Hyper Gauntlet: The Legacy of Nozzlethrust III is a manic-paced arcade first person infinite runner influenced by Super Hexagon, BIT.TRIP Runner, Wipeout and Temple Run. Players control an invisible force in an abstract and minimalist arena, constantly hurtling forwards through gaps between blue and red obstacles. As obstacles are passed and the score increases, the player runs faster and faster. To help them in their never-ending race, the player can slow down time for a few seconds to dodge through a particularly tricky section. The game rewards you for making split-second decisions and never taking the easy way out. It is currently in Late Alpha stages, and will soon be entering Early Beta.

Post news Report RSS Saturday Update #1 - Let's get this ball rolling

Massive updates to Hyper Gauntlet and news on the impending beta release.

Posted by on

Welcome to the first ever Saturday Update! This one goes live later than I'd normally like because I was doing old-man things like sleeping.

Lots of progress on Hyper Gauntlet this week, the main point being that I've finished the beta version! Right now I'm building a folder of PR material before the big push, but expect a release data and price sometime this coming week. Are you excited? I know I am!

Looking for more concrete changes? Allow me to show you using pixels!

hg new
I changed the background colours to ease confusion

New level up
I've altered how level ups work (now they give you power-ups!)

transparent blocks
Transparent blocks now show you when you're immune to certain obstacles.

new menu
I've made ever so tiny cosmetic changes to the menu!

So that's it for this week, tune in some time next week for another Saturday Update!
