Fusty Game is happy to announce the release today of a big update for Hover: Revolt of Gamers. It includes a full new map: Hover City Sewers. The sewers are a vast underground map full of secret places to find and explore and also new goals to achieve. In addition to this new large area to explore, this update unveils a large part of the storyline with a focus on the Gamer Resistance.

• Background:

Hover City’s authorities totally abandoned the Sewers. They so became a perfect place for the Gamer Resistance to hide and secretly gather. The Sewers are the most strategic place for the rebels. In the undergrounds, they have set up race courses and Gameball stadiums. They are used to challenge the newcomers, select and train the best recruits before them being sent in dangerous missions. Most of all, the Sewers are the shelter of the Resistance Head Quarter. This hidden place is hard to find for news comers. Finding the entrance is part of the challenge for proving you are worth to join.

• Gameplay / Content:

The Sewers are a very large map made of labyrinthine tunnels and large themed rooms. Players will have access to 3 new large Gameball stadiums as well as 3 new themed races. These races will require characters with high levels in specific skills, like speed, jump or grind. This announces an upcoming evolution of Hover’s gameplay. Within a few weeks, the dev team will introduce a new team system. Instead of focusing on a single character, players will be encouraged to create a team of rebels, each of them having special skills and abilities. Having a balanced team will be essential to progress in the storyline and achieve the objectives. The player will be able to switch anywhere from a character to another in order to match the challenge.
Also in a next update, the Sewers will even more become a primary place in the plot-line and the gameplay. It will become mandatory to succeed in the Resistance challenges to get access to the Prison and learn more about the story. For now in this current version, the prison is still accessible regardless of what the player did or did not in the Sewers.
The Sewers update brings a lot of new content and missions for the players:

• An hidden marathon race proposing a 10mn epic challenge.
• A strange encounter with a bunch of pizza loving Gamers that will propose a few goofy missions.
• Looking for the Resistance HQ where the player will meet the rebel leaders and gather a lot of information about the Gamer Resistance
• New spydrones catch races
• Spy interception missions
• Street art missions to hide the way to the HQ and fool the security forces
• The quest for new hidden gamegirls

The sewers are a new playground both for Hover’s players and for the dev team. Expect a lot more content to be added in this area in next updates. All this new content is up and running on Steam, update your game client to enjoy it! Remember the game is currently 25% off. It will be so until the end of the Steam Summer Sales on july 4th.
