Hayfever

Pixadome and Zordix have announced that Hayfever will be released on February 25th in Europe and North America for $14.99.

Here’s the latest trailer for the game, along with some more details and the list of key features:

Hayfever is a frantic 2D platformer with tongue-in-cheek and nose continually running. Postman Thomas is dashing from doorstep to doorstep across 140 dangerous levels, delivering packages and recovering 240 lost letters (scattered to the winds after a sneezing fit) from unlikely locations. Thomas’ allergies may have gotten him into this mess, but they can get him out of it, too. Pollen allows him to sneeze hard enough to fly, and other allergens provide powers to help him navigate four worlds of challenging seasonal hazards. It’s not just nature trying to stop the mail either. Busy bees, mischievous scarecrows, troublesome snowmen and four tough end-of-season bosses stand between Thomas and a job well done.

Cute on the outside but with a hard, challenging core, Hayfever’s levels are designed to be replayed and mastered. Just getting to the end of Hayfever’s four seasons of levels is tough, but collecting every last lost letter on the way will require a true postmaster. Diligent deliverers might even find something new waiting on the other side of a full mailbag. The mail should never be late, though; Hayfever is built for speed – the best players will barely have time to touch the ground.

• fast-paced, challenging platformer with cute and squishy pixel-art.
• Who needs double-jumping? Touch pollen to sneeze through the air.
• Gain other strange new powers from smog, peanuts and other allergens.
• 140 levels spread across four seasons, and 240 optional collectibles to track down.
• Designed for speed. Master its challenging movement and fly through the levels.
• A toe-tapping, whimsical soundtrack by Knasibas.

Hayfever (Switch – eShop) comes out on February 25th in Europe and North America. The Upcoming Games page has been updated!
