Quick Links

Navigating Hyper Light Breaker's sprawling, Synthwave Overgrowth can be challenging. Fortunately, you have access to a Hoverboard from the outset, significantly enhancing traversal. This guide details its use and unique features. The Hoverboard acts as a sprint function, boosting speed while gradually depleting your Energy.

How To Summon A Hoverboard in Hyper Light Breaker

Summoning the Hoverboard is simple: hold down the Dodge button. Your character will dash, then automatically mount the Hoverboard as long as you maintain the Dodge input.

Hoverboard control is intuitive. The left analog stick controls direction; leaning increases with speed, making slower turns more precise. Release the Dodge button to dismount. The Hoverboard will also automatically deactivate if your Energy runs out.

Your Energy level is displayed beside your companion. Discontinue use briefly to replenish Energy and avoid unexpected dismounts.

Hoverboard Movement Techniques & Applications

While the Hoverboard lacks trick or attack functions, its unique properties are invaluable. Notably, it floats on water, eliminating water obstacles. Its land and water performance is identical; simply maintain Hoverboard activation upon water entry.

While riding, holding the Jump button allows for a controlled descent before jumping. While double-jumping isn't possible, the increased speed extends jump range, bridging larger gaps. This controlled descent doesn't enhance speed or jump height, but aids precise jump timing.
