Critic Reviews for Hop 'n' Marty
If you can’t get enough of the 3D platformer/collect-a-thon subset of games, Hop ‘n’ Marty is undoubtedly going to be more of what you love. It’s a great time, albeit done quicker than you might hope. For a studio as small and young as Evilkookey Games, though, it’s quite an achievement.
It feels heartbreaking to give Hop ‘n’ Marty such a low score because I actually had a bit of fun with it. There are worse ways to spend a couple of hours on your Switch. But I just cannot ignore how unpolished and janky this commercial product is. It’s definitely not a looker (hell, it’s the opposite of it), and its controls are simply not good enough. Maybe it was its obvious lack of a budget, or a tight deadline – who knows. All I know is that I cannot simply praise it for its good intentions and ignore its blatant flaws.
Hop ‘n’ Marty is an entertaining retro 3D platformer with around four hours of jumping and collecting fun. The platforming is forgiving without being completely devoid of challenge. The Collectathlon is packed with references without getting lost in them. The camera was a bit stubborn, and diving wasn’t much fun for me, but on the second playthrough I simply skipped the most tedious underwater mission. (Sorry, little monkey!) With Hop ‘n’ Marty, developer Evilkookey Games has created a very charming title.
