A downloadable game

Can you make it to the Fly in this brutal, precision-based platformer? Muster your courage and master your hops platform by platform until there are no more jumps to make.

Hop Pants is a challenging vertical climber for those who find pleasure amidst the suffering. Akin to the punishing ascents of Jump King and Getting Over It with Bennett Foddy, every position matters and every hop is calculated. A single error could send you back down to do it all again. Will you succeed?

(Price: £5.99 - a little bit more than a meal-deal in this economy, yet somehow you'll suffer more)
