Fusty Game, Midgar Studio and The Sidekicks are proud to announce that after a successful Kickstarter in 2014 and a very fertile Early Access period, Hover : Revolt of Gamers is now released on PC, Mac and Linux.

It’s a real achievement for the Fusty Game team, composed of only 3 young developers who received the support of Midgar Studio on the home stretch of the early access.

Hover: Revolt of Gamers offers an unique experience based on a fast-paced gameplay yet without violence, guns or blood. It’s all about “Parkouring” an incredible city, high speed racing, mega jumps, tricks and combos in a wide futuristic open world.

Hover takes you to ECP17, also called Hover City, a high-tech city built on a distant planet where the Great Admin established a strong dictatorship and banned any kind of entertainment.

Players are in charge of a team of young rebels, the Gamers, equipped with high-tech gears allowing amazing jumps and speed. They roam the city to fight against the new anti-leisure laws, sabotage the propaganda, help citizens, and find a way to put an end to the oppression.


Hover’s buildings offer breathtaking vertical playgrounds where you will have to prove your value. Deride the security forces, rise up to many challenges, assemble the best possible, upgrade your gear and experience the adrenaline of speed and height.

Hover : Revolt of Gamers is both a single and multiplayer experience. At any time you can switch from offline to online mode and join your friends or players from around the world. You can progress through the adventure by cooperating or play against them. Hover : Revolt of Gamers is a community-driven game offering many tools to players to create missions or mini games.

Hello everyone!

Here’s some news from the Early Access of Hover: Revolt of Gamers! Let’s start with a new video:

Teaser E-Cop Prison Update



By the time you read this text, a new update will be up and running on steam. It introduces the Prison, an "infiltration" stage. :)
Do you see the giant E-Cop Tower? The entrance to the prison is located right below. After you finished his missions, Otello will wait you in front of the exterior entrance and ask you to investigate about missing citizens.

Charles built the Prison as a complex with many chambers and halls, filled with cameras, lasers, movement detection floors etc... More than ever in Hover, a great sense of observation and a tremendous amount of agility (and insouciance ^^') will be required! Don't run on the movement detection floors or a Secubox will chase you. Keep in mind that you can "walk" silently by crouching. Starting from this update, the DNA-Kit of the E-Cop is unlockable by finding it in this stage. You will also find in the Prison some new lost gamegirls or some usefull backstory informations, so keep looking around between 2 traps. Who knows, maybe you will meet a citizen who needs your help....

This special stage proposes a pretty high challenge. You'd better train your walljumps and slides under the cameras in the city before entering the area!




Pierre developed a new arresting system. The first time you get arrested by a Secubox, you will be immobilized for several seconds. With the second arrest you will be sent to a rehabilitation platform (as it is currently the case). But now, from the 3rd arrest you will go directly into a detention cell in the prison. And you will have to find a way out too!

If you don’t want to go to jail every single time you get caught, you will have to find and hack an E-Cop antenna (pictures below). By hacking it, you will be able to delete your criminal record.

Another new feature, you can now scan Locabox points to define your postal address in the game. Having a postal address allow you to spawn at this point every time you start the game. The Locabox points are very numerous, it's everywhere, so you will have a wide range of spawn points (and you can change at any time).

There will also be some teleporters to every corner of the city allowing you to quickly return to your postal address. Obviously, you will not be able to use these teleporters during a mission. That would be cheating!


Apart from that, we recently moved in our brand new offices! Our friends from Midgar Studio that hosted us from time to time offered us to join them permanently in their lair. They gave us our full own place. So we now have way better working conditions!

The new version of the fast paced parkour game was unveiled at the Gamescom last week and is now available for everyone on Steam Early Access.

With more than 10 000 players, Hover: Revolt of Gamer is running a successful Early Access on Steam. The game entered a new important stage this week with the release of the Alpha 3.0 build. This is a full new version of the game that has been delivered after several months of development.

This Alpha 3.0 offers a brand new Hover City. It has been entirely re-designed and re-coded in order to answer the players feedbacks and demands. The most critical improvement is on the performance side. The new city is optimized to offer the best possible framerate and a perfectly smooth gaming experience. It also benefits many graphical enhancements with new building models, new textures and object details.

Many additions have also been done to bring more life into the city. The city lights and atmosphere now change through a Day & Night cycle, there is more NPC in the streets and many effects have been added all around.

A new playable character is now available: Veelan. She is a very fast running alien. But this speed makes her a bit more tricky to control. It opens new challenges for the players. Veelan comes with its own stories and set of missions and the personal missions of the already available characters have all been improved too.

On the gameplay side, many improvements has also been brought to the game. It starts with the basics as players can go through a full new tutorial, more fun to play but also much more explicit about the game core gameplay and commands.

This is only a few highlights of what the Alpha 3.0 brought to Hover. A full patch note is available on the Steam page of the game. With this new stage, Hover makes a huge step toward beta and release and now offer the players more fun than ever before.
