We released today a major patch for the Early Access on Steam. It brings many new cool stuff into the game and solves a bunch of minor issues. New Stuff :

• Hideki's Musics are here! As you know, we have the great pleasure to partner with Hideki Naganuma as guest composer for Hover: Revolt of Gamers. As a reminder, Hideki is the composer of Jet Set Radio, Jet Set Radio Future, Sonic Rush, and many more great video game soundtracks. You can listen to Hideki's tracks by going to the Fusty Pub or to the Gamer’s HQ!

• The Trick Score System is back! Tricks don’t give energy anymore, but they increase your score, which in turn will give you more energy at the end of a trick combo. Grinding and sliding will keep giving energy instantly. After a 100 points trick combo, you will generate an Energy Aura, it’s useful to boost your allies, open special containers or for some missions.

• 2 New Mission Types : Trickscore missions and Condenser.
• Two missions added in district A
