Reviews for Raptek Arena Reloaded

Good but tough

There is definitely a problem with the attack reload time. In the first level, it takes two shots to kill some guys, which basically means you take about 4-5 damage whenever you see one, which sucks cause you only have like 30 HP to begin with. On the second round I lasted literally about 15 seconds, killing 3 or 4 guys. Anyways, my point is that when I play a game, I use either easy or normal to get the feel of the controls. I only do hard when I know I am good enough to get somewhere. This game seems to be permanently on hard mode.

I'm about to upload a new version, a little easier, but in the meanwhile: Have you tried the Practice? It's quite useful to learn the controls, and you can't die there :)
Anyway, if you take the warrior and spend all three initial points in ATTACK STRENGTH, you should be able to beat the first level easily (with shield raised!).
Also the wizard, maxed in attack, is a good start, or the Cleric with the special ability maxed... or the Archer with Attack speed!

Or... you can wait for the update! But I don't promise nothing... :)

...

i hate you. i hate this game. Its great tho. its a really good concept, but its too hard. wayyy too hard. the enemies have a huge advantage in being able to attack faster. also, i think u should give more gold each round. its almost useless to have 5 or 10 gold per round. and let the character get more XP points to spend rather than 1 or 2 per round. i didnt even get past the 2nd lvl and im usually good at these games....

Kelemas responds:

As I already said on the other reviews, a new version is on it's way. I'm doing the last test and will upload in less then an hour (I hope).
I have addressed some issues, like the collisions, and recalibrated difficulty.
As for the money and XP: If you play trying to survive, you will get low XP and low money, but if you are able to score some combos, you will gain bonuses that will radically chagne your game experience.
Obviously I suggest you to wait for the update, but if you want you can try to follow the suggestions I gave in other reviews... just in case :)

Thank you anyway!

not great

man this game is fucking hard! give us more fucking potions, gold and fucking less enemies! its like a riot when they are trying to get u! make a new one that way fucking easier

Kelemas responds:

Sorry to hear that.
Game balance is very hard to obtain, and I don't think I made "the perfect thing"...
But alas, I think that if you master the controls in practice mode and find a good timing in combat, you'll change your opinion.
You can go to the page i put up for the game: http://www.circolofantasy.com/arena
There you'll find 4 videos that show a suggestion on how to pass the first levels. Check them out (if you want): I show that it is possible to end the first 3 levels even without using drops!!! :-)

Ok...

At best it is average, it has no real substance to it and the fighting system is flawed to hell. The wizard is the best class because the attacks feel satisfying, this game is just average and tedious.
