Reviews for "Kingdom of Machines"
It's alright...
The graphics were good and all, but there is no story to really pull you into the gameplay. The zelda games were great because they started you out in normal roles in society (figuratively speaking) and drew you out through minor occurences that led up to larger scaled combat. Not being rude, but you kinda jumped the gun on that and sent anyone who played straight into the fire. Another thing was that you really couldn't be pulled in by your surroundings. While i agree that generated maps are cool, they take away a certain aspect of the game that is crucial to the player. And it left a redundancy in the gameplay because if you had been to one map, you already knew what to expect. After that it just gets repetitive. I have nothing much to say about the weapons except that most hits didnt register towards killing opponents. All in all, it has the looks and makings of a great rpg, but it could go so much further.
S'all right
I agree with skelooth there are mixed feelings, i liked zelda and link but this shows little "growing power" so to speak. Although i made it throught most of the game i decided it wasnt worth my time to finish it, but a number two with a few improvments could turn some heads if done properly
Mixed feelings
I have some very mixed feelings about this game, on one hand I like it a lot because it has potentially good game play and potentially a feeling of accomplishment. On the other hand the collision detection was REALLY bad, the sound was bad, the guns were all identical, and there was no feeling of 'growing in power'.
Despite playing it a few times I did not finish it, and have no desire too because it doesn't 'pull me in'. I think it would have if you could upgrade your weapons to do more damage or get different types of guns or something. Yes I know there was a grenade launcher but it felt very "blah", I only really used the guns for opening doors, not fighting enemies.
Also, a big thing is: There is NO POINT in randomly generating those maps. They are all ridiculously similiar, and it is not worth the slight chance of not being able to finish the game.
So, that's my review. Good job otherwise.
Hmm.
This game seems alright, I didn't finish it though.
I think the design was great, but I just couldn't get "drawn in" to it. Maybe you could make it a little flashier, or give it a little bit faster pace?
Great work on the flash though.
