Description

A brutal game of hummingbirds. Play as hummingbirds thirsty for nectar… and a mate. The first bird to build a nest and perform a successful courting call wins the game. Each species has different abilities that can alter your strategy: Will you bully your way to the top? Bluff your way ahead? Or get clever and sneak in a victory? But watch out! The chatter, competition, and annoying displays from other hummingbirds can easily distract your potential mate from paying attention as you expend precious energy to win their 1,260 bpm heart. Based on real hummingbird behaviors, Hover is a strategic game featuring high-player interaction, tight action economy, asymmetric abilities, bidding/bluffing, and area control to create a highly immersive and intuitive game. Be the hummingbird - beautiful and brutal.
