Reviews for "Grandpa RPG"

Um....?

Not really that good, graphics could be improved, music would be very nice, add a point to the game, I.E. you're trying to take over the world and be papa ruler or something, otherwise it's something to pass the time.

Damn...

The Good :
Well, effort so 2 points as it is a first game.

The Bad :
Poorly drawn but can be improved !
What the hell...you easily die...without even a chance to fight back.
One hit from the enemy and you get negative health in return.
The energy easily depletes.
Attacking costs 20 energy per hit.
He walks so slow.
Running immediately
That's not even a jump ! it's like a girly jump
Only punching..why not add kicking or combos
You start off with only 1 point per each stat...
No use for up and down arrow keys... only goes forward and backward..
Does the save feature really work...
And ADD a LOAD feature !

Overall, I don't like the game but this can be improved REALLY it can !!

Wadukadoo responds:

yes the save feture works, just make sure you do it befor you die other wise you will end up at the last point you saved.

if you walk around a little your stinima will get to lvl 2 and punching will only take 10. it dosenttake long before you foget about the energy feture

Nice try! GREAT IDEA!

Wow this game is just AWESOME!!!!
I mean, well......yeah it's pretty horrible, but the IDEA IS JUST SO COOL!!!!
You got an old guy that can do everything we can do - but he's OLD so he tires easily. AWESOME! Your action script skills are pretty good as others have pointed out and the idea's original! I don't really give a damn about the graphics (which fit very well with the general style of things), but you do need to get some order into this mess!

It seems the only way to travel is via the map button and once you do you either some monster kills ya or get to a training facility which ...um..kills ya. Even worse, there doesn't seem to be any kind of GOAL to the game.
What are you supposed to do? Where are you supposed to go?
Make a specific goal and balance the difficulty - enemies kill you almost instantly and leveling seems to take forever!

You've got some great idea's here like the map navigation system and the old dude's energy bar. Also loved how each specific stat went up in accordance with you actions - but you need to build an actual game around these elements or they won't be worth spit.
First of all, why not make a simpler game - with a specific goal (perhaps a platformer instead of an RPG) with the same elements, old dude that has to rest every once in a while. Also, try giving him simpler tasks than killing monsters.
How about just shopping, crossing the street, going up stairs...the options are limitless. Imagine a game were you have to leave your house buy some groceries and get back...since you're old you'll have to rest on benches strewn all across the sidewalks - but you can't take too long or night will fall and you'll get mugged!
I don't know - just brainstorming here - think of anything!!!

Basically what I'm saying is cool idea, but since you've tried to implement so many elements at once on your first game - it came out kinda messy.
Try to simplify things on your next try and you'll be learning how to make your games better as you keep making them.
It's a shame a great game like this gets such low scores just because you're only starting out and you don't have much experience.

If you need any more ideas\advice with the game you're welcome to message me. Thanks a lot from the game and hope to see more from you soon!

Wadukadoo responds:

thanks for not hateing my game i have been working on it for about a month now and have really learned alot about action script while i have been making it. i was thinking about makeing an old lady at you house to tell you to do things and and talk about things to give it more of a point, right now im not really sure how to make it so you beat the game because if i do you could only fight each of the monster stages once and that wouldnt be very good seeing as you need them to train. the reason some of the monsters are so strong is that once you do get higher lvs the easier monster become very very easy. the stronger monsters require you to try to hit the buton as fast as youcan adding a little action to the game. which is an rpg may i add and most rpg's are slower game play.

but anyway thanks for kinda liking it.

not bad

pretty good

Thiswas blammed.

When a game is blammed, don't resubmit and hope for a better score. It doesn't even look like you changed anything, try fixing it up some like adding noise or more of a point to the game instead of just walking around.
