Hover: Revolt of Gamers in the works for Wii U

Within the past few days, news has surfaced that Fusty Game intends to bring Hover: Revolt of Gamers to Wii U. It’s a free-runner set in an impressive-looking futuristic open world.

In the game, you’ll play as a “Gamer Team” from another world while trying to locate and infiltrate control centers of the anti-video games propaganda, free citizens confined by the authorities, retrieve consoles confiscated from the population, and dethrone the new mayor who has enacted a dictatorship.

We recently caught up with Fusty Game to learn more about Hover: Revolt of Gamers, and were presented with a few words from developer Marine Baron.

When asked about bringing Hover to Nintendo’s console, Baron said that the team of three at Fusty Game “really like[s] the Wii U and we want to support it.” Contact hasn’t been made with Nintendo just yet.

For those wondering, Fusty Game does intend to take advantage of the Wii U controller. Baron said the device is “interesting for our game” and the team has “some ideas on how to use the GamePad.”

And some good news for Wii U owners: Hover will come with the same features on Nintendo’s platform as the other versions – PC, PS4, and Xbox One – including a multiplayer mode that allows players to cooperate with others in missions and experience configurable versus events.

Hover: Revolt of Gamers looks good. Pretty darn good, especially for such a small team. How is Fusty mangaging to produce this kind of project? “Our secret is many working hours (80 hours/week) and to be ambitious,” Baron told us. “There is no magic.”

Development on Hover: Revolt of Gamers is only just beginning, so there’s sadly no word yet on when the game will be available. We’re told that a Kickstarter campaign will launch soon, so keep your eyes peeled for that.
