A Hat in Time is a 2017 platform game developed by Danish game studio Gears for Breakfast and published by Humble Bundle. The game was developed using Unreal Engine 3 and funded through a Kickstarter campaign, which nearly doubled its fundraising goals within its first two days. The game was self-published for macOS and Windows in October 2017, and by Humble Bundle for the PlayStation 4 and Xbox One consoles two months later. A version for the Nintendo Switch was released in October 2019.

Runs well on modern hardware.

An amazing platforming game with a wonderful soundtrack. Reminds me a lot of Super Mario Galaxy. It's just the right mix between fun and challenging with lots to offer and collect. The story is pretty simple, you play as Hat Kid and your goal is to collect enough time pieces to go back home. Although the game's setting is might be goofy overall, it does get serious and even scary at times. The optional rifts also have lots of touching stories and are really worth going after. The first two DLCs are a must-have, adding lots of stories and extra content to explore: Seal the deal offers an entire chapter and the deathwish challenges. Personally, I wasn't a fan of these challenges as I found them to be quite tedious and not very fun, but they are there if you wish to make the game a lot harder. Nyakuza Metro adds a big chapter to explore, as well as a new party system with lovely stickers that come with unique voicelines. And on top of all that, the workshop has a lot of levels and customization options, such as dyes and outfits, to choose from. Highly recommended! One of my favorite games of all time. 💜
one of the best 3d platformers out there. good story, good workshops, I love the DLCs, fell in love with the characters, gameplay is always fun, literally what other reason would not convince you not to get the game if you're into platformer games
The best collect-a-thon game, hands down. I want a sequel so bad...
