What is HyperRouter??
HyperRouter is a game that combines my love of early-internet aesthetics, heavy first-person platforming, and quirky little micro-worlds. It's an exploration game that imagines the internet of the early 2000s as a physical place, and lets you run around and meet its citizens.
This is a side-project I started early in 2025, originally as a testing ground for all my weird, self-indulgent graphics experiments, but it's since evolved into its own little world. HyperRouter is warm, nostalgic, but also surreal and frightening - I think it's something really unique.
When is HyperRouter??
I'm currently aiming for a release early in 2026. This is going to be one of those short-but-sweet games, and I think everything that makes it really special is already there. That said, I am a small person with big ideas, so things are liable to change! (Hopefully not though!!!)
Anyway, that's all for now! Expect to hear more soon. I'm so excited to share this game with the world!
