Rocketcat Musicians!

The composer behind Hook Champ, Amon26, has made seven all new songs for the next Hook Champ update! More music, especially during the levels themselves, has been a long standing request for the game. Here's a download of one of those new songs, as a preview:

All New Hook Champ Song

You can find his website RIGHT HERE. He's got more music on there, including full albums. He also makes free games that are quite great.

Two new composers are making music for our next game, Super Quick Hook. You can hear some examples of their music in the last trailer. They also have a bunch of music on their respective websites.

IJSF (composer of the first song in the above trailer)
