Hover! the sequel?

Well, sort of.  The 1995 game included with Windows 95 now has a kind-of remastered version for web browsers.  It was released last year from Microsoft -- the creators of the original -- and I’m happy to say this new Hover! is in the same spirit of gameplay as the original.  Same rules apply: capture your enemy’s flags before they get all of yours.  It runs at a silky smooth 60fps and can work with any web browser that supports WebGL.  New to the game is a multiplayer mode that requires you to send a generated code to others you want to play with.  Visually, it’s awesome to see they structured the levels like the original, but it’s a bummer to see they used textures that make the levels look cold and sterile.

Funny thing is that it doesn’t seem to work on Internet Explorer, but it works perfectly fine on Firefox.  D'oh!

 

 

HOT TIP: type “bambi” at the start screen before clicking anything else. ;-)
