Description

So I've been sitting in front of my computer for the last 13 months making this game. It's some sort of crossover between ZiGGURAT, Smash Brothers and the "coffee break" minigame in Mario Paint, of all things. The result is an iPad-only arcade game, with pretty unique touch controls.

In HOOKBALL you use your grappling hook to punch monsters in the face and survive for as long as you can (typically not very long). It features lovingly hand crafted lo-fi pixel graphics, and a rocking rasta-chip soundtrack. It's a very focused arcade game that rewards precision and speed.
