Reviews for "Armored Ashura 2"
I don't know why people are rating this so harshly
The game is intriguing and this game has improved from the original in both difficulty and to a lesser extent content. I really liked how you had to use environmental hazards to kill the mini-boss, and new sets of enemies added more flavor and difficulty to the game. While some may complain about the difficulty its obvious they're just simply unfamiliar with how the games in this genre work. (They're meant to be insanely hard people)
There are a few things I'd like you to address though, for one... it looks like you intended the various powers to each have their own application for parts in the stage, but I did find a few to be a more useful than the others. The range and duration on the fire power special is just... too short, and almost useless when you're surrounded by enemies. I really only found use for it on the lass boss to knock away all his missiles and bullets and get a quick hit in. It would be nice if you gave that special an upgrade so it would seem an attractive alternative to the other powers.
I found the rocket and particularly the laser powers to be the best, the rocket special basically clears the screen out for you, but the laser is what truly shines, it sends out a constant beam blowing away anything in front of you with a long duration, coupled with a shield around you that will stop any bullets and kill anything nearby coming in from the rear. When used effectively it's pretty easy to get a perfect run on expert with careful use of that power. (I really didn't need any others) If you could, it might be a good idea to try to balance them more.
Another thing I'd really like to see in this series is a storyline, seeing the detail you've put in the main character has and your focus on this project leads me to suspect you at least have thought of one. A background story for your game would add immersion, and a sense of nostalgia to the series. Nothing too extensive mind you, just a little chunk of story in the beginning and end to add to the enjoyment of the game like what they did in Zero Wing, or Aerofighters.
All in all I think this is a great game, and I had a lot of fun with it at the cost of nothing to myself. I really appreciate and enjoy what you artists do here, and find it a little hard to understand why some people are so very harsh on these independent animators that post their flashes here and let you play with their intellectual property for FREE. Especially considering most of these trolls haven't even submitted a thing themselves. The game is a classic embodiment of all those old fliers I had so much fun with back in my days as a kid in the arcade. Once again, the game is a lot of fun, and a great addition to the website here. I look forward to seeing what you come up with in the future.
