Score: 7
"Good"
date: October 3, 2007
The good parts: I think the graphics were okay. The background looked pretty good (especially the sky in the desert level) and the things on the foreground looked alright too. Also, it´s very nice that this game has a save option. I didn´t have to start over from the beginning now in case I got stuck or anything, that was good. What kind of suprised me in a positive way was that I found very few bugs. I expected a lot of things wouldn´t work properly, but this wasn´t the case.
The bad parts: I didn´t found my bugs like I just said. But sadly I found one very big one. I got stuck in the story mody at the second boss :( During the conversation the screen suddenly turned black, the music kept playing and nothing else happened. I reloaded my game, tried for a second time and again the screen turned black. You should take a look at this. Also, I think you might get stuck if you don´t have any ammo in a stage where you have to kill all enemies or destroy some of those platforms. It didn´t happen to me, luckily, but it would be a shame if you have to quit your game for that. You should allow us to go back to the shop or make the handgun have unlimited ammo. Another bad point was that the normal enemies were way too easy to defeat. Those rocks and mushrooms only moved up and down and from the right the left a little, they didn´t seem to be attacking or anything. I was hit only once by them and my only concern in the game was my ammo amount. So try to make the enemies stronger.
Overall 7 out of 10, 3 out of 5. I think it was quite an enjoyable game, but it could still use some improvement. I hope you can fix that stuff at level 2´s boss, cause it kinda ruined the game for me :(

Thanks for the reveiw. I'm glad you liked the background because I spent a lot time making the backgrounds look good. I added the save feature as I didn't in my other games and wanted to test it out and it works fine and is good feature.
The bug that you found on the second boss conversation, I am not sure what caused it, I checked my code in the fla but still can't find the error. I will look into it and try to fix it and make sure that this doesn't happen with any of my other games.
I included the limited ammo because I just didn't want the player to just shoot at things carelessly so if he/she didn't have any ammo left, it's their fault completely but I guess I could add go back to shop or something like that. I will improve the enemies next time.
Thanks again for the thorough review :)
