Presented by Humble Bundle Showcases Cute-as-Heck 3D Platformer A HAT IN TIME

A Hat in Time is a cute-as-heck 3D collect-a-thon platformer developed by Gears for Breakfast that holds the honor of being one of the largest Kickstarter-funded indie 3D platformers, reaching almost 1000% of its original Kickstarter goal! This charming adventure channels the spirit of beloved genre-based games such as Super Mario 64Banjo-Kazooie and Psychonauts. Shoot, Grant Kirkhope, the composer for Banjo-Kazooie, is even on board as a composer for A Hat in Time! Yippee!

As Hat Kid, a little girl with a lot of heart and a powerful punch, travel through five incredibly diverse and giant open worlds, smack around baddies and unlock sweet new hats with all-new abilities. Enjoy your trip through space and time, and protect the world from the evil Mustache Girl!
