Winter is getting closer and Hedgehog is wandering through the forest frantically gathering all he can.
Help Hedgehog to load up by tapping on tiles to see what they contain - uncover two the same to collect them!
This is more than a memory game however - more tiles pop-up from the bottom of the pile, and there are all kind of specials to help you along the way. Keep the pile clear, and earn a huge bonus at the end of the level!
Use an extractor program such as WinZip or Stuffit Expander to get at the Hedgehog files. Install the game by double-clicking the .prc file, which opens the Palm Install Tool program.
Use the HotSync button as usual to install the game onto your handheld. If you have a handheld with an expansion card, you can then move the game over to it. Do this before you register the game!
Now run Hedgehog and tap the screen to play the game!
If you've got any queries about Hedgehog or the registration process, first check out our knowledge base on our website (you must be connected to the internet to access this). If this doesn't help, get in touch with us at support@astraware.com. If you've got any questions (or suggestions, we love those) about the game itself, please get in touch with us at the email address at the top of this page.
Tap the tiles to turn them over and reveal the symbol underneath. Match two tiles with the same symbol, and the tiles will be removed form the board.
As you play, the timer bar at the bottom of the screen will fill up. Once it reaches the end, a new row of tiles will appear at the bottom, pushing the current tiles upwards - don't let the tiles reach the top of the board, or it's game over!
To speed up the rate at which new rows are added, you can tap and hold the stylus on the timer bar to speed up the rate at which it fills (ideal if you have no available moves!). Optionally, there is a setting in the Game Settings form which allows you to change the way this works, so that only a single tap is required to fill the timer bar and add a new row immediately.
Multiple consecutive matches, with no breaks between them earn bonus points - the more matches you can make in a row, the higher the bonus for each becomes!
Use your special tiles wisely! Each has it's own effect, and can help lengthen a run of matches if used right
Tap the Hedgehog to see him wave!
From the Game Settings menu item, it is possible to alter several of the game options.
Background: The Background option controls whether or not to show the background image. On slower devices, this may result in a performance increase.
Animation: The Animation option controls whether all the animation effects occur in the game. Turning this option off will disable some of the animations, and may increase performance if you are experiencing sluggish gameplay
Tap to fill instantly: By default, this option is disabled, and normally you can tap and hold the sylus on the timer bar to fill it quickly, adding a new row without having to wait as long. Enabling this option allows you to instead tap once on the timer bar, filling it immediately and adding the new row with no delay at all.
In Demo form, you can play 10 games of Hedgehog for free, as you decide whether you like it or not. After these games are up, the program will display a short message reminding you to register each time you play!
If you beam a demo to someone else, and they also like the game, then they can register it either by purchasing a copy from a local store or by purchasing online.
For those that like the speed and convenience of buying via the internet, when you register for the game you'll get a code which will unlock the game and remain valid for future upgrades. Go to the web page at http://www.astraware.com/palm/hedgehog/ for more details.
You'll need to know your HotSync ID which you can find by running Hedgehog, opening the menus, and selecting the 'Register...' option. Your HotSync ID
will be filled in for you below.
When you register, Astraware will generate a key based on your ID, which will normally be sent out by email within 48 hours of you registering.
When you receive your key, go to the same register option, and enter the key into the space provided.
