Vertical Adventures Delayed & Hookshot Escape Release Date

As you know, there's a lot going on here with Hookshot Escape (WP7) being pushed back and all. Unfortunately, this has affected the release for Vertical Adventure on the PC. We're not 100% sure on this yet, but the tentative release date will be 1st July 2011, so rest assured, it will only be a short push back, in a matter of weeks, not months.

(Update: Vertical Adventure will be release on 18th July 2011, to avoid being drown in all the summer sales. Please help to spread the word, and not let that happen!)

For those that didn't already know, Tobe's Vertical Adventure is set for the Steam & Gamersgate. The game now comes with controller support, scores, an alternate character of different stats and ability and achievements for Steam players.

As of Hookshot Escape (WP7), the game will finally be released on 20th June, and an expansion featuring alternate character will also be added later.

What's new in Tobe's VA?

Tobe's Vertical Adventure was previously released on the XBLIG which included 16 levels, which spans across 4 different island. The new PC version remains largely the same, but added Nana storyline as an alternate character who's slower, less agile but with the ability to perform a double jump. This should enhance the replayability, especially in the co-op mode which player can now make up for each other's incapility.

TOBE'S VERTICAL ADVENTURE

Tobe's Vertical Adventure is about Tobe, the overly devoted gamer who's been force on a treasure hunt by his materialistic crush, Nana. The big head duo will travel back back and forth in the crumbling caves in search of treasures while rescuing fluffy animals, making you scream kawaii ne~ along the way. With 2 unique characters and a total of 4 islands and 16 levels to explore, the game will last you for hours.

If you haven't heard about Tobe before, it's a retro platformer for the XBLIG, which thankfully, manage to get us some pretty decent feedbacks and reviews back in the days. The game was developed before setting up Secret Base, and since the completion of Bitejacker recently, we've been busy trying to furthur polish it and to bring it over to the PC. Now that the port is completed, we are looking at different game portals like desura, gamersgate and so on to facilitate the sales. Once we establish that, this is what you gonna get...
