#BigHops is in Steam Next Fest!
It's a good hour long taste of our adventure: you'll use your tongue, learn to climb, find veggies you can build paths with, and borrow a stranger's backpack.

We did it! All these green lines are scenes in Big Hops that have finished VO. Now I can really say all 100 of our NPCs are voiced 🥲
The couple of red spots are test scenes.

Hops and DK Bananza have a similar nut / vine building mechanic! It’s always cool finding out we’re in a similar design space to the best teams at Nintendo.

Somehow managed to turn on a collision debug mode on Bananza on my retail Switch 2 and... all the colliders are banana shaped. I can't imagine that being the optimal collision shape, but it works for them I guess.

Real ones know Bananza started with this janky, barely used voxel snow mechanic in Odyssey.

Ruffy and the Riverside is out today! I was super charmed by the demo and their swap magic core mechanic has a lot of potential. I'll be checking this out over the weekend for sure :)

I’m excited we’ve hit 1,000 backers for #BigHops today. It’s encouraging to know that many people believe in the game enough to pay at least $25 before it’s done.
