"Superb"

One of the best flash games ive ever played. Like a cross between Contra and Abuse. I think it deserves a much higher score than it has right now but I guess alot of people dont like the difficulty level.

Gameplay is close to perfect, nonvariable jumpheight is the only issue I find worth mentioning. Thankfully the game usually avoids situations which would have you cursing the lack of it. Random bats and archer placements sometimes made for near impossible situations but they do help in making a runthrough different each time so I guess its a tradeoff. Hit detection is as far as I can tell excellent and I only encountered one minor glitch with a downwards moving block.

More variation in music and more detailed graphics would be nice of course. But those are very minor points compared to gameplay, which is what makes this game better than the vast majority.

"Good Design"

This game is nice. It is easy to figure out and fun to play.

My only fault with it is that you do not mention in the control explanation that powerups are limited; the user has to figure that out for themselves.

I got killed while I had the shield up. I wondered what had happened and realized that the shield is aimed where the mouse is aimed; this is a nice little innovation that many other games would not have and gives it another small dimension of challenge.

Overall it was fun and I believe the design could be succesfully used in sequels or similar games. Other than that there was nothing particularly outstanding or memorable, and that is potentially a flaw in the world of Internet gaming. I will never forget Nanaca Crash, but I could easily forget this game.

This Game is o.k. Could have tweaked the graphics a bit for better gaming. But other then that this is an okay game, I expect to see more from you.

"BEST... GAME... EVER."

Oh man, this game is so fun! I love the shield, it's very well done how he holds it over his head at a certain angle and then switches to a different grip when he's pointing it forwards. Not a lot of people will put that kind of effort into putting something extra in. PLUS it only blocked what actually TOUCHED the shield! That was cool. I am pretty sure I had my shield blocking a few things that shouldn't've gone through that did though. Eh, whatever, this game is tops. I am glad I played it!

OMG I cant believe that this game is kinda hard when hard.
I only played normal and hard and finished it...
I got kinda sick from clicking the mouse faster and faster in stage 8 to beat up the last boss. Man Im really tired of this game

"That was my ending?"

There were some things that were frustrating. I think it was 7-1, the first part, with the two spiked platforms going up and down, once you ran under them and you had to go over them, the 2nd one would drag me down and kill me. Made no sense. Frustrated the hell out of me. And the reward for whoever takes the time to play this? A picture of a guy standing on a turret with some blonde.
I'm angry with you.
