5 Stars - A True Successor
If you enjoyed Hook Champ, youll enjoy this - but I feel Hook Champ is superior in the following ways:
* There was steady improvement (equipment wise) as you advanced. In SQH, I had every performance upgrade before I had started the third set of levels. I can blame this, unfortunately, on the glitch that forced me to get 2000 points in Avalanche mode before advancing.
* Hook Champ had an actual story; this started to have one but does not continue it through out the levels. I had hoped I would be playing as the hermit, trying to find a new place to live - but instead Im some lame guy without a story.
* Hook Champ had a better graphical style, imo - though this is subjective; they both have a fairly retro style, but Hook Champ is dark and mysterious whereas this is bright and fun.
* Hook Champ had awesome dialogue.
* Hook Champ had an awesome shopkeeper.
The awesome things about SQH are:
* that its an awesome Grappling Hook game
* More levels of Hook Champ (though, like I said, the game play is a bit different)
* That its faster, but not too fast
* A randomized level that resets on every play
* A fun game that you can play for a few minutes
* The awesome dialogue (theres tons: I still havent run out and Ive been playing since release) in the shop
On that note - I would prefer if the avalanche did not reset after each run - doing that would actually allow for more exploration. Id also like a randomized level without the time constraints.
I also wish the game didnt have the glitches when it starts up. If I have too many programs running in the background, some levels (ZigZag Horror, for example) are unplayable, even with the settings turned down.
Im looking forward to Update 3!
