Team Reptile Announces HYPERFUNK: Extreme Tricks and Graffiti in a New Game
Okay, so Team Reptile, the masterminds behind Bomb Rush Cyberfunk, just dropped a surprise on us: a new game called HYPERFUNK! From what I gather, it's another dive into a vibrant, trick-filled world, but with its own unique flavor. Think extreme sports meets graffiti art in a futuristic setting. I'm already hyped!
What's the Deal with HYPERFUNK?
The core idea is that you're part of a graffiti crew battling for dominance in a world shaped by the "Hyper," some kind of online space that influences reality. You'll be skating, BMX-ing, and doing all sorts of crazy tricks to fuel your boostpack and reach insane speeds. It sounds like the faster you go, the more intense the action gets. I can already imagine the combo possibilities!
But it isn't just about pulling off sick tricks. You can challenge other crews, which leads to dynamic style wars. The goal? To prove who owns the streets, and strategically use different graffiti styles to defeat your opponents. It's all about the tags, throwies, pieces, and blockbusters. It's like a digital turf war!
Beyond battling, you can explore the city to grow your crew, discover fresh music, and unlock new moves. And you can meet random players online in the Hyper or chill with your friends. It sounds like it's trying to capture that cool sense of community.
I don't have a release date for HYPERFUNK yet, but I know it's coming to PC via Steam and "unspecified consoles". I'm definitely looking forward to hearing more about it!
