Needs a desktop browser with WebGPU or WebGL2. Keyboard + mouse.
What you can do
- The full platformer moveset: triple jump, long jump, backflip, side flip, wall kick, dive and ground pound.
- The boss telegraphs a sweep you jump, a leap slam with a shockwave you hop, and a charge you sidestep. It gets faster below half health.
- Punches, dives, ground pounds and head stomps fill its posture meter. Break it and press E to grab, spin and throw.
- An eight-wedge health meter, with coins around the ring that refill a wedge each.

FAQ

- Yes. Hollow Warden runs in your browser with WebGPU or WebGL2. It's free, there's no account, and you don't need any game files. Desktop builds come from its GitHub releases.
- Is it made from the original games?
- No. Every mechanic is a clean-room implementation written from observed behaviour and published values, with original code and CC0 or self-made assets. The modes are inspired by N64-era 3D platformers.
