Dragon Hop

Another Only Up Clone with flipped assets all over

龙版only up，扮演一只小龙不断向上爬，非常有趣

I bought this game for fun because I don't really know what to play these days, and I've actually had a ton of fun with this. It's something to pass the time, but be aware 748 M in, your dragon goes through a serious acid trip and starts moving the opposite way xD.

a very good game for fun i love the cute dragon

Fantasztikus! A kissárkánnyal nagyon jó kalandozni az egzotikus tájakon, veszélyek között, nagy magaslatokon. Találtam egy barlangot, abban egy vulkánt, ami aztán kilőtt magasra, az egekbe. Aztán egy labirintust, tele titokkal, no meg kincsekkel. Az jó, hogy ha leesel, nem kell visszamenni a tengerszintre, mert ott a varázslatos B gomb!

This is a super fun and cute platformer game with a lot of challenging platforming. I had a lot of fun playing it but I do also have to mention that I will not be playing it for a while due to a few issues I have with the gameplay that I feel need to be implemented/cleaned up further for a good experience. Going to write my issues down below, this doesn't mean I don't recommend the game, but there are a lot of things to be vary of when going into this I feel. Things that I personally feel need to be updated/fixed before I can fully enjoy and commit to playing the game: - Player character floaty-ness: Currently your Player character is very floaty. Meaning the movements feel a little bit all over the place and makes it hard to telegraph the movements of your dragon. This ends up making it quite difficult to accurately predict and plan your jumps and movement. When on the ground and landing from a jump, it's almost like you're on ice. I noticed multiple times that my character moved despite standing still. This is my biggest issue with the gameplay of this game. The core mechanic needs to be a lot snappier and easier to telegraph before I could sink many hours into this game. I ended up with several unfair falls due to this and it in the end frustrated me enough to stop playing. - Would highly recommend also implementing some kind of shadow under the character so it's easy to see exactly where you will land. Most platformer or platformer adjecent games have this for that very reason. This would also significantly help with the issues mentioned above as well. - The wall grab mechanic: This one has faked me out so many times. I'll be thinking I'm falling when grabbing ledges and fall when I think I should be grabbing them. This definitely needs some cleaning up to be more accurate and trigger faster? It seems a little slow and triggers a bit all over the place. - The guide dragon: The text box for the dragon guiding us seems to have too large of a trigger area. I've triggered multiple text boxes for him while being in a separate area, or below/above at a great enough distance the text didn't make sense or was hard to make sense of OR triggered after I had seen said tip already causing unnecessary distractions. Definitely could do with a tighter area to trigger and only trigger once. - Starting a new game: This part ended up kind of confusing. You could chuck it up to user error, but personally I feel a customisation feature needs to be separate from the starting a new game screen. I was very confused why I could not start a game for a loooong time before realising I had tried to customise with something I couldn't afford yet. - UI start menu and surrounding UI: This is kind of a big one to me. It is so difficult to tell where I'm selecting while in the main or start menu. The difference in shade is not enough to easily determine which box is actually selected. I recommend making this difference even clearer. Either making your selection highlighted more than the other selections, or having something around the selection that easily reads as selected. - I do understand this is like a love letter to the Spyro games in the sense that it has a dragon and platformer. I would probably recommend more original animations? They feel very similar. While this isn't something it needs at all I do feel it would be better to eventually distinguish yourselves more from Spyro with unique takes on the animations. I understand one can only do so much different and it's not something that makes it unplayable by any means. None of these issues are game breaking, so I still recommend the game BUT personally I need a lot of updates to the core mechanics to continue playing. Positives: - The teleportation is a great mechanic and saved my butt many times. - It's a fun and unique take on a platformer, requiring a lot of skill over just brute forcing your way. even though I did feel I had to do that too at times due to the floatyness It has amazing potential and I hope to come back to this game after it has some more updates!

After having just finished the game, I can pretty confidently say that I enjoyed it. The environments are really fun and unique, the sense of progression is super satisfying, and the freedom of exploration adds a lot to the experience and adds a significant amount of replay value with the different routes and collectibles (if you're a masochist). That being said, the game is far from perfect. There is a significant amount of jank with the physics and the movement isn't quite as smooth as I'd want it to be, especially for the level of precision required for most of the game. I had several occasions where I lost a large chunk of progress to clipping through the ground or a wall or through weird physics/collision glitches. I personally didn't mind, but the game does largely consist of random free assets so visual cohesion is sometimes a little messy. In addition, the lack of an ending cutscene is a little disappointing considering the amount of effort needed to get there haha. All that being said though, this is an indie game mostly made by one person so I'm able to look past most of these issues and enjoy the game for what it is, a cute, fun, and challenging platformer about exploring a bunch of different worlds and hopping around as a little dragon. It seems like the dev is working on ironing out issues with the game so it's possible a lot of my issues will be addressed eventually. Thanks to the dev for making the game and I hope they continue making games in the future!

いわゆる高難易度クライミング系のゲームです。 ちびドラゴンを操作して、ひたすら上を目指します。 2時間かかって950mまで到達しましたが、まだ全体の10％程度でかなりボリュームがあります。 　※13時間半でクリアしました！！ 日本語のサポートはまだありません。 対応を望みますが、英文でもなんとなく雰囲気で理解できるかと思います。 ゲーム自体の動作は安定していて、バグらしいものにはまだ遭遇していません、快適です。 古き良きタイプの魔法世界や、ダンジョンを冒険しているワクワク感が満載です！ストレスはほぼありません！ ゲームシステムに煽られることもなく、相棒枠のちび羽ドラゴンが落下時に語る内容も「めっちゃ落ちちゃったー！」みたいな台詞で無邪気に楽しんでおり、こちらも落下を楽しめています。 操作するちびドラには身体の長さからくる絶妙な慣性や動作のクセがあり、それが難易度を高めています。 しかし、だんだん身体がドラゴンになった時の気分を体感できる良い要素に思えてきました。 -------------- 以降は日本語の方向けにアイテム紹介を。 黄色い羽：消費型チェックポイントアイテム。見つけたら絶対拾う。 緑の結晶：滑空能力の解放に10個必要 青の結晶：飛行能力の解放に10個必要 赤の結晶：火球能力の解放に10個必要 薄い水色のコイン：見た目を変える通貨です ※能力の解放にはどこかにいる案内役のドラゴンに話しかける必要があります。自分は930m付近で出会えました。 ※飛行能力は限定的で、青の結晶で再チャージしないと再び使用できないので注意を！ 5/20 ：一部追記

A delightful little game with challenging (but rewarding) platforming and exploration. If you like dragons then you should give this game a playthrough! A treat from start to finish

可愛い、可愛さでストレス低め なんなら一定数のプレイヤーには 竜になるだけで意味があると思うので おすすめ…日本語がない…？ やるんだ…竜の子となり上を目指せ！ ちなみにiTunesではOSTが出ているぞ！
