Initial release Jun 12, 2020
HopBound is a story-driven psychological horror game that revolves around the surreal mind of Mayumi, a recluse who must journey through an unsettling retro game to come to terms with the ghosts of her past. Through 16-bit horror platformer stages and endless runner levels with gorgeous pixel art, she discovers that her sanity will be tested by something lurking behind the screen.
=====
NOSTALGIC VISUALS
Most of the game's stunning visuals use a palette of only four colors to evoke the retro charm of 90s handheld games.
SPINE-CHILLING AUDIO
Listen to unique ambient music that provide a sense of dream-like dread as you explore the game's sinister levels.
A STANDALONE CONTINUATION
Taking place two years after the events of DERE EVIL EXE, HopBound serves as a continuation of that story. However, users do not need to play DERE EVIL EXE to immerse themselves in HopBound's narrative experience.
HEART-POUNDING MONSTERS
Enemies from previous games are brought back to life and have evolved into new incomprehensible forms.
MULTIPLE GAME MODES
Engage in frenzied platforming in story-rich levels and test your skills in infinite runner levels tailored for people who like competing for high scores on the leaderboard.
MEANINGFUL MACHINATIONS
Going against sequel conventions, HopBound doesn't go bigger and badder for the scale of its story. Instead, the game focuses inward, resulting in a haunting yet meaningful tale.

Breaking the Fourth Wall: the Game Beyond the Game
• There is no game ⎮ @异议あり
● The voice-over will talk with you as a real human, and it feels like you just play with your imaginary friends.
● The game is short and only has 2 outcomes, the full remake version is $4.99.
I will generalize There is no game’s gameplay as interactive drama. It’s not the traditional puzzle-solving game we often talk about. After the game starts, there will be a voice-over talking to you. He would say there’s no game here and you should go watch TV or do something else. Things would be fun if you don’t listen to him. You can break his title or may I say “his home” .
