Boring
The game tries to be "artistic". And fails. Nice music, though.
Reviews for "Why this?"
EventHorizon responds:
thanks anyway!
seriously?
no offense, but as a game this blows. The story is looks like it could be interesting, but you don't really give us enough for it to mean anything. it looks more like the introduction to something. if that was all you were going to do with it, then it would have been much better presented as a short flash movie. if there's more to it, then you'd be better off presenting the story in its entirety. but as it stands I simply can't give this a good review.
Alright, but one thing really ruined it for me...
It was alright. Lovely music choice. I like pixel graphics, I believe it allows the player/viewer to fill in the blanks. It really bothers me that we have no idea why he shot his wife, why he forgot, and why he now remembers and regrets it and wants to kill himself. That might be "the point", but if that IS the point, it's not a very good one.
The thing that REALLY ruined it was the poor sentence and grammar structure. It took me a second to try to figure out what the character was trying to say. I was focusing too much on trying to figure it out and it ruined the ambiance.
This has happened too much on newgrounds. Please grammar check your sentences with a friend, or with Microsoft Word or something. Especially if you're trying to convey an emotion or a feeling with your game. You don't need the player/viewer to have to spend time trying to figure out what you meant to say.
I totally understand that english is not everybody's first language, but if you're making a game IN english, it should be written correctly.
This game is pretty awful I must admit.
You can get the tic tac badge by standing beside the countdown clock. *hint* the clock goes faster the more times you end it the normal way.
Your grammar is attrocious. The story didn't even make sense. Seriously, if you make another game, put more effort in.
Finally, what's this about people saying the art is great? It's pixel based. And not particularly good pixel art.
You have imagination,but is not enough
You know to make art games but you was able to do something more interesting
