yeah, sorry...
you put work in, nice art.
however, god? really? and how about giving me +20 for hitting two cavemen at once? nope... seems gods might icicles can only hit one guy, regardless of how well i timed it.
this game gives no reason, even for a neurotic person like me, to keep playing to try to win.
You seem to be taking this game way to serious, double kill isn't a bad idea, medals/highscore/eternal glory are your reasons to keep playing.
good game, but bad idea
the graphics are good, so is the music and sound quality is very well done but... who's idea was to just drop iclces on cave man all day?! sounds like a lot of work for nothing... i'll give you a 6 for effort.
Okay.
my half-life isn't long enough
Kind of makes me think of a hypothetical game where you're a radioactive atom with a half-life of 1 second, and the goal of the game is to survive for 10 seconds. Or 20 seconds. You want to know why so few have won it, that's why! Each time, you have a probability of making the shot, a probability of missing. If you're good and you have a smooth running computer, maybe 80% probability once you get a bit into it. But what's 0.8 to the 20th power? A small number, that's what. But that's only the start of the difficulty. At least on my computer, with this game, I have a profound disadvantage, because it stalls often, and runs slower at some times than others - so if I see cameman A walking at a certain rate, I'm not really sure if he's walking at the same pace I saw caveman B walking at a minute earlier just because he looks like he's walking the same speed, and it may turn out he's actually walking faster but my computer is stalling more, and so the icicle falls slower than I imagined because it only looked like the caveman was walking slowly because my computer was stalling and I miss.
I also am annoyed by the fact that I got past 100 points once but because I wasn't logged in, it doesn't show up. I then logged in, and it still didn't show up, so apparently you must be logged in AT the time or else your score is consigned to oblivion. Hmph.
On the other hand, though it is tedious, it IS at least potentially possible for you to carry yourself on from any point. By contrast I recently played another game 2 times, because that was all I could stand, where you had to know what was coming and prepare for it, either through precognition or having played the game before up to that point, because you would have to respond to a situation faster than your little ship could move, and if you didn't, you had to start all the way over (like this). At least with this, there's no memorizing necessary, if you have a steady computer, there is a clearly observable periodic range of time you can press the button to hit the target and proceed through the game. Kind of like one of those price is right games, where you want the price of the thing to fall in a certain range.
The "you got it", "all right" and "kickin' ass" interjections are very annoying, however. Though I could imagine it being more annoying, if there was an instrumental funeral dirge or something. Still, you should take that out.
Thanks for taking the time to write this big-ass review. :3 Really has some helpfull things in it.
well
alright game.
for people who whine because it runs slow on their computers: this is a goddamn flash game quit annoying the author and get a computer with 500mb of ram... shouldn¨'t be too damn hard these days
:3.
It fun in all
I mean its ok but if you fuck up once you start all over again you should continue to the next level and get no points i dont know what you were thinking
