Chapeau (French for “hat”) is a fast-paced multiplayer platformer, where you play a quirky hat! Challenge your friends or team up together for different objectives while engaging in mid-air combat. Salt Castle Studio is the independent game development studio behind this wacky game and they are based in Salzburg, Austria. Customize not only the color of your hat but the type of hat as well (i.e. knight hat, jester hat)! Also, we here at myPotatoGames find it quite funny that you must try to land on people’s heads!
About Chapeau
In Chapeau, you will have to try your best to stay ahead while fluidly jumping, gliding and dashing through beautifully crafted levels, inspired by Austria’s historic city centres. Keep your momentum going to move faster, snatch any objectives away from your competition, and avoid falling to the ground by using the environment and roaming people to your advantage!
Key Features
- Multiplayer: Gather your friends on your couch and compete in action packed multiplayer sessions. Test your skills in a variety of different game modes and jump your way up to victory.
- Hats, hats, hats: Some hats require different playstyles. Unlock and collect a number of different hats, all with their own looks and personality.
- Fast-paced movement: Easy to learn, hard to master. Allowing you to develop that certain competitive edge while keeping it beginner friendly for those multiplayer sessions with your friends.
- Dynamic Environment: Watch your step, the environment is unpredictable. React quickly and use it to your advantage or use it against other players.
On Chapeau’s official website they state “Alpha Coming Soon” so we’re keeping a close eye on this game. The creators have confirmed with us that the Alpha will be playable on Steam.
