Hook Hopper

Hold to swing, let go to fly.

Hook Hopper is a one-button physics game set in the skies above a comic-book city. Press and hold to fire your grappling hook at the nearest ring, swing around it to build speed, then release at the right moment and sail across the gap. Miss the next ring and you drop into the halftone sea, but you are back at the start in under a second, so it is easy to try again.

Each of the 20 levels has three stars to grab, and one of them sits behind a hook, so you have to swing backwards to reach it. Beat the final level to unlock endless mode.

Features

• 20 levels, each with 3 stars, including one tricky "backwards" star
• New obstacles as you go: bouncy spring mushrooms, soft cloud walls and moving hooks
• Instant restarts and a best time saved for every level
• Collect stars to unlock 4 color schemes for your hero
• Endless mode that keeps generating hooks, with your best distance saved
• Bold American comic-book pop art, with a brass-heavy funk soundtrack
• English and Chinese, switchable from the corner button at any time

The first level is gentle and the difficulty ramps up slowly. If you keep falling on a level, an optional skip button shows up after three failed attempts.

Controls

• Mouse: hold the left button to grapple, release to let go
• Touch: press and hold anywhere on the screen, lift your finger to let go
• Keyboard: hold Space to grapple, release to let go
