Reviews for "The Tickler"

A rockin' feast of destruction.

Exterminate.... EXTERMINATE!!! Love the Tickler.

Good AI, Love that the enemies hold their ground, pull back when being damaged, are out classed/numbered. Lets you use the lightning to keep them bay.

Suggestions:
- Allow the tickler to stand still while holding a key. Say, the space bar. It's easier to dodge the bullets and enemies with a sidestep rather than darting around. And this will let you sit and spin with your claws of doom.
- When only holding one enemy you should be able to use both claws. Might mean the 'high hp/def' type enemies will have to be appropritely buffed.
- Maybe occasional bosses/mini bosses that spawn minions?
- Saves are always a nice feature, but not overtly necessary.
Then it'd be a 10.

Hours of fun! Here's ideas for a sequel!

I loved The Tickler. Instead of just a review where I say "wooo leet bro rox yea!" I want to give some suggestions!

1. Achievements, add them!
2. Change the appearance of your robot as it upgrades!
3. Have a status window included in the upgrade window after each level.
4. Make the enemies HP and DMG numbers in their icons easier to read.
5. Instead of just "Laser +1" or "Crush +1" in the status window I suggested, have it show how much damage just each of these many upgrades do! So players can statagize and try to beat the game focusing mostly on using specific upgrades and skipping others. This would increase the replay value.
6. Add some enemies with more varied looks and sizes.
7. The REALLY fast moving enemies were a bit too annoying.
8. More SFX.
9 Some cut-scenes or even just a LITTLE more plot would be nice.

That's all I have for you! This is by no means a criticism of your game, I really enjoyed it Redux, I just think you could positively kick ass with a sequel if you took some of these ideas into consideration, and I beat your sequel would easily steal another Daily Feature and even some more awards!

So in conclusion, kudos my friend, 8/10. I had a tough morning, and playing this game really cheered me up, as well as writing this review for you. Good luck :3

FUN!

I had a lot of fun on this. I think that being able to create your own robot with preset parts wouldve been fun, but not necesary. I lol'd lots when i got the "electric shield" powerup and ploughed my way through the space invader level XD

Cool Game

I liked it to play
... but after 10 mintues i was getting bored
