A very fun and nuanced platforming game that I would best describe as a fusion of Dustforce's learning curve and platforming with the concept of HackyZack. Do not be dissuaded by its simplistic art style, as it helps to navigate the rather unforgiving lands of this game. The challenges offered by the game and its achievements make it all the more satisfying to complete, but there is also an assist mode for those wishing for ease of access. "Hack or Die!" definitely deserves more attention than it currently receives. Strong recommend in my book.5 found this helpful
Great juggling platformer The ball juggling mechanics are easy to learn but take some time to master. Luckily the stages are designed and laid out in a way that allows you to get used to the movement as you go. The game is decently short but there are extra things to do in each stage and some bonus levels. Well worth the price2 found this helpful
Such a great game! (5/5) I was a playtester for Hack or Die and my favourite moments playing this game come when I'm making huge saves in absolute desperation to keep the ball in the air. Controls are perfect, tight and responsive. The boss fights are also definite highlights for me, they are like no other game I've played since the only way to attack is with the ball itself! Loads of levels, bonus stages, and optional objectives to play through. Assist mode options are excellent and easy to use, and the soundtrack is another 5 out of 5!1 found this helpful
Fantastic game with a staggering amount of movement tech! Highly recommend1 found this helpful
Sick game, tons of levels and good variations. Only thing missing is the option to view controls during the game and not at the main menu and would be awesome to have a boss fight mode where you can just play the bosses in a gauntlet style.1 found this helpful
The game is good and the idea fresh and new it controls well and has a nice art style the only problem is the bosses while easy on paper (good to note i haven't gone far i think only the end of the 4th world) are hard in execution you avoid boss attack it hits wall then hit rinse repeat the problem is the ball it will often loss momentum and be slow the only way to make it faster is sprinting and hitting it be doing that puts the ball in danger making the boss 2-3 times longer than the actual level other then that fantastic game
