It’s developer-created but “unofficial”

Is it still a gag if you actually make the thing?

While the mod exists and is playable, it’s not and won’t be an official mode. That means Robinson-Yu is planning on keeping his server live for only two weeks.

As other tweets explain, this isn’t a battle royale mode. There are very few ways for players to interact with one another in A Short Hike, barstanding one each other’s heads, and some of the physics objectsdon’t like dealing with multiple people.

Still, the reason I love A Short Hike is that it’s a lovely place to hang out. It’s nice to hang out in it with other people. Any person I’ve met in the mod - there are 18 people online right now - has jumped in front of me a few times, as if to say hello, and then we’ve simply jogged around together for a few minutes. Eventually one of us flies off a ledge and we go our separate ways. The perfect relationship.
