Our take on HOPSHOT

Instead of giving its platforming character a conventional movement set, HOPSHOT limits the frog to hopping and shooting. Mid-air trajectory changes make each jump a planning decision, while automatic saving after every jump breaks progress into small stages.

What is HOPSHOT?

This challenging precision platformer follows a solitary gay frog carrying a pistol.

Movement is limited to leaps and gunfire, requiring route planning, careful aiming, and shots to overcome hazards. The frog can redirect its path while airborne, making each jump a tactical choice. Hidden skin colors and hats provide secrets to find, while progress is saved automatically whenever a jump ends. Jumping, aiming, and firing are the only three controls. Failure can cast the frog into the base of the Wishing Well, a place inhabited by lost souls.

How HOPSHOT plays

01Mid-Air Trajectory: The frog can change its trajectory while airborne, making each jump part of the route-planning process.
02Hidden Customization: Exploration can reveal secret frog colors and hats.
03Jump-Based Saving: The game auto-saves after every jump.
04Three Core Controls: The control set consists of jumping, aiming, and shooting.
