A Hat in Time

EDIT: Completed the game with 67%, working towards a higher % now, though I don't know if I'll reach 100 or not. Yes. This is a very enjoyable platformer, while it does start out a little 'too easy' it does ramp up. My best description for this game is "Someone really wanted to make 'Super Mario 64 - 2', back lacking the licence stuck it in the most colorful of childrens cartoon worlds." The controls are solid, the hats are fun, there's quite a lot of collectables and badge-power-ups you can buy. I havn't 100%'ed the game yet, no, but I have reached the final world (which currently only shows a boss fight, and required I have certain hats to access), in about 8 hours while I was doing a lot of side content. There's also only one hat I don't currently own, that I'm lovingly calling "ZA WARUDO!" until I can get it. ;P If you like 3D platforming games like Super Mario 64 or Banjo-Kazooie, you will enjoy this game. I'm honestly surprised at how much fun I'm having with it. The soundtracks are great, the bosses can be quite tough at times, but the game is playable, possible, and above all FUN. +Music +Bosses +Tight Mechanics +Perfect Controller Support +If you prefer harder games, there is a way +Fun Platforming +I can unironically say "This is a better Super Mario 64 Sequel than Super Mario Sunshine" even though it's an unrelated indie game (fan game I'd say, there's too many connections to SM64... mansion is a space ship, coins are gems, stars are hourglasses, paintings are telescopes, etc etc...) +/- Platformer +/- Lack of combat outside of bosses +/- Bosses can be far more challenging than their leading up levels +/- LOADS of collectables that *do* effect gameplay -Rather short (~8 hours) -Only 5 worlds (6 if you count 'The Moon' bonus levels) -"Effects" aren't as optimized as the other options (but my processor is outdates, just be sure to check your sysreqs) -Shopkeeper is inconsistant -(?) No map badges for finding yarn, coins, or any collectables other than "Artifacts" -has a "weapon" tab in the menu, but only has one weapon that cannot be changed or accessed -sometimes wall running activates when you don't want it to -due to the games color scheme and soft shadows, landing on wires can be a pain with no clear indicator of where you're falling, I'm good at games and I usually over/under shoot them -my BIGGEST complaint: The Camera can be VERY finicky at times Foot note: I'd rate this the old "K-A 7+", some bosses are too hard, some levels quite terrifying (Luigi's Mansion meets Amnesia Dark Descent), and there's one level (on a movie set) with quite a bit of 'blood' on display, for kids 6 and under. But in a world where game ratings are rarely accurate, I felt I should put my two cents in on this one. If it were a movie, it would be "Toy Story 3" brand of "PG".

The Mac OS X port does not work for me.

Allround charmig and great platformer, definitely worth the money

The steam version gives modding tools and access to a great number of mods from the steam workshop. The gog version does not. It doesn't even provide the modding tools. It is a inferior version, go buy the product on steam instead if you want access to these.

A hat in time is a wonderful game. Everything mario fans wish they could get more of. I absoutletly adore the game and have 100% it a few times on my own. Theres only one thing I wish I could get out of it now and that is being able to play it on PC for free. Let me explain. Ive played A hat in time on my XBOX and now ive wanted to Record and make videos on it. However even though it is in my library on GOG GALAXY I cannot install it here. This is very sad :(
