Press release:
Malmö, Sweden –February 11, 2021.
The Sweden-based indie games developer and video game publisher WhyKev are today very excited and pleased to announce that their unconventional platformer “Hoplegs” is coming to PC via Steam in Q2 2021 (a demo is currently available for free via Steam).

In Hoplegs you control a block with 4 legs to move around the level. Each button on your controller (or an assigned key on your keyboard) controls one of the 4 legs.

Hoplegs will ship with 30+ levels on release. With its built-in level editor, players will be able to create new stages with special features and a wide variety of objects, and share them with the community.

Hoplegs contains a local co-op mode for up to 4 players and multiple unlockable items in hidden areas to customize your hat, face, box and legs. You will be able to choose out of 20 legs – and more coming soon.

Features:
– A sweet single player story in a medieval world
– Friendship testing co-op levels
– Build and share custom levels with the Hoplegs Level Editor
– Compete against other players in the Leaderboard
– Local Party Mode for up to 4 players
– Controller, Keyboard and Dance Mat support
– Soundtrack made by Nathan Ross
