Reviews for Forever Samurai

[Major-Blood]

Loved This

I found it pretty fun, considering I got an essay due Tuesday. lol

I found it kinda awkward when I try to move my mouse in a certain direction, it I do a special move whe all I really wanna do is hack and slash him.

While the special moves were nice, I thought maybe you could add a few more moves.

The upgrades were cool. Love the full-screen attack. Not too many, and not too few, a good balance of upgrades, I think.

Haven't tried hardcore, but it'll be fun from what reviews I've read.

almost the best fighting game ever :O

great game awesome controls...short :(

more games should have these kinds of controls and so action packed

well designed enemies but there should be more(maybe some enemy samurais?)

3 stages are short as hell too

i hope you continue the game or the style of play!

acrazycanadian responds:

Well it's always a good sign when the primary complaint is "We want more!"
Once my current projects are done, more may very well be on its way.

Sucess

You say that you were basically trying to make a "Devil May Cry" style 2D game. You succeeded. The controls are strange at first, but after the first stage, I woudn't have them any other way. The fighting is appropriately fast and furious, the enemy variety is good enough for a game of this length, and the final boss was very impressive. The only flaws I can think of are that it's too easy to simply skip fights and the game could have been a bit longer. Still, this is a great game.

acrazycanadian responds:

Great to hear that the controls worked for you. You never know when you come up with a new system, whether or not anyone is going to "get" it, but when they do it feels pretty good. I'd love to see people start ripping this off if it means more games controlled this way instead of tapping keys to attack.

Can't argue with the flaws you pointed out. Both points are very true, and things I'll be keeping in mind for the future.

acrazycanadian responds:

Keep making 'em I shall. Not right away, perhaps, but you'll see more action games from me some time in the future.

I like the fast pact action sword battles >:D
@toonyfatninja , your a troll, go kill yourself
@maybe it's your graphics card, and when you die, your a spirit so kill all you want before you come back to life

acrazycanadian responds:

But if he killed himself, who would I have to laugh at? All the other reviews are so nice! :)
I confess, I was totally waiting for the "why can't I use spacebar" comment. It never fails to show up sooner or later, regardless of the fact I've supported spacebar for the last four games.

You've got the spirit thing right. It's an opportunity for lots of free attacks! Death does not stop this samurai. Death just lets you KILL MORE! Muahaha!
