Uhm..
How bout Color, More Enemies, Better environments, music, a storyline AND a RESTART button.
Reviews for "Neku Platformer"
Pretty good
This could be really good with a little work,like enemies or powerups and stuff like that
Ok.
Ok, well, i dunno if this gets blammed but hey, yer good. Try to improve things about Points, respawning and bonuses (like super jump). BTW, it's ok.
Needs Lots of Work
Hey.
It seems more like a test of sorts or a _very_ early work in progress, and appears to be unfinished.
1). The controls were intuitive, as many platform games use the same controls. However, in-game instructions would be nice.
2). Of course, the need for audio goes without saying. (-:
3). You seem to have mixed art. The player's character is pixel art, yet most everything else seems to be vector art. Stick to one type of art so the game has a consistent look.
4). Consider using a custom made character instead of ripped sprites. If you can't draw, there's freeware art out there. Furthermore, you can always use the artwork of others to get ideas (which is what I do).
^_^
5). Needs a background instead of plain white.
6). Include a title screen with a Start and Help/Instructions menu items, and perhaps include an Options item (for muting future audio and/or remapping controls.) This is really how I can tell you're still working on it - your game goes _straight_ to the gameplay. :-)
7). You seem to have sloped ground in the game. Figure out how to make your character traverse it smoothly without having to jump, otherwise, remove it.
8). I was on the spinning platform, and the character does not move with the platform, which should be happening.
9). When the game ends, include some transition; don't just say "Fail". VERY user unfriendly. Also, allow the player to restart play again, instead of having to reload the Flash.
10). Include a HUD once you have your idea fully developed.
11). Don't forget to include some sort of pause ability in your final version. If you plan on a lengthy game, a save feature would be very user friendly as well.
12). I seemed to have found some "invisible" platforms. I fell off of them, then I kept falling until I fell off the screen, lol.
That's all I can think off of the top of my head.
Still lots of work to be done; hope you have a complete, fully functional, and fun game. Platformers are a good genre, in my opinion.
Good skill on your game.
