Hover is a fast-paced sports themed map. Up to 8 players in two teams try score the most goals in
2 x 6 minutes. Each team has up to three field players, who skate on a hoverboard and are fast and mobile, as well as a slower goal keeper with four powerful abilites.
How to Play
There is a tutorial available! Check out the map links below.
Anyone who has played Zealot Hockey before, will feel familiar with the controls quickly. You move by right-clicking. If you move close to the ball, you will pick it up automatically. Pressing space steals the ball from nearby opponents. Lastly, the ball can be thrown by pressing the left mouse button, where the duration the button has been pressed down determines the power of the throw.
Furthermore, every player has four abilities (by default Q,W,E,R). These are explained in the map description or in the tutorial.
Gameplay
The game is rather fast. Furthermore, the 3D movement of the ball (and players) add an interesting new element, which is somewhat tricky to master. Check out the gameplay video below!
I doubt it will get as popular as Zealot Hockey simply because of the fact that Zealot Hockey already exists. Though, I must admit that this looks very nice and overall better. Good luck!
Definitely. I am not seeking to demotivate you - you have done a great job on this - and I am sure that a big fraction of the player base would consider switching map if they knew of it. That's often times the issue though ;)

Yeah, I agree. I would have loved to polish zealot hockey, it has an amazing fan base : /
On the bright side, many people said they'd prefer Hover and it's a lot faster too, so maybe it has it's place.
