Best Short Game Ever

I finished it in about an hour and a half, and I enjoyed every minute of the journey. From the music to the cute dialogue and characters, the whole game provides a relaxing, wholesome package. It's very kid-friendly and everything about it feels just right. I'm normally one of those "if I spend a dollar, I expect half an hour of entertainment" type of guys, but I've got no problem making an exception for this little game. I actually got it free on the Epic Store, and decided to buy it here to support the creator. If you just want a little chill time and appreciate soaking in the view, A Short Hike'll be a treat for ya.

If collective nostalgia were a game...

This game hits hard to your nostalgia...modernized in some aspects of control sensitivity, camera, display settings, etc, but it is the dialogue, music, sfx, menu sounds, just the right amount of dialogue, funny writing of the conversations, goals and activities hit perfect...I haven't had anything make me remind me of childhood this much before... Running around in this games is like dancing through a dream of your memories of a better world in your own past, you were there once...just once...but maybe you can go back for a bit and chill...

A rare gem

I've often found myself thinking, "This game has such a beautiful world, I wish it didn't have combat." A Short Hike is what I've been wishing for. The controls are a bit odd-I'd recommend using a controller-and you can only move the camera a little. All the same, flying feels great! I'm *very* pleased with this game, and the fact that it runs natively on Ubuntu is quite welcome. Now if you'll excuse me, I'm off on a short. hike.

Delightful children's RPG

You take up the role of Claire, an infant - teen! - hawk who's going on a leisure trip with her dad for a few days. As a typical teenager, Claire brings along her cell phone but in this remote resort there's no reception... oh. Her aunt May is a ranger at Hawk Peak Park and so Claire begins her impromptu quest in this little paradise of mountain, lake, forest, treasure, friends, adventure... to get that cell phone dinging, uh! Graphics and animations are simple yet polished, and full of flair. There's a slider to adjust the level of pixelation, from "blocky" all the way to "seamless." Sound effects are also trimmed down yet on point to your character's actions and achievements, and by "achievements' I mean finding special items that progress your moving, running, gliding, jumping and climbing, as well as learning to fish, dig for treasure, cracking rocks and sealed passages, and piloting a motorboat, among other fun perks. All these tasks function in a theme-park sort of way - they flesh out gameplay with exploration and collection. Music is also pleasant and thematically designed to reflect on your location in the Park and stage in the hike. The writing and dialogues are especially good, upbeat, quippy, and sure to make you laugh and feel good about playing this sweet little gem of a game. It's more than relaxing - it's therapeutic. It's always on a positive tone which makes this game perfect for children to follow the lighthearted journey of this wacky, golden birdy. On a more subtle note, the hike serves as a soft metaphor for the process of coming of age and maturing your mind and character before the quirks of society and life. Claire gets to meet a number of "people" in her wanderings: a stressing bunny, a racing turtle, a sun-loving frog, and many more. The whole plot and ambience seems to have been carefully put together like such a flavorful children's book that even adults enjoy reading and playing around with. Gameplay is interesting, engaging and as complex as it can be while being still simple enough for a child to pick up. The game even gives you the option to remap your keybindings, something that many bigger and more complex games don't do. Your main storyline so to speak is to follow the main trail and reach the top of the peak, which can be done in different ways over different timeframes... and which bookends your starting plot upon completion in a very endearing way. All in all a very cute game and a memorable experience for gamers of all ages and inclinations. Personally I'd love for the author(s) to make a sequel or even a series, would definitely support on Kickstarter or however.
