Very few game series manage to become an influence for games that come after them without receiving proper sequels. The Jet Set Radio series by SEGA is among them, an incredibly stylish series which has yet to receive a proper, next-gen sequel. Hover, by Midgar Studio and Fusty Game, tries hard to be the true jet Set Radio game of the generation but it sadly fails short to do so due to several issues.

Hover is set on ECP17, a city on a far away, unspecified planet that’s also known as Hover City. The Great Admin cut off the communication with the Galactic Union, establishing a dictatorship and making all forms of entertainment illegal. While most of the city obeys its ruler, a few of them decided to rebel, to bring back the fun to Hover City and end the despotic rule of The Great Admin. The rebels, known as Gamers, use their high-tech suits and gear to sabotage the dictator’s propaganda, reach the Orbital Station and let the Galactic Union know what is happening in the city.
