About Hot Dog Reporter
Hello!
Hot Dog Reporter is a (very early access) game about a hot dog in a hurry.
It's a fast paced platformer with a speedrun mode that will eventually turn into a metroidvania with a mystery to solve and charmingly weird characters to meet (and a speedrun mode). Once the linear levels are iterated on enough to finalize Hot Dog Reporter's mechanics, gameplay will begin to spill onto the sprawling, interconnected streets of New Yorkshire City. I already have a pretty firm grasp of the final narrative shape and visual direction, and I can't wait to share what's inside my head (and also inside like 500 word documents and photoshop files). Thank you, from the bottom of my heart, for checking out Hot Dog Reporter.
Current features include:
- Obsessively tuned movement mechanics influenced by some of my favorite platformers, including Celeste, Super Meat Boy, and Mega Man X.
- An in game timer that tracks your fastest runs for each level, as well as a sum of best for your overall time.
- Speedrun Mode, a non-stop race through every level in the game that tracks your fastest time.
- Twelve levels exploring all the best ways to have fun with a fast moving hot dog.
- A leaderboard to rank the best Speed Doggers on the planet.
- Alternate hot dog skins
- A killer bebop soundtrack to GET YOU MOVING!
- New abilities to expand your repertoire and go EVEN FASTER.
- Fresh levels with new mechanics to explore.
- Artwork for more diverse levels and biomes.
- Additional accessibility options.
- A lovingly crafted story filled with memorable characters. Take Frankie Merguez through the streets, factories, nightlife, and dark underbelly of the city to get to the bottom of the mysterious disappearances haunting New Yorkshire City.
- An expansive, interconnected map with fast travel.
- Ability acquisition, allowing you to reach previously inaccessible areas and more quickly traverse the places you've already been.
- More unlockable costumes for Frankie.
- CUTE CATS!
HEADS UP: Hot Dog Reporter is currently in very early access and will have frequent save wipes and leaderboard wipes as levels get added and updated.

I LOVE THIS GAME ITS ACTUALLY SO FIRE W PLATFORMING W GAMEPLAY I LOVE IT
worth a try
It's a cute game but unless you're here to speedrun the game and make repeated attempts, there's not much else to experience. But if you *are* here to try to speedrun then you'll probably have a great time.
Do you like platforming and/or speedrunning? Boom.
Hot Dog Reporter, developed by Exquisite Trash Club, is an absolute gem that will captivate you with its addictive gameplay. From the moment you start playing, it's hard to put down - that classic "one more try" feeling keeps you hooked for hours on end. The first thing that stands out about Hot Dog Reporter for me is its impeccable score. The music perfectly complements the fast-paced tube meat navigating, immersing you in the game's quirky world. It's clear that the developers put a lot of effort into creating an atmospheric experience that enhances the gameplay. Speaking of gameplay, the mechanics in Hot Dog Reporter are incredibly smooth. The controls are responsive and intuitive, allowing you to navigate the game with ease. It's evident that the developers have obsessively fine-tuned the mechanics to deliver an enjoyable and seamless experience. One aspect that truly sets Hot Dog Reporter apart is the developer's commitment to the community. They actively listen to player feedback and release updates frequently, ensuring that the game keeps getting better and better. This level of engagement with the community is commendable and showcases the dedication behind this project.…
