Question 1

Is Hamsteria on Switch, Xbox, or PlayStation?

Accepted Answer

No. Hamsteria is only available for Windows & Linux PC. Download free on itch.io.

Question 2

Is Hamsteria free?

Accepted Answer

Yes, completely free on itch.io. The Steam version will also have a free demo.

Question 3

I'm on a high-end Nvidia GPU and only see a black screen. What do I do?

Accepted Answer

This is a known issue with the latest Nvidia drivers affecting some Godot games. Try rolling back your Nvidia driver or run the game with DirectX 12 using: Hamsteria_Windows.exe --rendering-driver d3d12

Question 4

Can I remap controls or use two players on one keyboard?

Accepted Answer

The itch.io demo does not support in-game control remapping. For now we recommend using two gamepads for co-op. The upcoming Steam demo will add control remapping.

Question 5

How long is the game?

Accepted Answer

A smooth run is often 1-2 hours; the developer has said that's a minimum. Many first-time or co-op playthroughs take 4-6 hours or more.

Question 6

What platforms is it on?

Accepted Answer

Windows and Linux only. Available now on the official itch.io page.

Question 7

How do I turn or change direction?

Accepted Answer

There is no separate turn button. To change the direction you're facing, both hamsters need to coordinate—for example, one spins forward while the other spins backward.

Question 8

Can I play online co-op?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Online co-op is supported and has been praised during playtests for its stability.

Question 9

Will Hamsteria come to Steam?

Accepted Answer

Yes! Hamsteria is coming to Steam. The Steam demo will include camera fixes, new music, unlockable hats and more.

Question 10

How big is the game download?

Accepted Answer

Only about 92MB. It's a very lightweight download that installs quickly.

Question 11

Does the game have checkpoints?

Accepted Answer

Yes! The game has frequent checkpoints and auto-saves. You can also reload from an earlier point via Pause → Saved Checkpoints.

Question 12

Can I reload from an earlier checkpoint?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Open the pause menu and choose Saved Checkpoints to reload. Use this if the game feels unstable after many respawns.

Question 13

Can I play Hamsteria on Mac?

Accepted Answer

Hamsteria is not officially supported on Mac. Some players run it via Whisky; single player may work, but online co-op can be laggy (P2P). Steam release may bring optimizations.

Question 14

What's the hardest part of the game?

Accepted Answer

Many players find the Cylinder section the hardest. Use brake frequently and adjust your angle before each rotation.

Question 15

Any tips for the Seesaw sections?

Accepted Answer

Sync with countdown (press B or C), then both move together. Brake when you reach each bridge segment.

Question 16

Is there controller/gamepad support?

Accepted Answer

Yes, gamepads are fully supported and recommended for co-op play.
