"Cool game"

date: March 3, 2007

the game is cool, i will give a 4 star rating for him. Everybody complains about the lv 4 but after you play a while it gets easy, lv 5 is more challenger than 4 but is still easy. the bad thing there its so few character status and so few lvs.

"cool"

date: May 2, 2007

Well done. I would've liked to been able to use something like a bow and maybe be able to use the arrow keys. It was nice the way the game auto-paused everytime the mouse went off the screen but it got a little annoying after a while too.

"...On the Contrary"

date: March 7, 2007

... The control scheme is set up very well, it just takes practice and adaptability. I had fun learning it and I actually appreciate games with a little learning curve to them you know?
The AI is really decent, and I loved the scoring system as well as upgrading and choosing weapons... all in all, a very fun piece of work.

"Works for me =)"

date: March 3, 2007

This was a really enjoyable game, the story line was interesting and the gameplay itself was really good - the fact you aimed/moved/and shot all with the mouse made it tricky too, cant wait for the next one =P

"Geez"

date: March 13, 2007

"Great Game."

date: March 6, 2007

This game was pretty good. Nice graphics and I liked the background music. But I got annoyed because while I was playing the game and the pause screen would pop up a lot, and I would have to unpause it and get hit. Is it a glitch or am I doing something to cause it? Anyway, good game.

Author's Response:

Not a glitch. It's something so you don't die by mistake because you're clicking outside of the screen.

I'll put in an option to disable it in the next episode!

"Quite good."

date: July 11, 2008

I just played the demo and I didn't see the link to the full game untill I already made a review on the demo.
The full game was better then the demo and I liked it.

"Good but it won't win the crowd"

by: LukeFS
date: March 3, 2007

The concept is fresh i guess, I don't seem to remember anything similar, Graphics do really well and combined with this rail way of moving it's amazing at first. Then comes the difficulty...

I understand that it is what you intended and the satisfaction from mastering the game should be the reward itself. But It's not what all players want. Some of them just admire graphics and like to see how plot develops. And this one has an interesting plot i'd say, but instead of beeing able to follow it a player is forced to fight an impossible battle.

I guess that is why game makers include an easy difficulty level. For layabouts, yes=) I've played Half life 2 on easy and enyojed it more than being slain in this game =) Thats makes an average player feel like his better than he actually is, and what attracts players

And don't you say that the learning curve would be longer with a keybord included =)

Some minor bugs:
-begin button has a 'hit' field at the bottom, thats almost nothing
-at level 5 the enemies can reach a position where they can shoot parallel to your movement, can never doge
-when you start the first arror you shoot is parallel to your movement (lvl 4 and 5). I wanted to shoot as quickly as i can but first arrow always go flat
-sometimes enemies blocks themselves at the end of the rail

I took me like 40 minutes to finish so I guess it a plus

A hint for 4 level:
after defeating darius and shar, shoot th stone pillars on the botton of the screen, you can destroy them before the golem comes and the the front ones are easy

It's a grat game afterall and I'm happy to see more games that have little filesize and are equally fun (as these with heavy files<=>heavy graphics)

"I dont know man"

date: March 5, 2007

Being constrained to a path way gets boring fast and the upgrades had no singinificant visual impact. Nice idea though, but maybe you should rethink the general gameplay. Plus they game begins to lag more as you play - but maybe its my stupid comp.
