Watching the trailers, I am kind of missing how the hook would swing in hook champ... It seems like an odd omission, and would make the hook shooting look better. Hope this gets put in, but in an update, i hope the game to come out as soon as possible after the beta is done.
I think part of that may just be the trailer, the guy is going pretty quick and doesn't really make any mistakes, so the rope is always straight for the most part. I'm assuming that if you go slower or mess up or something, the rope will still bend and stuff if it's not pulled tight. Hopefully.
Nono, you misunderstand. I dont mean when the hook is out and hooked, im not refering to anything to do with the gameplay. Just an aesthetic choice, the animation of when the hook is idle and the character is about to shoot it mid air, in hook champ the hook can be seen swinging(lassooing?) in a small circle about to be shot. Its missing completely from Super Quick Hook, and I think that is one of the reasons why the characters look so stiff, and why the hook shooting doesnt look right, when compared to Hook Champ.
That's true, good call. I liked that a lot too, hopefully they'll add that for SQH. There should be a new trailer out soon, maybe we'll see it there.
It'll be submitted before Friday. We're basically done, just adding final OpenFeint bits. Then we'll test it for a couple days. The underlying framework was so meticulously made that we're not foreseeing any problems. Yeah, we didn't do the lassoing thing this time. I kind of miss it, too. We made the jumps a little animated, instead. We might be able to sneak it in an update if there's overwhelming demand for it, but none of the beta testers really commented on the loss. New trailer should be coming out tomorrow. And we'll probably leak an early release trailer after that, to help people deal with the wait. Also to celebrate our Twitter following, which got pretty big.
I've been holding $2.58 on my itunes account just waiting for this to come out. Glad it is going to be submitted soon.

Well I wasn't going to buy this since it doesn't seem any good at all but then I heard about exclusive hats. Instant buy.
Doesn´t seem any good? How can an improved version of Hook Champ with endless replay value not seem good? I will be buying this game the second I know it´s out. Hook Champ is one of my favourite games of all time on my Touch.
New trailer up! I linked to it in the first post. We're doing one more trailer for the release of the game, though we're going to post it early, straight to the @rocketcatgames Twitter. Ghost racing done and in the game. Just finishing the OpenFeint stuff!
