most all is well
the only thing I couldn't stand was that jumping is often delayed from the time I hit the spacebar.. ..usually when I just start walking or if I change direction. Only when I stood still could I accurately predict a jump while in the clouds. also, when I released the left/right keys he slid just a bit. that's ok, but it also affected the jump command. It made navagating the clouds unnecessarily difficult, especially since he can't die or isn't penalized by time.
...the time limit ideas is good...but I didn't know how to script a life system...it's something I can look foward to learning...
A good, simple platformer.
Contains most of the elements of early platform games. You have, obviously, grasped actionscript well. Now you just need polishing. Some work on the jumping, some complex actions, and some 'special' items, and you'll have great material. Dare I say a script, also? Almost no games on NG (Or anywhere) have one nowadays, but hey...maybe if I suggest early =D
...Most of the script is easy flowing and pretty straight foward...however I ran into areas where I didn't know how to code certain things...for example a life system...
an impressive game
the game was quite impressive and reminded me alot of Mckids on the Nes. only things that need improving is the way the main character moves. other than that good job
indeed...I'll know what to improve if I decide to make another game...responsive controlls seemt to be an issue.
A very good first attempt at a game
~The good~
Graphics were really well done, just like the rest if your flashes. It's also nice of you to make something more serious, not just diareah splirting everywhere. The retro music was also done very well, really reminded me of games in the arcades or the SNES.
~The bad~
The controls felt very sketchy, and it's hard to just walk around. Also, I wish you made more ways of killing enemies, because it's really hard to walk around, let alone jump on enemies. This game is also filled with glitches, like if you get hurt, you start blinking for quite a long time.
Overall, a very good first attempt at a game, but it does have glitches to it. I hope this review was helpful!
4/5

very few actual glitches in the game...the blinking was part of the life system that I developed so you knew when you took damage, but I failed to get it working properly so I scrapped it...
the physics engine I used was hard to deal with, I wont be using it again based on user responces...
thanks for the review...
Good work
i didn't enjoy this game too much beacsue i could always find better games than this in other game websites or i could just play real games made by professionals. BUT! This game is still a exellent game made in flash media. I tried to make a simple platform game and i couldn't even managed to make that. So overall this is not a bad game in flash. This is much more better than the other flash you made spirit of samurai however i am not saying spirit of samurai was rubbish i am saying it was way too short. (Still, nice graphics and sound effects.) Exellent, good job. By the way, I'm looking forward to your longer samurai you were talking about.
umm thanks...I guess...
this was a first shot at a game...it turned out alright...a lot is to be desired from this game, I know...
working on other stuff now...
thanks for the review...
