Customer Reviews
Inspirational and unique!
Hi, How Are You is a 3D platformer that builds on a simple concept - move your character through the maze-like levels, light up all the panels, and find the exit before time runs out. What makes this game truly stand out is the flawless integration - or rather, embodiment - of the music, artwork, and ideas of American indie musician/artist Daniel Johnston. It's as if Johnston's mind was concretized into an iPhone game. His work lends a very commendable art style to the app, making it a real visual and aural treat! A MUST BUY. It's on sale now, don't wait to get it!
While you read this, make sure the app is downloading!
Absolutely wonderful app! Great music and gameplay that keeps you coming back to win the gold trophy's. I've downloaded a lot of apps but this one for sure is staying on my iPod
Pros:
Good Music
Full 3D Graphics
2 controls, so if your not feeling like tilting yourway through, you can use the virtual d-pad
You can unlock the artwork of Daniel Johnston
Its got openfeint so even when you have all the gold, you'll probably still come back to finish off the achievements
Cons:
I didn't really understand the story a little, until I looked up Johnston, and while some my see this as a con its really more of a pro because you find out about someone very intresting that I had never heard of before.
Overall: Great game that is crazy looking at first but turns out to be amazingly awesometastic!
Unique and fun!
I really like the game's artwork. It is certainly unique, with wonderful colors. Gameplay controls are very well done, making your movement fairly easy to control. There are a lot of levels, a bunch of achievements, and a timer that keeps you working hard on each level. It's nice, though, that you can still progress through the levels even if you don't meet the time constraint, but does make for great replayability if you want to get the best score. Overall, really great game!
