About Hurling Herman
Hurling Herman is an innovative platformer game set to launch on Steam. While platformers are often considered overdone, we believe there are still untapped mechanics to explore. Hurling Herman offers players complete control over platform spawning, allowing for unique and exciting level exploration during each playthrough.
Will There Be A Demo?
Our plan is to conduct a series of public playtests. Once we are satisfied with the game’s condition, we aim to release a demo by the end of Q4 2025.
Where Is It Set?
Herman is trapped in a cave in while exploring some tunnels underground. You need to help him find his way out!
How Long Has Pre-Production Been?
The game has been in (part time) development for approximately three years, steadily experimenting with new mechanics and features to discover the perfect blend that aligns with games main feature (spawing in platforms).
How Long Will The Game Be?
Our aim is to provide a 2-hour playtime experience. The game includes leaderboards, allowing you to compete against top times on every map, perfect for speedrunning fans! Additionally, the game will offer Steam achievements for added challenges.
How Big Is The Team?
One developer working with freelance artists and musicians. A group of 10-20 people are helping with testing and feedback during closed playtests.
