[edit] Landmark?

I beg to differ. Remark removed until someone can come up with something convincing. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 78.86.166.160 (talk) 21:32, 25 February 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Great game!

I love it too. Hi, I'm the user who tried to butcher your article to make it better. Sorry about that. I'm trying to save what ever can be saved in it just so you know. No Parking 03:30, 28 November 2005 (UTC)

I Agree great game I remember playing it on my very first Windows PC :D Xaios 09:46, 30 June 2006 (UTC)

Where can I get a copy? I had this on a laptop in 1997, and I would love to play it again!

I've found it on the internet before for download. --216.209.112.50 00:50, 22 June 2006 (UTC)

Hey, if you want a copy e-mail me, ttytyty@gmail.com, i have a self-extracting EXE of it. LOL it is soooo fun, I still play it on my Win 98 box.

Wikipedia seems to show a maze hack for to see the crediter's, does anyone know how to get to this hidden level? If so, post here or email me at aztec_g@hotmail.com .

It was manually created by editing some offsets in the EXE file itself. I don't have them anymore (and it isn't even a playable level, yet), but I could probably find it again. Except, you know, that isn't "encyclopedic content" and would probably be deleted anyway. --Xkeeper 19:14, 13 December 2006 (UTC)

Anyone know the hack? Hamster2.0 00:38, 6 January 2007 (UTC)

I can't seem to find it anywhere except Wikipedia. Can you tell us alittle more, it seems to have been lost in time. Hamster2.0 01:45, 8 January 2007 (UTC)

See the Easter Egg section in the article. No hack needed...just an obscure bit of trivia. Jseghers (talk) 00:12, 19 January 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Personal Scores

I always loved this game. My personal best is 1,876,050 points on level 31. Beat that!

I got 3 million some points level 49... So there!

My personal best is 8 million something. I lost on level 103. Beat That!

[edit] Link Edits

I've removed the link to ""Hover Game" - Online resource for hover games and hovercraft". Which does not appear to be related to the actual game Hover! As far as linking to a downloadable copy of Hover! I find somewhat questionable but I will not remove it myself, Thoughts? Xaios 09:46, 30 June 2006 (UTC)

I have removed the external direct link to download a Hover ZIP file. If we are to link to this file, please provide information about where Microsoft has allowed people to freely distribute this component of Windows 95. - Mark 05:11, 23 August 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Score (music)

Does anyone know who composed the music score?... I'd be interested to know this little trivia. ;-) Klow 18:25, 13 May 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Ahhh....

I Found Some More 'easter eggs' To Add To the Wiki... The String Table, and Dialog Boxed Found In Hover.exe, Have Refrences To A 'Game Editor' That Was Origionaly Included In The Game, But May have Been Taken Out, Last Miniute... The Tech Geek 08:35, 18 August 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Thanks for making it better!

When I first put this article up, it was a rough, poorly written entry. But thanks to the user "No Parking" (and I'm sure there were many more), this has become a fairly decent article. Just want to thank everyone for remembering this game and for making it a good article.

Oh, by the way, who thinks they should make an XBox 360 remake? You could have a story mode, more weapons, more levels, more music, more enemies, and more AWESOMENESS!

[edit] How do you activate the egg?

So, I wanted to know how to activate the developer head easter egg/hack.

The answer is now in the article Jseghers (talk) 00:11, 19 January 2008 (UTC)

P.S. Is it on other versions of Windows?

No. It was shipped on the Win95 CD-ROM. It does, however, run on later versions of Windows. Jseghers (talk) 00:11, 19 January 2008 (UTC)
