Pick the closest symptom
Shortest safe order
Direct official-site test → one clean reload → private window without extensions → current browser → another network or device → wait before repeated retries.
Hop Earth not working: seven fixes
- Test hop.earth directly. This tells you whether the iframe is part of the problem.
- Reload once, then wait. Rapid repeated loads can add traffic without fixing an upstream outage.
- Disable blockers for this test. Privacy extensions can block scripts, storage, or cross-origin game resources.
- Use a current Chrome, Edge, Firefox, or Safari. Old WebGL and browser APIs can fail silently.
- Check hardware acceleration. A black 3D scene with working menus often points toward graphics.
- Close heavy tabs. Road and terrain generation can compete for device memory.
- Choose a familiar city road. If one place fails, separate location data from a whole-game failure.
Known launch-period pressure
Developer and community discussions report sudden player growth, bugs, and server load. A failed frame load does not automatically mean your device is broken.
