made Big Hops feel "not retro."

I’m sharing a lot of stuff about Big Hops because as someone who loves 3D platformers and games with in depth movement mechanics, I need you all to know: this one is the real deal and you shouldn’t sleep on it

I’m only like 90 minutes into Big Hops, but the game hella slaps on Switch 2.
