What about “HIT”?

We wrote about some updates in our Twitter, but we never really wrote any blog post and announcement of “HIT“. “HIT” was just a gameplay experiment, prototype. When we saw that gamers really liked it – we decided to make it less buggy, more interesting, more exciting game, and we did it!

We haven’t any plans to maintain old version of game, now we focused on “Recoil“. Many “HIT” bugs and issues are fixed in Recoil. Here’s an improvements list:

Small and large screens compatibility
2 crashes related with menu button fixed
Random crash during the game fixed
Global and local leaderboards improved
New Scoreloop services and social features integrated
Heyzap social service integrated
Game and difficulty balances improved
New color backgrounds every launch!
Many small improvements
Minor bugs fixed

What about my HIT high scores?

All your high score results just migrated to Recoil!

We recommend to our “HIT” users to download “Recoil”, because it’s a lot more better, and we have many great ideas for updates (new game modes, new features, nodes, bonuses, achievements)!
