Pathetic
You just run and shot at robots whit no idea why.
The same thing after every stage.
Reviews for "Galaxy Fighter"
okey....
graphics look good
you cant dodge a bullet
you cant defend yourself properly with close combat
you cant buy upgrades or health or ammo
but anyway looks good for first try ^^
Amazing....ly bad
Im going to go into a VERY in depth review of the first few levels, which go beyond the fourth weapon obtainable.
Graphics: The only good point about the game is the graphics, and even then, It's not even that impressive. The characters Are 3D, but only 3D sprites, since they only have 8 turning directions. at firs the characters just look like they were rejects of the next megaman game, but when the mechs came out it made worth an honerable mention.
Story: The story as far as I can tell has nothing to do with this game's gameplay so it doesnt need a review. its the equivalent to tekken's story.
Sound: Well, the lazers all pretty much sound the same, there are a few variations but not really much.
the music itself cant really be paid attention to, because there isnt, as far as i can tell, a way to pause and just listen to it, and even so, its not something memorable. Then again, i cant really get myself to play it enough for it to even have a chance to try and prove me wrong.
Gameplay: Boy you're fucked now. Alright, the basic rundown of the game is simple, run and gun in a small enviroment, but there are many issues with this, in this game.
The first problem you'll come across is that the enemies must have been trained experts in sniping, because they can shoot you, WHEN THEY ARE LOOKING THE OTHER WAY. Let's not neglect to mention that 85% of the time -and thats underestimating it- You will get hit from a shot.
The second problem with this, is that the weapon choice is dull at best.
first we got a little pea shooter and a more powerful rifle, with a sword that is useless because it does just as much, if not less than the infinite ammo pistol you are given, with none of the range.
Now you may be thinking: "hmm, what are the other 2 weapons?"
Well, the third weapon you get, you would assume some kind of spread weapon, but no, its another, more powerful version of the same 2 guns, with more damage added to it. the bullet graphic doesnt really look different either, its just a larger white/blue line. The fourth weapon again, is just another damage upgrade, not some kind of awesome multi-hitting beast you would think the BEST WEAPON would be.
Putting that aside, if you could put something like only having practically one gun the entire game aside, The Next problem is power-ups.
yes, they are in the game, so dont worry, those 99% accuracy bots' damage to you can be replenished. The only problem is, what's in the box is completely random, and when you need hp most, it just wont show up. instead youll get the crappiest gun's ammo when you already have 500 shots for it, which is an exaggeration but you get my point.
The final flaw I can even bring up, are slow spawning, long lasting waves.
basically it feels like an eternity as you kill one bot, then watch another one slowly crawl into the map from a hole. and the numbers they have against you are astounding.
You will easily find yourself just holding the mouse button and standing still (no point to dodge when enemies rarely miss) untill you win, many painstaking minutes later.
I really feel bad for arcade bomb for getting this, I really do.
The only advice i can give, is play a bunch of shooting games, and see how fast paced they are, see the variety of weapons, while done to death, are still fun.
Most importantly, oh creator of this flash, remember that graphics do not equal fun, just as games about the bible arent fun
I only hope you remake this game with fun in mind, or Make a simpler graphic game, with kick-ass gameplay.
Good luck.
meh
it was fun ofr a all of 3 minutes
You Expected this score
The overall gameplay was extremely easy, ended too quickly and pointless, as everyone else that art was brilliant, though your games entire premise was just not upto par with the rest of the visuals, next time I suggest making a better game before working on the visuals so throughly.
Thanks
