Steam Store description

Hello! Hot Dog Reporter is a (very early access) game about a hot dog in a hurry. It's a fast paced platformer with a speedrun mode that will eventually turn into a metroidvania with a mystery to solve and charmingly weird characters to meet (and a speedrun mode). Once the linear levels are iterated on enough to finalize Hot Dog Reporter's mechanics, gameplay will begin to spill onto the sprawling, interconnected streets of New Yorkshire City. I already have a pretty firm grasp of the final narrative shape and visual direction, and I can't wait to share what's inside my head (and also inside like 500 word documents and photoshop files). Thank you, from the bottom of my heart, for checking out Hot Dog Reporter. Current features include: Obsessively tuned movement mechanics influenced by some of my favorite platformers, including Celeste, Super Meat Boy, and Mega Man X. An in game timer that tracks your fastest runs for each level, as well as a sum of best for your overall time. Speedrun Mode, a non-stop race through every level in the game that tracks your fastest time. Twelve levels exploring all the best ways to have fun with a fast moving hot dog. A leaderboard to rank the best Speed Doggers on the planet. Alternate hot dog skins A killer bebop soundtrack to GET YOU MOVING! We're currently working on: New abilities to expand your repertoire and go EVEN FASTER. Fresh levels with new mechanics to explore. Artwork for more diverse levels and biomes. Additional accessibility options. Longer term plans: A lovingly crafted story filled with memorable character…
