Reviews for "Mecharon"

AWESOME!!!!!

yeah i know its similer to Crimson Land(never heard of it .just read comments) but hey ,if you claim it all for yourself THEN its plagirism.great job <(..)> < kirby

Sorry...

Every single level looks pretty same. It gets repetive really fast.

its ok

move bug killed it for me sry

An excellent... plagiarism?

First of all, let me say that the game was very well done. The enemies were mostly original and had a good variety, and there were weapons that were new & different. There was plenty of polish, and I could tell that a lot of time had been put into the implementation. For those points, you get one star.

However, the game borrows *EXTENSIVELY* from CrimsonLand by 10Tons Entertainment in its design. I make the comparison a lot with other top down Smash TV style shooters, but a few new weapons and enemies are the only things that keep this from being a straight up port of CrimsonLand to Flash. The format (kill things in a featureless open playing field while collecting pickups and experience to gain a perk at each level) is identical. Most of the perks gained at level up are identical, many in name: Bonus Magnet, Unstoppable, Dodge = Dodger/Ninja, [X Weapon Type] Master, Bonus Warden = Bonus Economist, Cunning Reloader = Angry Reloader, Scientist = Bloody Mess, Instant Repair = Bandage, Radioactive bullets = Poison bullets, Boost Attack Speed = Fastshot, Repair droid = Regeneration (just to name a few). The only pickup that isn't in Crimsonland is the quad damage upgrade.

The bonuses ARE very common in games, but some aren't, and the fact that Crimsonland perks are Mecharon perks, Crimsonland pickups are Mecharon pickups, and in the context of the identical flow of gameplay, this is clearly plagiarism. I wouldn't believe you if you said that you had never played (and loved) Crimsonland, that the design similarities were coincidence.

I like Crimsonland and I wanted to make Flash Crimsonland. It was very very hard because flash gives much much LESS performance.
There are a lot of thing that aren't present in Crimsonland: Black hole, Bonus Rocket launcher (2 weapons at the same time), bosses, units which fight by your side etc.

Hmm

Its was a good game, but I noticed about half the perks stopped working for me after I went to the next level.
