I want to thank EVERY SINGLE PERSON who emailed me supporting Bob from the day he was released unto the world early 2005, right up until the release of this remake; also not forgetting those who've played, commented and voted for it here on NG. You're the reason this game exists, so give yourselves a pat on the back!

I hope you all enjoy playing the game as much as I enjoyed (re)making it, and be sure to comment and let me know what you think! I do try to reply to everyone who posts a coherent comment.

Also, if you liked the game and think it's worth a buck or two, please go ahead and click on the 'Donate' link in the title menu, or the advertisement in the preloader, and help feed a starving indie game designer :D

Bob rules all!!

Never played the original Barbarian Bob, but I like this version alot. I heard the original had a lot of technical problems that made it more.... challenging. While this version still has several bugs in it they weren't enough to detract from the overall enjoyable experience I had with it.

The graphics/art weren't the most complex I've seen, but they did an adequate job, and had the affect of making the characters more endearing. More facial expressions could help to flesh out a very 2 dimensional game into something more, though.

The controls, while basic, were easy to use. Collision detection, on the other hand, needed to be tighten up a bit - you could be standing some distance from your opponent and still kill him without touching them with your sword.

The music was great. I like it and I thought it fit the game very well; and it really stood out among many of the flash games I have played on NG - in a very good way.

Keep up the good work, Skribble-Style and co.

This is just terrible!

You can't even move without a bug dammit!
I would give it a -7, but I can't.
