Reviews for "NightStrike"
terrific!
This game is beautiful to look at, to hear, and to play. I hate defense games, but I had a lot of fun with this one. And the effects were awesome, like the rain and the fog. I have enjoyed every one of glaiel's games, because he puts a lot into them. This game is great, although I noticed a little slowdown when a lot of enemies were onscreen, but that's normal for games, so that didn't bother me. I enjoyed this game.
Fantastic
This was an amazing game. When i found out the wind was a factor in the game i was like. "Holy #$%@! That's amazing!" The music was very fitting. The graphics reminded me a lot of Metal Slug. not a bad thing of course. Only problem i had was no mute button. I've gotten to level 43. And, well i'm done for now. But, I don't want to lose my score. I'd rather mute it and do whatever I want. So, that would be the ultimate addition to me. Just curious. How many levels are there?!
clever and fun
a very good "engine", although it is slightly annoying when the wind changes direction and you don't notice it right away and miss your shot. nice graphics, too--the sprite are a bit cartoony, but they work well in context.
the addition of the movable shield was a very nice touch--takes some getting used to simultaneously firing and manipulating it, but adds a whole new level to the game.
the purchasable upgrades are also well-selected and well-balanced, and fun to decide between and use.
a small complaint would be the lack of visibility on some levels. this may be more of a personal preference, but IMHO if making it hard to see were the right way to make a game challenging, then DOOM 3 would have rocked.
this however, is a minor detail. on the whole, an awesome game and one of the best turret defenses on the site.
Pretty good
It would have been nice if the bosses had a health bar, and some kind of variation to them. I gave this a 5/5, but what stops it from being a 10 is the absence of a save system, or a pause option. It also did get boring after a while. Other than that, the game was solid. The combo system was an excellent idea.
