If you've been on Pixlbit for a while, you probably know that I like hippos. And today I have a silly hippo game to tell you about! Hippo High Dive is a very simple game. Your purple hippo, wearing a pink leotard, dives off a high board and must try to fall through a series of flaming hoops before landing in a little pool of water. You have three lives. Missing a ring costs one life, though you can get burned twice per live. Use up all three before making it to the pool at the bottom and you lose. And that's all there is to it. Beat a level—that is, a height—and a higher one unlocks. I'm at 450m right now. It has 45 flaming hoops! Thankfully, there is a little indicator at the bottom of the screen to show where the next hoop is coming. Otherwise, this really would be impossible. A few more tries and I'll get it for sure!
I really love the graphics in this game. It looks like colored pencil doodles on notebook paper. The music is a silly little circus-esque ditty. It's very fitting. It's a cool little game and it's free, so you should give it a try. 'Cause hippos are the best, ya know?
I'm not sure if it's still in the App store, but Hasbro had a free Hungry Hungry Hippos game there.
Huh. Not sure how that would work digitally
But cool, of course.
I love the notebook art design, that's really cool!
And who doesn't love hippos??
I dunno. Communists, probably.
goddamn hippo-hating commies!
Isn't flaming hoop something that happens the day after eating hot chicken wings?
Maybe for pandas 
I don't think pandas eat hot chicken wings. :P
Not anymore! 
I dig the art style
It's very clever and the music fits it so well.
This world needs more games featuring hippos!
Amen!
Man, I love pencil doodle drawings. They used that style in the opening sequence and DVD menus for The Life Aquatic film I just saw last night.
It's an underused art style. And I love that it's on notebook paper.
