The electronic soundtrack fits the fast pace extremely well, reinforcing the feeling that every attempt is a race against your own reaction time.

16 of 125 sampled reviews raised it
The controls are intuitive but unforgiving: the player flicks the right stick to determine direction and uses a trigger to adjust speed and jumps.
Graphics
Players who bring up Graphics mostly praise it.
15 of 125 sampled reviews raised it
Add with that the charming visuals and well done chiptune soundtrack, and HoPiKo is a great little title no twitch and skill based game fan should ignore.
