Overview
Hover! allows players to pilot a hovercraft-bumper car hybrid around three sets of maps: Medieval Castle, Sewers and Futuristic; each with their own unique tilesets.
Gameplay involved a capture the flag scenario against AI opponents or "drones". Around each map there were floating pods containing items to help or hinder the hovercraft's drivers goal. These items include:
| Object | Effect |
|---|---|
| Cloak | Temporarily hides the player from the drones |
| Wall | Puts up a temporary wall used to slow down a drone |
| Jump | Allows the player to look over and jump onto low walls and platforms. |
| Mystery Pod | Unknown Item that is revealed by its corresponding sound effect |
| Shield | Temporarily grants the player invincibility from negative items and map effects |
| Green Light | Temporarily increases the player's speed |
| Red Light | Temporarily decreases the player's speed. |
| Map Eraser | Removes a portion of the discovered map from the player's minimap. The player must return to that area to reveal that portion again. |
