Hook Line & Sniper's attending the TooManyGames convention in Philadelphia, June 27-29!

It's one of HLS's last in-person cons before our next project, so if you want to meet the team or grab merch, it's the time to do it!

Someone managed to get through all levels of Hook Line & Sniper by getting only 1 krill per round. 😶

To get to the next world, some levels need like 350 krills to unlock..

Each run is 2 minutes long.. so they.. Wtf
