Reviews for Shotgun Orc

[davii2]

OK, but can be better

The glarring weakness of this game is the inability to do more than one action at once. You cannot jump right before shooting or right after shooting, this delay may cost you many lifepoints because while you are shooting a bowling ball is coming at you but you cannot avoid it because of the delay. If you could design it so that you can do more than one action at once like many games on here give you the option of the score would be higher, but with this weakness this is only an average game at best.

Fun

It was pretty entertaining and i played it a few times... But there were some problems that I think if they were fixed would make the game much better

1) When you get hit by a bowling ball, it should only take away 1 heart, not 2 or sometimes 3

2) When you die or go to the next level, your ammo should automatically be reloaded, because if you die with one bullet left, then its sometimes pretty hard not to lose some hearts when you come back.

Good but man was it hard.

It was fun but when you got near 3 guys at a time you lose three live. If it was easy it would of been hell of fun just blastin all the gay humans and faggy elves.

Well-implemented, but not fun.

Graphics: Decently detailed and animated cartoon characters. Nice backgrounds. Could be more stylized, and maybe better-looking somehow in a way I can't quite describe, but has to do with aesthetics and artistic design, not implementation or Flash itself.

Style: An orc with a shotgun in a side-scrolling brawl. Not as flashy as a capcom beat-em-up, not as iconic as Dad n' Me. Pretty much yet another mideval Flash cartoony game.

Sound: Lackluster trumpets and drums bleat out dull pseudo-european midevial muzzak. Competent battle sound effects from some sound collection somewhere.

Violence: You blow the face off of a wizard, and his skull flops to the ground amid the hamburger that used to be his head. Around here at Newgrounds, that's not quite even a 9.

Interactivity: Frustrating, floaty control that you can't rely on, mized with devestatingly effective enemies you can't predict. But I've played much less playable games in Flash.

Humor: Some of the animations are kinda funny. I'm a little disapointed that more fun wasn't had with the crazy concept of an orc with a shotgun. :)

Overall: For all the spit and polish that went into this game, it's just not that fun. Below average. Nice try, though. Next time, try to work on making the gameplay a little bit deeper. give the player some options, and make it easy to execute them, rather than your current gameplay dynamic which seems to be to throw a bunch of obstacles at the player that only have one possible solution each.
