Reviews for "Dino Strike"
There is no beat 'em up in existence
That cannot be made automatically ten times more awesome by adding cybernetic dinosaurs to it.
The controls lag a little bit, like sometimes there will be a delay between pressing attack and the animation starting, if it registers at all (which isn't so bad, since you can just spam the attack button until you get the desired result). Additionally, it might be smart to make the game default to low quality, since I could not see any difference between the quality levels except performance.
A+ job
Wow! amazing game!
One of the best newgrounds as ever seen. I cant believe its only rated a 4.18 as of now.
The graphics, gameplay, music and sound, everything was perfect. Miniclip has outdone themselves this time.
It was a the perfect beat up, button mash fighting game. It reminded me of sega genesis classics. Only it was better! the dinosaurs changing to your team was awesome programming!
Its a little short and theres hardly any replay value once you beat it, but the first go around its definitely one of the best games on newgrounds, no doubt. Everybody should play this (i cant believe it only has 11000 views!)
5/5 everyday
I have noooo hate for this game
I only wish it had more levels.
Far too easy, but otherwise exceptionally done.
Well, it would seem that someone on the Miniclip payroll has been spending some quality time with the game "Cadillacs and Dinosaurs", doesn't it? =3
That being said, I've found that you guys tend to have a rather high standard in regards to your games and this is no exception. This is a VERY well-made Flash beat-em-up in which the flaws are few and trivial (though of course I'll mention them), with excellent, well-animated graphics that have a clear basis in the better SNK games, a catchy soundtrack that fits the action well, and gameplay where, in a rarity for the genre, there are few to no cheap hits and you're quite capable of avoiding and preventing nearly all attacks if you've spent enough time with beat-em-ups. There's even a ton of weapons around and you're rarely without a little friend to introduce to your enemies in swift, violent fashion.
Now for the bad points, and I assure you they are few.
First and foremost, the game's too easy. While the game allows you to easily avoid taking any damage if you stay alert, when you DO take damage, it's an extremely low amount that can easily be healed. I never dropped to less than maybe 75% of my health during my entire playtime, let alone lost a life.
Second of all, you've got more than a few too many barrels, boxes and whatnot within the stages. This kind of contributes to the game being too easy since you are constantly having health powerups and new weapons thrown into your face. I mentioned that tons of weapons are a good thing, but perhaps making more than the guns limited-use would make for a bigger challenge.
Third of all (and this isn't the kind of thing I'd dock you points for, it's just a personal thing), it would have been kind of nice to have the heroes and enemies names like in, say, Final Fight. Half the fun of those old games involved seeing what stupid nicknames the Mook Legion went by as you cut a swath through the streets. =3
Aside from the minor complaints, this is a really good game and you've done well. Be proud.
