comment |
For xkcd #1608, author Randall Munroe decided to do something a little different. Titled Hoverboard, readers are presented with someone on a hoverboard in a maze filled with coins. Words under them state that in celebration of Randall Munroe's book Thing Explainer getting a release, he decided to celebrate with a small game.The objective of the game is to ride around the maze on a hoverboard and collect all the coins, then deposit them. The game grades you on how many coins you found and how fast you did it. But is that really all there is to it?You can find it here. |

comment |
The Cameo: A couple of characters make cameo appearances. Beret Guy is riding one of the torpedoes. The cast of Steven Universe stand around in one room in the ship firing the torpedoes. They appear to be standing on a Warp Pad. |

Floating Platforms |

comment |
Floating Platforms: Present throughout. Special mention goes to a platform that's clearly a piece of the ground having separated and started floating upwards, which otherwise serves no purpose. |

| xkcd Hoverboard (Video Game) / int_40bb59d0 |
comment |
Blatant Lies: This is a "small game". If you collect all of the coins in the area initially visible, which has walls further out on both sides and tells you not to “leave the game area” if you go too far up, it tells you that you've collected all of the coins. At that point, you haven't even come close... |

comment |
Minimalist Run: invoked If you manage to make it to where you can deposit coins without a single one, the game assumes you did this and says "You've successfully avoided all the coins!" |
