SplitHoppers

SplitHoppers

Roguelike survivor where enemies split. Kill them fast or they multiply.

Split Hoppers is built around one mechanic: every enemy has a split timer. Let it run out and they fracture into 2-10 smaller and faster copies. Those can split again. Your job is to kill things before they multiply, but you can't always keep up.

The Split Mechanic

Killing fast prevents splits. Let enemies live too long and they fracture where they stand, flooding the area with smaller and harder-to-hit children. Positioning matters. Some builds prevent splitting entirely, others lean into the chaos and scale damage off enemy count. Four build archetypes: Containment, Predator, Culling and Swarm Surge.

6 Characters

Each with 3 unlockable passives:

• Hyrax - balanced starter, shockwave on kill streaks
• Rat - glass cannon, plague dash infects enemies on contact
• Fish - tank, pressure aura slows nearby splits
• Beetle - burrow strikes that stun and deal heavy damage
• Goose - builds rage stacks into honk blasts
• Gecko Bros - drop turrets on dash that focus fire targets
