Every video game has its rhythm and times. Hades, the new Supergiant Games production, has become one of the most successful titles of the year. The new from the creators of Bastion and Transistor was not created to be played with a dance mat, but as usual, there are always users who go off the tangent to surprise their own and strangers.

Still, PeekingBoo has shown that moving the skeleton can also defeat the numerous enemies that appear on screen. Stomp to one side, stomp to the other, a jump back and forth, this player has been able to overcome each and every challenge that has been put in front of him.
