Just over a month ago, developer Oddrok released Power Hover: Cruise [Free], a more arcadey, endless high-scoring version of their highly underrated level-based 2015 game Power Hover [$4.99]. Upon launch Power Hover: Cruise offered up four different environments to play through, each with their own unique hazards and features, as well as an extensive cast of playable characters to unlock. Today in our forums, Oddrok has detailed the first big content update for Power Hover: Cruise, which will include three new playable characters and a new environment.
The new characters are: BatBot, a bat-like flying robot; Helibot, a helicopter and also apparently a hint towards Oddrok's next game(!); and Spacebot, a "Cool Astronaut, with quick manouvers and lots of hitpoints!" The new environment is called Metro and is a foggy level featuring spinning discs of death and deadly moving spikes. You can see all of this in action in the following new trailer.

In case it wasn't apparent, I'm a massive fan of the original Power Hover. Oddrok uses a really interesting set of physics for their hoverboarding, which can be much trickier to come to grips with compared to similar games but once you do it makes for an incredibly engaging and skill-based experience. Power Hover: Cruise takes all that and puts it into a breezier arcade experience that works great in quick bursts on mobile.
Both games are highly recommended but if you haven't...
