For those who remember the vibrant aesthetics of early 2000s gaming, the announcement of Hyperfunk is likely to evoke a sense of nostalgia. This latest creation from Team Reptile, the minds behind Bomb Rush Cyberfunk, promises to elevate the genre of stunt-centric Y2K futurism to new heights. The developers describe Hyperfunk as “2 seconds per second of evolved funkstyle,” suggesting a significant enhancement in gameplay dynamics and visual flair.
Game Features and Aesthetic
Hyperfunk is characterized as “an extreme trick and graffiti game from a bright future,” where players can engage in battles that blend style with ideological expressions of this new world. The teaser hints at a gameplay experience that allows players to achieve extraordinary combos, resulting in visually stunning effects, such as a skull erupting in a pillar of transcendental light, transforming the surrounding environment into a kaleidoscope of colors.
Unlike its predecessor, Bomb Rush Cyberfunk, which relied on modders for multiplayer functionality, Hyperfunk will incorporate a built-in online multiplayer mode. Players will have the opportunity to connect with random users in the expansive “Hyper” metaverse or enjoy casual interactions with friends as they navigate the vibrant streets of this futuristic setting.
While a release date has not yet been announced, interested gamers can already add Hyperfunk to their Steam wishlists, eagerly anticipating the chance to dive into this exhilarating new world.
