Energy Hook Update Alpha 4.0 has landed - Codename *Buggier Than Hell*

If you’re already a proud owner of the Energy Hook alpha, you can download the update now. If not, you can become an owner at http://energyhookgame.com. With this update, I’ve upgraded to Unity 4.6 and introduced a lot of new bugs which I could use your help finding all of. So, if you’re willing to do a little unpaid QA work, give the game a go and report your bugs either here in the comments or to [email protected].

But there is a little new content in there as well - Keegan O’Rourke has finished his Sky Gardens level, lighted it, done the post effects, and finished the challenges. They’re pretty hard! We may have to ease up on them - or at the very least make a ‘retry’ option.

FWIW, here’s a preliminary list of bugs I’ve found as I was getting it ready to launch - but don’t worry about posting duplicates, I like to get an idea just how pervasive a bug is.

• Mt. Industry always unavailable

• Some races are in wrong order now

• UI for challenges in New Atlantis messed up

• Challenge levels lost their backgrounds

• Starting race challenge after trick attack challenge showed wrong leaderboard

• Trick attack score reported as 0 when it wasn't

• Gamepad isn't working on pause menu

• Going to gear menu takes you to main menu instead

• Going from 1st to 3rd person leaves you invisible

• Energy Hook maximum distance level

• Race marker at start of Dark City is really dark

• VR Challenge 03 from Dark City doesn't load - and then it locked up going to Tune Equipment

• Loses audio levels whenever we change levels?

• The over large minimum jump makes it really hard to jump into teleporter tubes

• On landing in continuous mode sometimes holds crouch pose

• Friction too high on rooftop in Dark City with Future Island teleporter.

• Running up some building sides harder than others? (Dark City, building with Future Island teleporter)

• Trick attack on New Atlantis - UI looks wrong

• Strange intermittent sheen on floor in Dark City

• Trick attacks should bank your last in-progress combo

• Starting teleporter in Future Island should go to Dark City

• Misty City trick attack didn't keep score correctly

• Loops are nigh-impossible now - gravity too high?

• Possible to get stuck in rooftop

• Game crashed going from Sky Gardens to Radar City

• Misty city fog - alpha mixture still bad

• Windows are black

• Jump seems out of control when maxed out
