"Boring"

date: March 23, 2008

You just run and slash, then die eventually when the enemies spam attacks, make the shield stun them at least.

Author's Response:

Good idea about the shield stunning. I'll keep that in mind for the sequel...

"Great"

date: March 23, 2008

I really like the way the story is being told, great graphics, good music. My only complain would be that it was too easy, since you could just hold the a button a run, but however later on I discovered that it got hardere, especially with the spiders in the cave :) So that's a 10/10

Author's Response:

Thanks a lot!
Yeah, I wanted the game to be very easy at first and get gradually harder. Some think that I didnt succeed in that, and others do. I think I can still improve a lot regarding combat and storytelling, but thank you so much for the review, high score and for liking the game :)

"Great Game"

date: March 23, 2008

There were only a few minor complaints about this game. My big and practically only one was what "SensitiveJerk" pointed out. When multiple enemies attack, there'll be times where you can't get out of it and have to die. The last thing was that it felt a bit repetitive after a good while, but that's how most games feel. Everything else was flawless, the music blended in perfectly. Good job!

Wow, thanks a lot. Glad you liked it!

"Nice music"

by: Eropan
date: March 23, 2008

I agree with the previous review that the music was awesome. No, it was GREAT!!! Anyway, despite the fact that I died on my first try on the very first mission, I would still say that it was too easy. I learned that I can hold the "a" key and just run around killing enemies.

May 4, 2008

Author's Response:

Yeah, the damn "a" key again. The main thought I had while making this game was not to make it too hard, but I guess I made it a bit too easy, or rather a bit too unbalanced. Well, Im glad you liked the game and hopefully I can improve on the sequel...

"Damn, I liked it."

date: March 23, 2008

The music was badass, let me just say that first and foremost.

Other than a little problem of enemies ganging up and not giving any opening (especially those stump dudes who attack twice, you can't attack without being hit...) and a few glitchy things, the game is pretty straightforward. I enjoyed it tons.

If you make a sequel or a continuation, ADD THAT MUSIC!

May 4, 2008

Author's Response:

Thank you! Glad you liked it. Yeah there are a few flaws that my poor coding skills just couldnt fix. But I have learned a lot and think that I can improve on them in the sequel. Im not sure if I'll use the same music for the soundtrack, but definitely something similar.

"Decent time waster"

date: March 22, 2008

it was fun and provided some challenge but for the sequel i suggest you create a combo system to liven things up a tad

also the map was kinda pointless as you were only side scrolling... so whats there to navigate?

theres the begining of a great game in here

May 4, 2008

Author's Response:

Yeah the map was just there for interest's sake. I dunno, I kinda like it :)
The sequle is underway and will have many improvements and new stuff.
Thanks for the review!

"sequel please"

date: March 22, 2008

i liked the game and the story line was really good when and if you make a sequel which you kind of have to. you should add upgrades, and maybe a way to change weapons.

"NOT ENOUGH FORCLOSURE!!!"

date: March 22, 2008

you're leaving it TOO wide open for a sequel. WAAAAAAAAAY TO WIDE OPEN!!! LIKE ARG!!!

If you do make a sequel, it'd be cool to pick and choose weapons, upgrade armor, ETC.

But at the game at hand, it was very good. The side scrolling was quite good, and it catered to my preferences. my only peeve is the attacking while crouched. could it be something along the lines of stabbing, and it being a rather weak attack. or at least be able to move while you're shielding yourself. something along those lines

other than that, kudos.

May 4, 2008

Author's Response:

Glad you liked it. Initially I made it possible to attack while shielding, but I took it out because the game just became way too easy. Im busy with a sequel at the moment and I've made it possible so that you can stab while shielding, just like you said, :)

I dont know how it will play out yet, let's see...

"Room for improvement"

date: March 22, 2008

It looked nice, really liked the shield. Problem I had with it were that swords reach wasn't long enough, Once I got to the goblin camp the goblin's attack period was in such away that I never had time to attack, even with the quick attack. Also the quick attack swould have been faster. Has potential though.

May 4, 2008

Author's Response:

You have some good points. I'll try to improve on them for the sequel. Glad you liked the game and thanks for the review!
