Reviews for "Futility"

SLightly too hard

Unforgiving gameplay, tiny platforms, iffy collision detection...

It was often easier to simply bypass all of the normal enemies by jumping down to the boss platform. And if that wasn't an option, it was easier to give up a life or two to run madly through the level.

The level landscape needs some work...

Challenging, but not in the way I intended.

It's not bad, but here's what usually happens:

"WTF? Where do I go? I can't tell where to go with such a limited view. This is retarded!"

"That fucking golden needle keeps killing me, even though it never touches me! In fact, most of the enemies don't even hit me, yet I keep getting killed. This buggy entity bullshit is retarded!"

"My shots just pass through the enemy! What gives? He can just graze and kill me, but I have to hit dead center, and limited to only 4 directions? This is retarded!"

"The enemy is positioned in just a way where I can't hit it, and if I try to, it'll probably kill me anyway. In fact, I can't even see when an enemy attacks me before I can dodge it. This is retarded!"

"The same bosses, over and over? Just grouped up differently? This is repetitive. No, wait... that's retarded."

But really, the game itself is fun. It's hard. It's fast-paced. But PLEASE fix those fucking entities. I'd rather go "AWWW! Damn, I died again. Man this game is hard, but fun!", but instead I'm saying "IT DIDN'T EVEN TOUCH ME! GODDAMNIT!"

Then there was one instance...

"Aww, sweet, got to the boss without a single death."

*Cat walks in front of monitor, stops, looks at me*

*Hears plummeting sound, game over*

"FFFFFFFFFFFUUUUUUUUUUUUUU-"

Fuck this!

No wonder it's futile, you have no frickin limbs!

Way too hard lol

the fact that you die when anything TOUCHES you is really annoying, one of the reasons i don't like mario, you have to jump around things in unusual and annoying ways, and sometimes that can't even save you. also the z button being used for jump feels very unnatural to a lot of players, try changing it to the up arrow...

lol cool game i kill one boss
