Hop Hop

Hop-Hop is an endless jumping game aimed squarely at younger players — the developers put it at ages three and up, and the design follows through on that. Controls are a single tap with no reading required, so a child can start without help. You jump forward and steer left or right to collect shiny coins and stay above lava that keeps rising underneath you. The pace increases the longer you last, which is what turns a simple loop into something with tension in it. Coins go toward unlocking a collection of cute kawaii animal skins, giving a reason to keep going beyond the score itself. Colourful, quick to learn and genuinely built for its audience.
