Hook & Roll

this game ♥♥♥♥♥♥ my wife

I really like how the monowheel slightly tilts when turning, and also the destruction/breaking details, those feel super nice. The stylized materials have a lot of personality too. You can tell a ton of effort went into designing the levels and especially the swing mechanism. Honestly… I’m just gonna blindly support this and brag everywhere like “yeah my friend made this game” lol. And here is some things I think could be improved: UI and fonts: The icons on the start menu aren’t super intuitive. I actually stared at the quit button for a few seconds before realizing what it was. It might help if the four icons were grouped together, since placing them diagonally made them a bit hard to notice at first. The in-game font is kind of hard to read, especially in all caps. I personally get pretty dizzy trying to read it. The speed doesn’t show any unit like km/h or mph. Some levels show coins as 9999 out of 9999, which feels a bit off. The UI doesn’t seem to support controller interaction. Gameplay: Those two vertical objects on the edges of jump platforms are a bit annoying. I keep bumping into them and falling off. The jump input on keyboard feels a bit inconsistent. Sometimes I press jump and nothing happens. This doesn’t seem to be an issue when using a controller though. Also, the UI still can’t be controlled with a controller. The monowheel feels a bit too light. Sometimes when I jump I end up flying off the track or landing on decorative platforms, which breaks immersion a bit. In areas with gaps or traps, I wish the indicators were more obvious. Maybe the rotating ring obstacles could use a more noticeable color, since I didn’t even realize there was something there the first time I encountered them. It might feel better if the third person camera pulls back slightly when boosting. The coin pickup sound is way too loud and startles me almost every time. Also, for some reason the distant visuals shake a lot when boosting, which makes it kind of dizzy to look at. I don’t play racing games very often, so I might not have the most objective feedback. The swing system definitely has a steep learning curve and takes a lot of practice to get used to. Traps in the levels, like logs or broken track sections, feel intentionally brutal in a funny way. Some sections feel like they are almost entirely traps, and I crashed so many times it felt pretty hopeless, kind of like playing Getting Over It or even a soulslike. It honestly feels more like a soulslike racing game. If someone enjoys that kind of challenge, they will probably have a great time. As for me, I almost gave up several times lmao

Gioco davvero coinvolgente e ben fatto. Grafica curata, gameplay fluido e mai noioso. Perfetto sia per partite veloci che sessioni più lunghe. Lo consiglio assolutamente!

I already knew the game before I had it on Steam. I really appreciated Hook & Roll because it manages to combine two different genres in an interesting way: racing and platforming. What works best is that speed is never an end in itself: you have to control it, use the grappling hook well, choose the right trajectories, and keep the rhythm going. The game is satisfying precisely when you manage to chain movement, momentum, and precision without breaking the flow. I liked it because it doesn’t feel like a simple platformer with racing elements, nor like a racing game with a few extra jumps: the two aspects work together. The track becomes a space to read and interpret, almost like a platforming level built around momentum. Recommended for anyone who enjoys games where movement is the real protagonist.
