YOU STILL CAN'T SHOOT THE DOG!

But I dun really care. Great conversion, and great game. 9/10.

Good, but flawed.

The AUTHOR tips and Review:

Got a nice challenge to it after round 6, very fun to play. Good difficulty curve, but once I got 5 birds I WON the round, even though the blue bar under the HIT meter had the length of 6 ducks? Correct me if I'm wrong, but I believe that the blue bar was originally there to indicate the duck requirement. Also, once I reached a double digit round number (I got a bit bored at Round 13 and stopped), the round indicator said R=1. Allow it to display double digir numbers, too. An extra idea is to give the player a continue at 100K, 200K, 350K, 500K, 750K, and Overload (1M), with which they can continue the game if they lose. You can hold as many as you want at a time and are each displayed as light gun (the things you shoot with in the original Duck Hunt) icons (which *HAVE* to be pixelated
or the classic feel of the game will lower) I point out and put in detail only the bad things in reviews, because if we'd put the good things forward and the bad in the background, I obviously wouldn't help you much. So don't worry about lotsa SPAGHE-- criticism.

The PLAYER tips: (if you're gonna rate this review lower because this part got nothing to do w/ REVIEWING, ignore it, because it's not a part of the review. If you were going to up-vote the review cuz of this part of it because it's helpful to players, go ahead! :D)
1. You have got enough time to wait for a duck to come to your cursor in levels where it's too hard to follow the duck. Look where it will bounce to and place your cursor. Wait for the duck and shoot. BOOM HEADSHOT!! Sorry, couldn't resist.
2. Want blood? MORE blood? You wanna DROWN in blood? Well, at round 1, every hit duck drops 4 blood particles to the ground. Which is noobishly few. But for every round that you increase, 4 more particles a hit are dropped. I bet that round 10 and up will satisfy your blood needs. If you want MORE MOOORE blood, you can 'overkill' your enemy by shooting him while he's falling into the grass. This gives the normal blood dose for the corrsponding round again. The reason you should actually AIM for getting blood all over the lawn (but behind the grass, so you can't see it), is that you get 1 bonus point for every drop of blood that touches the ground. Yes, I hear you say: 'JUST OOOO1111NNNNNEEEEE1111???? OOOOMMMGGGG!', and yes, in the earlier levels, the will barely be a difference. But later on in the game, the ducks can drop 40 drops (R=10), or even 80 drops for the pros! (R=20[!]) And you can triple that amount by overkilling them! What would you do if for every drop of blood you lose, you get 1 cent?

P.S.: Dang, I'm not even close to reaching the 3,6K character limit all in a constructive review. I guess that's impossible to do without spamming anyway. OK, OK if the game was bigger I would provide a WALKTHROUGH for it here if I wanted, but that would be too BIG and I would stray to far from the subject of reviewing. No, they just had to add a limit like this. Well, I'm kinda glad they did add a limit high enough, otherwise my post would've stopped before I could finish this se--

<character limit exceeded>

Cool

I'd play this over COD anyday! Not really, but nice remake.

nice remake

This brings back memories. Although I don't remember the ducks making *glass break* sound when falling, I found that kinda annoying. But you seemed to have all the other originals sounds so good job on that. Thanks for the trip on the memory lane but this just isn't the same without my trusty gun. With mouse it's a bit too easy.

its great

all the sound effects of the game
the same graphics
and more awesomness

its amazing man..respect
