Reviews for "When Pigs Fly"
Frustrating but mildly addicting.
When I first saw this I thought it was going to be a 'cute' game- Y'know, easy, nice graphics. A calm down game. I didn't expected it to be frustrating to the point of wanting to find pig and murder it.
The music is nice- it suits the game well, isn't irratating and you can mute it ( By pressing M, for those who missed it, but it also turns off the rest of the sound, so perhaps a serperate mute for the music might be appreciated by some?). Graphics work- a nice retro feel, doesn't hurt the eyes too much and can't really bore you. The little touches like the submarine were nice, I would of liked to see more- maybe sleeping beasts, miners, sparkling little gems- something to look at while you calm down after attempting the same bit for the umpteenth time. I would of really enjoyed your game if not for it's... irratating lack of controls and plain..evilness. Why can't a pig with wings walk? It wasn't that it mucked up the game, it just was annoying. And while I think you did right by making it so that each square was a save point, check points mid square would of been nice- to have to repeat the same lava pit, over and over and over (repeat this couple more times to get the idea) just to get impaled was annoying. Maybe some health bars for the wings? While I like the fact you can't actually die, getting knocked back to the beginnging of a square 'cus you bumped your wings made me scream. It was realistic yes- bashing your wings into cave wall can't be good for them, but instant failure? A little harsh.
However... At least is was playable. It kept you wanting to beat and play it, even if it did piss you off royaly sometimes as the pig yet again crashed into the wall. Your controls need improving ( being able to just walk would be useful, and perhaps slowing down the rise/fall speed so hovering is easier to acheive). I like the fact you didn't use proper pig noises, because even while your's wasn't realistic it wasn't as annoying as a real pig grunt/oink could have been. And I thankyou for making it so you can save and come back- I don't really see this as a complete it all in one go game. Playable and quite enjoyable, but I'm not sure if I'd ever want to play it again as entertainment or to relax, nor would I tell my friends about it.
:D FUN!
that was fun game! Difficult, but Fun! Nice job man, and I agree with SaruWaza. Once again nice job. ^^
No....No

That's how this game feels like. It's more a game of chance, rather than a game of challenge. The controls aren't precise. To be honest, they're shitty. If the controls were better...
Ah, the music is ok. Pretty basic song, but catchy. It's a pretty long game... so you should've put a switch to turn the music off and on.
