Reviews for "Barbarian Bob [Remake]"

Are you kidding me?

I've now beaten the game 3 times without dying.. except a glitch occurs at the end whenever I beat it without dying where the rain stops.. for 2 seconds.. then starts right back up and the lightning continues and that's where it stays.. for a long time..

Other than that though I really have no complaints. It was a fun and decent game that just takes a little getting used to. At least it's better than FUi2 and the medals are easier than Portal Defenders. Also, for the got all medals achievement: Do I have to get all the medals while keeping the same game open (don't close the window) or will it register once I have all the medals but that? Because I noticed when I close the window all the IN GAME achievements reset. Let me know.

But ya, good game, could fix it up a little but really I have nothing to complain about. Graphics were good, backgrounds cool, bosses fun (the first few times you beat them) and it had a nice setup to it. I liked the progression of levels and the 3 different types of enemies. It made well for a simple hit and block scroller. Keep it up man, just work on the glitches before releasing it.

Glad you enjoyed the game, sir! Really sorry about the glitches, but unfortunately Flash can give different results to different people, depending on a lot of different variables. I bug tested pretty vigorously, but I guess it goes to show that even when you think you've gotten all the bugs, there are probably a lot more because people have unique ways of playing games and achieving certain conditions.

The game SHOULD check the NG medal server and update the medals in game to show what you've gotten so far, but I will add this to the list of things to check.

Much appreciated review!

Ehh

Good game....no story line though....It would probably be better with a little more story to it and some combos with the sword....nice game keep up the god work....

Skribble-Style responds:

I -will- keep up the god work! >:D

MUHUHUHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!

p.s. Glad you liked the game despite the lack of story you would have liked. I didn't really want to spend too much time on the story side of things, as Bob was always meant to be a faceless warrior; which is why he doesn't talk or change his expression.

Good game.

The only thing is most medals don't work.
But good gameplay.

Bug update

Great game! It's a bit of a random story, but the gameplay is fun. "Hack and slash" games really aren't my cup of tea, though I found this rather entertaining. The secrets were a bit obvious, though, at least after you figured out how to activate at least one.

A list of bugs I encountered:
-In the first area (I think >_>), after I died for the first time (first playthrough), the invincibility period lasted far longer than it's supposed to. I finished off two baddies before it ended. It hasn't happened since, though.
-Twice now, I've been struck while I've been using my shield. Once with a sword, and once by an arrow. Sadly, the latter ruined my chances at the "InvinciBob" medal towards the very end of the last stage :(
-When I first grabbed the bow and it's instruction box showed up, Bob was a bit too far right, and half of the instructions were offscreen. I managed to figure the rest out with a bit of experimenting, though.

That's all I found. Keep up the good work! <insert thumbs up here>

ugh!

It was pretty good but i didnt play it long cuz i couldnt stand the controls. And whenever I changed the controls anything i pushed would just pause it. Other than that the game was alright.
