Hurry Hat

Catastrophe at the zoo! A hat delivery truck has crashed into the zoo security building, freeing all of the animals and showering the area with hats, big and small.

Game View: 2D sidescrolling

Setup: Hats have fallen all over the zoo, landing on all sorts of animals and obscuring their vision. The animals are running blindly, and it is your job to guide them back into their pens using their specific abilities. Each animal you are given control of will run in a direction until they run into something, at which point they will turn around. There is only one button input and only one action per animal. Each level begins with a short animation of a hat of some kind falling on an animal, the animal freaking out, and then starting to travel in a direction.

Goal: Control an animal’s particular action to help guide it back into its pen.

  • Tiger
    • Run left and right on the ground
    • Swipe at obstacles and other animals in the way to clear a path
  • Sparrow

    • Flap to temporarily increase your altitude
  • Chicken
