Mr. Sun's Hatbox

Mr. Sun's Hatbox

Released Apr 2023

Mr Sun’s Hatbox is a slapstick, roguelite platformer about getting the job done at all costs. Upgrade your HQ, your team, and your tools so you can take on increasingly dangerous (and ridiculous) missions, wearing hats with amazing (or questionable) potential.

Evaluation

Mr. Sun's Hatbox launched on April 20, 2023. Following release, the developer (Kenny Sun) was active through May 2023, shipping a series of patches that addressed bugs and made balance tweaks — the last recorded communication was a feature patch on May 15, 2023. There have been no developer posts of any kind since that date. The game shipped with only one DLC item, a soundtrack released on launch day. No additional DLC has been announced or listed, and there are no unreleased DLC entries on the store. The store description and short description present the game as a complete, self-contained experience with no mention of ongoing content, seasons, or expansions. The post-launch activity consisted entirely of bug fixes and small balance patches in the weeks immediately following launch — a typical pattern for a game wrapping up its launch period rather than building toward further content. There is only one major content signal in the entire news history (the launch itself), and no subsequent major updates were ever shipped or announced. The developer has been silent since May 15, 2023. With no announced future content, no unreleased DLC, no sustained update pattern beyond launch-window patches, and over three years of silence from the developer, the game appears to have launched as a complete, finished product with no post-launch content planned beyond launch-window polish.

About this game


The dastardly Mr Moon and his troublemakers have stolen Mr Sun’s hatbox delivery from a humble courier company. With the fate of an aspiring apparel business at stake, it’s up to you to build a team, stage a series of heists, and get it back.

Starting out as a solo delivery squad, you’ll need to build up an organization of reformed hat thieves and work together as a team or against each other to beat the odds. Whether you’re sending your unit out on covert or chaotic missions, you’ll make use of a closetful of stylish headgear and an assortment of weapons to track down and return the stolen package to its rightful owner.




Modest Beginnings - Start small and gradually build a unit fit for taking down the mischievous Mr Moon and his troublemakers.

Capture or Frag - Eliminate or extricate Mr Moon’s minions. Have them pay the price for their thieving crimes or recruit them for your next mission.

Look the part - Discover over 50 different hats, each with unique properties. From the practical to the powerful. Even the pointless.




Prep for the Heist - Take on a series of specialist missions from wave-based action to espionage before attempting a tricky Hat Heist, collecting crowns to unlock perks for your crew and moving onto the next phase of your operation.

The more hands, the safer the delivery - Play solo or work together cooperatively to take on each mission in Couch Co-op (Controllers Required) or Steam Remote Play Together (™)

Stand and deliver in head to head battles - Bring your swords, machine guns, and stale baguettes to the battlefield in 1v1 or Last Hat Standing PVP. (Controllers required for local play)




A hat for all seasons - Dynamite Head Bands, Cardboard Boxes, Noise Cancelling Earphones and Jet Packs! There’s a style to suit every situation.

Rooms to suit a certain mood - Build up a base of operations with a Brig to brainwash captives, a Lab to experiment on your staff, and a Black Market to purchase illicit contraband.

Curious Quirks - Every character is different, making them individually suited (or unsuitable) for your mission, from a Butter Fingers with near-sightedness to an Animal Trainer with quick reflexes. Make sure you’re allocating your resources appropriately.

Retro style with known quality - A distinct and vibrant pixel art style from Mr Kenny Sun, creator of Circa Infinity and Yankai’s Peak.
