Hello Nico,

the online stores decide which games are part of their catalog.

Right now people can buy Grappling Hook in this online shops:
Gamersgate: http://www.gamersgate.com/a...
Archive Games: http://www.archivegames.net...
Macgamestore: http://www.macgamestore.com...

I'm confident that with more users more stores will accept Grappling Hook in their catalog.

Best regards,
Christian

Re: Grappling Hook Now Only $14.95!

Thanks for your comment.
The price of Grappling Hook will not be reduced more.
Setting the price of a product to low reduces the expected quality. This may lead to less sales than with a higher price.
Regarding special deals: They are only for a limited time period.
The regular price for World of Goo is $20.

I also feel like a newb, when I watch Dave playing. :)
The perfect use of strafe-jumping and air-control makes a huge time-difference.
When you got all stars, you are already really good!

Re: Good Game Get! Grappling Hook

SpeedRunGames — Fri, 09 Oct 2009 14:09:07 -0000

Thank you very much for this review and feedback!
Since version 1.02 it is possible to configure the mouse- and keyboard-settings (in the keys.cfg), so it is for example possible to run, jump and shoot with the mouse-buttons.
I will check all tutorial-messages and will try to make them easier to understand.
Sincerely,
Christian

I like it when character-models and animations in games are very expressive.
So, I would prefer a longer snout, bigger teeth, and a head that is not that broad. Perhaps it also would look cool, when the tip of the snout, would be a bit bigger. The face looks quite friendly, not very threatening.
The claws are quite small. I would prefer when the fingers would be smaller and the claws longer. White claws would be more an eye-catcher.
The tail could be a bit longer.
The head is very big, so my first thought is, that the wolves are a lot smarter than the rabbits.

That is just my personal opinion.

Re: Grappling Hook Version 1.01 available

SpeedRunGames — Sat, 03 Oct 2009 06:26:21 -0000

The Linux version will be released within the next 4 weeks.

Re: Windows Release and Demo!

SpeedRunGames — Sat, 19 Sep 2009 11:26:52 -0000

Next release is for Mac OS and then Linux.
I want to test these version more, because Java behaves in some cases different on different platforms.
Also I want to deploy the game on every platform in a professional way, which means a deb-File for Ubuntu/Debian and an application package for Mac OS.

Sorry, I don't require any more tester.
But I promise: I will release it very soon. :)

Yeah. I can confirm that.
Visual Assist is incredible, when you use Visual Studio.

Hey Heiko, :)

a friend played all levels today. He had no problem with the guiding. :)
The puzzles at the end are tough, thats right! When you finished all levels you can call yourself "Grappling Hook Master"!

It would be great if you could play the game again before public release.
Best regards,
Christian
