"that was pretty good dawie!"

date: March 17, 2008

yea man, very well made game, and the music was very much well suited for each event, but i gotta say some kind of leveling up system would have been cool, like in that paladin game, or new wepons and armour or something, YA DIG? anyway cant wait for the story to unfold, hope to see you do bigger and better things.
YA DIG!!!

Author's Response:

It seems like everyone wants more moves and an upgrading system. I love the Paladin game. It was great! And yeah man I totally dig, more moves would make this better you are right and I will do that in the future now that I have learned a lot by making The Rise of a Knight. :)
Thanks for the review.

"Great Game"

date: March 19, 2008

this was an awesome game, even though i haven't finished it yet, it has really well made graphics, a good plot and a really well made narrative story. The only thing i thought u could inprove on was the hp regain, the monsters keep rushing everywhere u are except for when ur going to a place. other than that it ws really well balanced and incredibly fun. keep up the good work and i hope to play ur future creations! this deserves 10 stars, o and maybe u can make up some terrain perks and stuff, for example the terrain is the mountain and the super works better there, and the grassland u attack faster. stuff like that, but those are just my suggestions.
NOTE:i think the princess should be dressed in their time
P.S. the monsters should attack slower...

P.P.S. i cant get pass the spider boss that pukes on u from the ceiling...

Author's Response:

Hahaha, yeah a lot of people have hang-ups with how the princess looks. I didnt think her appearance was so important, but boy was I wrong. People have even said they didnt want to play this game because who would want to save such an ugly princess? It makes me laugh, but I definitely understand it and will try to improve on my drawing skills to make hotter women :)

Thanks for the compliments man, Im glad you liked the game so much!

"You Should Make a Series on this"

by: ryu112

I loved this game it had the Hack And Slash elements and Despite the People Below mes impression this game was obviously designed to require skill and not just Mindless Slashing at Mobs of Monsters. I loved the Graphics,the Character Detail could use alittle work tho, the Soundtrack Fit perfectly and the story is Leading into Something Epic.

Overall 11/10 and you should really make a series.

Author's Response:

Thank you so much!
Yeah it was definitely designed to require skill and strategy. I am busy making a sequel and Im keeping everyone's suggestions in mind so that I can improve and make an even better game.

"Wow!!"

date: March 18, 2008

That was GREAT!!! it was a bit short, but played a good while!
The only thing, i can think of to help it is a PAUSE button... The Bosses, were good, tough, the orge was obviously the best! a touch repetative, Still, this is pretty good, and has a PLOT haha, Keep up the Great work!
Waiting for more to come from you

Thank you very much!
Unfortunately my coding capabilities are not good enough to make a pause button yet. I have tried out some pause and save tutorials, but not too much. I still have to learn a lot regarding programming, and those two things are high on my list. Thanks again!

"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.

"Wow"

date: March 17, 2008

This game is amazing 5 reasons why. 1. The guard looks like a total stud with that armor. 2. The sound effects when you hit enemies or block. 3. Not to easy, but not to hard. 4. The music choices were stunning. 5. The special attack comes in handy alot of times. Only one problem though, when you blocking, you can just stay blocking for like an hour till your health gets back up.

March 17, 2008

Author's Response:

Thank you very much!
Im glad you liked it :)

About the blocking: This game was meant to be quite forgiving to the player and help him along the way. A lot of people have said that this game is way too easy. Maybe I did make it too easy, but that was the aim anyway. It is true that you can just sit there and shield your enemies forever while waiting for your health to recharge, but I think the punishment for doing that would be that its quite boring to do that, and I think that is a justifiable punishment to the player.

Thank you for your comments and its awesome that you found this amazing :)

"Good Game"

Great game in my opinion, I love the hack and slash games, good graphics, good gameplay. It was a bit difficult at some parts to attack and block at the appropriate time, but I enjoyed it.

"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

May 4, 2008

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 :)

"dude"

date: March 18, 2008

dude like the game was hard but fun after a while. is there going to be a continuation of this game? oh and love the sound track. do you think you could tell me the artist of the music? well anyway lookin forward to the next game.

March 18, 2008

Author's Response:

I made this game with a sequel in mind, so there probably will be a continuation, but I dont know when. I might do some other projects first. The musical artist is MaestroRage. His name appears in the game, in the credits of the game as well as on this very page you are reading right now. Click on his name to view his userpage and other songs. He is great!
