Developer Tribute Games Inc.
Flinthook is a roguelike platformer by Tribute Games in which the player's character uses a grappling hook to traverse procedurally generated spaceships for treasure. The developers were inspired by "rogue-lites" including Spelunky and Rogue Legacy. They said that the grappling hook game mechanic was their hardest design challenge. The game was released in April 2017 for Windows, macOS, Linux, PlayStation 4, and… From Wikipedia (CC BY-SA 4.0)

unlabelledView post →It's a mix! The first one was looking for fresh ideas to prototype in incubation at Rovio, second was an idea a friend and I prototyped after but left on the backburner, and the last one became Flinthook, released on Steam in 2017. Often these are to look for a game worthy to spend time on!
unlabelledView post →Flinthook model I made a while back. Super great pixel art and animation on this game! #3d #fanart
unlabelledView post →Thanks! Flinthook was flawed but definitely had a lot of good things! New game coming soon :)
unlabelledView post →To this day my mind regularly goes back to Flinthook and its many, many charms. Hope one day soon we get to play new game of yours.
unlabelledView post →Ahhh I love Flinthook! Such a great game! You guys rock!
unlabelledView post →From my (minimal) research, as a publisher of their own titles, Tributes Game seems to embargo reviews until day of. I looked up the release date and date of reviews of Panzer Paladin and Flinthook and both coincided on the same day. And both are great games. Seems to be a strategy they prefer.
unlabelledView post →11. Flinthook. Motherfucker I LOVE Flinthook! It's so fucking good! Why doesn't it have thousands more reviews? I thought y'all loved that Celeste shit of zipping around? I'm pretty sure this was top 2 in my Game of the Year 2017. Fucking Flinthook! store.steampowered.com/app/401710/F...
unlabelledView post →Absolutely! Are there any examples that stand out to you as missed opportunities; roguelikes you would have loved to see granted a "campaign mode?" For whatever reason my mind keeps dragging me back to FlintHook, a Tribute game from 2017, before the trend had even solidified in hindsight...
unlabelledView post →Flinthook- The one real pleasant surprise of the night! An action roguelike with a (TECHNICALLY space) pirate theme, heavily involving an omnidirectonal hookshot. It has absolutely EXCELLENT sprite art, really nice music, snappy pacing, fun movement tech. Just a really pleasant game all around.
unlabelledView post →I liked Flinthook the most because it was a game where if you wanted to do better you could literally tell yourself "Try to look cool" and it would help haha, I like speedrunning small games like this fun rhythm one called 140, I also like Pizza Tower, Panzer Paladin, I've speedrun mario 64 too!
unlabelledView post →I sometimes like to speedrun games! There was a while where I had 1st place in quite a few categories for a game called Flinthook
unlabelledView post →LOVE Flinthook! Imo it’s the best non-brawler game Tribute’s ever made. The movement is SO GOOD
unlabelledView post →Very cool little video! Is this just a sprite animation or actual game footage? Also the music very much reminds me of one of the songs from Flinthook.

unlabelledView post →10. Underrated game- Flinthook. Part of the roguelite boom in the wake of Isaac and Gungeon, it followed the formula in a lot of ways but included Bionic Commando-style traversal mechanics that allowed for some creative puzzles. Never really caught on but I enjoyed it.
unlabelledView post →11. Flinthook I feel like I'm one of four people that played this. I quite liked it! fun little roguelite, though I distinctly remember obstacles in the foreground blending in with the background. also, my current banner is from this game!
unlabelledView post →It took 3 tries (glad I announced this stream as "experimental" :flan_guns:), but I got to show 40 minutes of #Flinthook on stream and really love this game! :flan_hearts: It's now uploaded at https://youtu.be/b6I0yyvJUWE! Highlights: - space meat at 32:42 (must be a variation on the famously delicious wall chicken :flan_aww:) - learning from Gwarlock that I need to "eat more books" (24:42) - a profound moment of self-reflection after killing 3 pufferfish on #OpenBSD... (23:44) #PlayOnBSD
