L-O-V-E it!
Very Addicting!
Happy #FollowFriday everyone! If you don’t that lingo, it’s time for you to jump on Twitter and follow us for contest exclusive on Twitter. Follow @TheAPPera and @RocketcatGames!
You might remember that when Rocketcat Games sent us exclusive Hook Champ-Minigore update info and screens, they ALSO sent us TEN PROMOCODES to download the latest version of Hook Champ.
Once the update is out, you get to download it for FREE! Check out the full list of winners after the jump.
Enough fooling around!!! We got some exclusive screens and info on the upcoming Minigore visit to the epic 8Bit action platformer Hook Champ, AND some codes to give out as we await the release of the update:
Here’s what Kepa of Rocketcat Games had to say about the upcoming update: “It plays like Minigore would if John Gore had a grappling hook. Kind of like a simplified Bionic Commando.”
He also goes on to say that there will be no time limit on this level and the furries will come at you NONSTOP! And now, for what everyone’s waiting for I’m sure, find out HOW TO WIN a FREE copy of Hook Champ, after the jump…
Rocketcat Games sat down with MTV Multiplayer to talk about their classic action adventure game Hook Champ as well as reveal the details to one of their upcoming games currently dubbed as “Avalanche Game“.
Out the door, the most interesting “new” feature to note is how Rocketcat Games is moving on up with the graphics of this Avalanche Game. Hook Champ of course is 8Bit while this new upcoming game will be 16Bit.
Upgrade!
They also revealed that Hook Champ was going to be a survival, endless and randomly generated game much like Canabalt and so with Canabalt’s obvious success, Avalanche Game would be somewhat similar:
‘Canabalt’ is a little limited ’cause it’s just rooftops, but we’re going to do a cross-country jaunt. In the main mode, where you’re running away from the avalanche, you’re going to start on a meadow, and then it’ll be totally random where you can go across grassy fields with ruins on them or caverns made out of ice.
The awesome retro looking hook swinging action adventure game Hook Champ finally got its first update release last night. Among the multitude of new features it received, one stood out the most… OpenFeint Ghost Race Challenges!
I know I know the video above is simply kick-awesome (that’s Kris Allen for you), but there’s way more to this update than ghosts. What else is new? Oh I don’t know?! Maybe a new clothes, challenges and even a cool new character! Like I said, kick awesome!
This next game got two impressions out of us: WTF is this graphics, and second, holy [bleep] this is good!
Hook Champ is one of those games that carry a definitive art style more than anything. After you get over the fact Rocketcat opted out of shiny 3D graphics, you’ll realize this is one heck of a platformer that’ll keep you “hangin” for hours after hours!
