Hover (2013)

Hover is a HTML5/WebGL remake of 1995 PC game Hover! with modern graphics, three selectable hovercrafts, and multiplayer mode. The game also contains an Easter egg that allows you to play Level 1 of the original game by typing "bambi" at the main menu.

Unused Graphics
The Easter egg activated by the "bambi" cheat (internally referred to as "Retro" mode) contains several unused graphics.

Level Complete


This winning screen doesn't appear as there is only one level in Retro mode.

FUNSTUFF


Folder view for "FUNSTUFF", which would have been placed on the desktop. This was the name of the folder on the original Windows 95 CD that contained Hover!, as well as some bonus videos. In the final game, the icon is nothing more than a hyperlink to Microsoft's SkyDrive.





Two AVI video file icons that would have been placed in the "FUNSTUFF" folder. On the original Windows 95 CD, these files contained music videos of Edie Brickell's "Good Times" and Weezer's "Buddy Holly", respectively.

Desktop
The following icons have white filenames, so they were most likely intended for the desktop. A readme file with no file extension. What it contained is anyone's guess.

Internet Explorer with pre-IE4 icon. Since the game was created to promote Internet Explorer, this likely would have linked to the official IE website.
