A strange little side quest
The mechanics around Tako Hop-hop have roots that stretch far beyond modern browsers. Sonic the Hedgehog launched in 1991 and turned speed itself into a defining platform-game mechanic. Another piece of context lands nicely beside it: Nintendo's Donkey Kong arrived in 1981 and introduced the character first known as Jumpman, who later became Mario. That gives Tako Hop-hop a little more company than it first appears to have.
