    That's what I thought, but if you had a valid concern, I just wanted to let you know that I definitely don't cheat. :)

    i hope this update comes out soon because it is absolutely impossible for me to improve my score on golden rat as well as just beat silver hat. there is just way too much latency when i reach the green lava on gold rat...as soon as i drop down to get the first gem, the touch-response of my finger & the hook is just way off. same goes for the first/second set of rings on silver hat....even the slightest bit of lag ruins any chances of winning.

    also, i'm really surprised to see that people think stone hat is harder than silver. stone is pretty straight forward after the first run through.

    Stone Hat is really hard..But once you get through it, the other levels are easier [but still challenging]

    I recently got the hook for Gunny, but it knocks my groove off, sense the hook doesn't swing before you throw it. Is there any way to toggle off special hooks?

    Yeah, we're all still waiting on the 3.5 Update. It has a speed fix in options which should help a little bit. If it's not enough, we'll try something more drastic included in update 4.

    It's possible Apple's back to their old update approval times.

    Special Hook toggle on/off: We can add it to the list of feature requests, not sure when we'll get around to it, though.

    I'm not exactly sure what you mean, but I'm pretty sure your Grand Total is the highest score you've achieved on every level combined. So the only way it will increase is if you get even better scores than your current bests. I don't check into the scoreboards a whole lot though, so I'm not 100% sure but I think that's how it works.

    Okay, thanks. Have you guys considered having official forums on the Rocketcat website?

    I think that its about time to buy this app. I will try out the lite, and if i like, then this is a buy. When it first came out I didn't give it a chance, but i have to now. All these good apps keep coming!!! First GTA, now i'm hooked on Guerrila Bob, now it XGAMES snowcross, now possibly hook champ!

    try the lite. Im sure u will love it. Anyway the full is totally worth $3, trust me (even though i got it for free). In fact this game could easily be $5

    Smart choice, my man. I've tried plenty of games on the iPod, this is the best. :D

    Oh jeez I didn't know my review was up yet. *quickly edits mistakes and adds screenshots*

    Not really, I don't see the point. We have a blog, a twitter account, and in-game OpenFeint threads. We might add in forums to OpenFeint, maybe. Mostly, we just need to take some time to update the page.

    I'm not aware of any OpenFeint global scoreboard bug. Let me know if you have more details, or if anyone else has this problem.

    kepa,

    saw your reply on the 3.0 update posted by TA...just a few points where i'm getting lag, despite the update already submitted...

    didn't start happening until i basically unlocked everything and started playing for speed. i am stuck on silver hat; part it's difficulty, part lag. the golden rat is the sticking point; i obviously got through it once and now it's literally impossible. if i get past the first gem, i've spent jakes hot pants +1 boost. once I reach the next set of green lava, it's basically impassable.

    this becomes a big problem on silver hat, too, when I get to the rings sections. i can usually get past the first, but once i have less space between the "floor" and the "ceiling," it becomes impossible.

    these are the two levels where it's proving to be really difficult to improve, win, etc. every other level lags to a varying degree; stone wimpy lags a lot when using gunny right around the first two coins...whatever level on skull that you are breaking blocks every other hook lags considerably.

    i absolutely love this game and would love for this to be fixed.

    Good choice, Hook Champ is one of the finest games available, on any damn system! But I will say, the game has a learning curve, some "get it" quicker than others. Just make sure you put enough time into the lite, and don't dismiss it right away if it seems really hard. And remember, everyone in this thread is here for you. ;)

    I believe this problem was addressed in update 3.5. The only problem is that it is taking some time to be verified. More information can be found here.

    Kepa also said that he would be working on resolving the problem further if it was not resolved already. Best of luck!
