    Hookbot's tophat: how do you unlock it? I've accomplished pretty much everything else in the game except for getting that blasted hat.

    I think Hookbot's tall tophat just costs game coins. Could be wrong.

    Gold Skull stumped me for a while. I would recommend maxing out Jake and to keep trying; the level actually gets a little easier after the first long swings and has four gems in a row towards the end.

    'Pee-Wee's Big Adventure' remains one of my favorite Tim Burton movies. 'Hey, it's Enrico Palazzo' plays Pee-wee's nemesis and the scene where P-W appears in a cameo role as a hotel clerk in his biopic remains awesome.

    Looking forward to the update.

    It seems so obvious now you've revealed it. It was written all over his scores.

    Like Guise said, use a fully upgraded Jake (with 5 rocket boot jumps). Once you get to the end of the level, if you get ALL the sneaky hidden gems, you should beat the #1 local time easily. So make sure you get the gems where you to a diagonal row of 4 of them, and the ones hidden inside the tower of destructible blocks.

    Edit 1 (to save me having 3 consecutive posts):

    I took Golden Skull back off qpawn about 2 hours ago, by 7 points. Not a perfect run by pretty damn good, no inefficient swings, only 1 slight area for improvement. So let's see how long it takes for him to beat this one.

    Also, Kepa, have you ever played the amazing freeware game Cave Story? I've been trying to place what Hook Champ reminded me of, and it finally dawned on me today.

    I'm guessing within in the next 6 hours. :) He already beat my Silver Wimpy score by 3 points. I thought I had a close to perfect run on that level, so I have no idea where to improve.

    EDIT: looks like qpawn beat your Gold Skull score within an hour. I wish I knew how he can perform so well on any level at any time. I can't come close to any of my Bull and Monkey scores.

    Not just beat it, but beat it by 15 points. That's just ridiculous, I can't see any way of improving my score by more than 2 or 3 points. So unless he knows some amazing trick, I'm calling foul play (again).

    I know exactly how you feel. I noticed by how much he had beat you, and I was a bit surprised. So not only can he turn around and beat scores within a very short amount of time, he is able to blow them away. Got me...

    I have played Cave Story. It's a great game, and it lead to a lot of other great freeware games being made for awhile. Probably not a direct inspiration for Hook Champ, though.

    I like Jake's Beast Mode in Minigore. That update seemed to come out extremely fast. Wasn't that like a day? I hope the Hook Champ update comes out at the same blistering speed. I want to see everyone die in the Ghost Realm.

    HookBot's enormous hat is received for beating either Gold Skull or Gold Rat, I think. I'm not sure on this.

    We don't do an achievement for beating all the gold levels because we're still adding levels. We most likely will never add an achievement for beating all the gold levels, as we want the option to keep adding levels whenever we want. You'll notice that the gold level achivements are worth more than the other achivements, though.

    I'll look into the qpawn thing closer by the end of this week, possibly the weekend.

    Yeah someone posted the other day saying their update was approved in 12 hours, Apple must be on some serious drugs.

    How long before we get the new challenge system, since you had to take it out? I was really looking forward to it. Still can't wait for Update 3, though.
