Mission Briefing
A one-button space-hopping arcade game about precision, momentum, and an alien dad trying to make it home.
Story
Hank did not set out to be a space hero. He was supposed to make a quick grocery run, pick up snacks, soup cubes, and the sparkling blue juice his kids love, then head straight back home.
Instead, a rogue chunk of space junk clipped his ship and dropped him onto the wrong planet. Hank survived the crash, but now every world between him and the nearest station has to be crossed one platform at a time.
"The good news: I am completely unharmed."
"The better news: I know how to hop, adapt, and survive."
"One planet at a time. One brave hop at a time."
How To Play
On iPhone and iPad, touch and hold anywhere on the screen to charge Hank's jump, then release to launch. On macOS, hold and release Space.
Short holds produce short hops. A full charge takes up to 2 seconds and sends Hank much farther.
A landing can be safe, close, or perfect. Perfect landings happen near the center of the platform and are the key to streak bonuses, extra lives, and several achievements.
Standard platforms are stable. Ice platforms are longer, slippery, and let Hank slide for extra points, but they are much harder to stop on.
The run spans 10 levels. Each level asks for more successful hops than the last, and every completed level awards a score bonus before the next biome begins.
Scoring
1
A standard successful landing gives 1 point.
5
A perfect landing is worth 5 total landing points.
+10
Jump over one platform and still land safely.
+50
Longer skips pay much more, but the landing gets harder.
+100
The biggest jumps can trigger the largest skip bonus.
10 max
Each ice platform can award up to 10 base slide points while Hank keeps gliding.
Finishing a level gives a bonus worth level × 100.
A single run score can stack safe or perfect landings, skip bonuses, ice-slide points, streak rewards, daily bonus effects, Lightning Power boosts, and the level completion bonus.
Multipliers
If a local bonus notification activates the daily window, a separate 2× daily multiplier becomes active for 30 minutes.
When Lightning Power is fully active, landing points are tripled first, before streak or daily multipliers are applied.
The streak multiplier and the daily bonus multiplier can stack together. Lightning Power boosts the landing points before those 2× effects are calculated, creating the biggest score swings in the game.
Notifications
Hopping Hank asks for notification permission so it can tell you when your daily bonus is ready and when your active streak is in danger. These are optional local notifications on your device.
Bonus notifications can be scheduled on eligible days and can fire between 10:00 and 20:00 local time. When delivered, they open a 30-minute "Double Points Ready" bonus window.
If you have an active streak and have not played yet that day, the game can send a reminder at 18:00 local time to help you keep it alive.
You can deny notifications at any time. The game still works normally, but you will not receive reminders about bonus windows or streak risk.
