The Gorgeous Puzzle-Platformer HOA Releases This Month!

The beautiful puzzle platformer developed by Skrollcat Studio, Hoa, is officially coming to gaming platforms this month and I could not be more excited! The game was initially set to release on August 21st but has instead been delayed only slightly to August 24th.

In addition to that news, the game is also slated to not only release on the Nintendo Switch and PC as planned but now the Xbox and PlayStation console families as well.

Features:

  • Breathtaking hand-painted art - Step into a painting that lives - explore a vast world of meticulously crafted sceneries of stunning hand-painted art.

  • Outstanding original soundtrack - Captivatingly story-telling and emotionally charged, Hoa's exceptional score, originally composed and live-recorded brings its world to life with a touch of nostalgia.

  • Lovely creatures - Keep an eye out for delightful magical creatures along the way. Most of them want to be friends, some might even tell you a little story or two. Cuteness guaranteed.

  • Gentle, yet compelling flow - Navigate with a keen eye and solve exploration-based puzzles. Relax to the organic rhythm of subtle storytelling while being intrigued by endless little wonders. Be a child - it's easier and harder than it may seem.

This Studio Ghibli-Esque-looking title has really piqued my interest over the past few months and I’m eager to see how it all comes together at launch.

Hoa releases on August 24th for PC (Steam), Nintendo Switch, Xbox Series X|S, Xbox One, PlayStation 5, and PlayStation 4.
