Hover is like Jet Grind Radio without the best part, which is the skateboards, of course. It is plainly Jet Grind Radio Frenchified with the urban sport of parkour. But we should probably give them the benefit of the doubt for replacing the famed four-wheeled decks with a grind-rail riding pair of feet because the cartoonish, purple and black city traced with pink electricity scintillating from your sneakers simply looks to die for. Another reason why traceurs trump skaters in this case is because they can pull off flips and long jumps you could never dream of justifying on a half pipe.
The Kickstarter is just getting warmed up and already the goal is in sight, which goes to show that people really loved their Dreamcast.
