Don't give up! I was in the same position a few days ago, and I moved to #3 after another two days of nonstop hooking!
THREE HUNDRED AND NINETEEN PAGES ALL IN PRAISE OF HOOK CHAMP. I have a new favorite website. Indeed! I too am an acolyte of the greatest 16-bit swinging game on the App Store, Hook Champ! The fact that there is a new update coming (featuring John Gore, to boot!) is related to the fact that my fainting spells have increased fifteeeeeennn ppepeeeeerrrcceeeenneettbivbasovgkdasg. Whoops. Passed out for a second there.
Indeed, 3,190 posts dedicated to this one game. Admittedly crazed fans such as myself are responsible for a large proportion of them. You have some great games listed in your sig too, some of my favorites =)
Also, just noticed that the OF leaderboards now include the Furry levels. There is one high score already; I assume it was posted by someone from the Rocketcat. Looking forward to the update.
Heh, thanks. I've played Mother 3 five times so far... I really wanna get gpsPhone for that purpose only. Also, Cave Story really needs to get ported to the iPod already. So! Hope to get the update soon. And Avalanche Game is at the TOP of my "buy right away" list.
Hook Champ is technically neither 8 bit nor 16 bit. It's really just "8-bit inspired", much like the next game will be "16-bit inspired". Someone does need to make a Cave Story-like game for the iPhone. But who????
I'll get started, right away! You guys might see me in the Openfient scores, because I'm gunna have to get on Openfient a bit early to get these achievements. EDIT: Scratch that. Can't do it until it's released to the public, I guess.
