Reviews for "Mechanical Ice Apocalypse"

Great for the time limit!

Very enjoyable concept! Not the most original but the elements you had in it worked so nicely. I really liked the fact that you added a slow down button- worked really well with the controls as they were in this game. And the art! My god Xelu you always amaze.

Great job guys!

so close

ended with 2:22 as my best.

easiest way to win is with a Touhou strategy. Hold the fire button and just dodge, hits are a bonus.

only thing i didn't like was starting over entirely after a death. Possibly give a health bar, extra lives, or implement a time penalty so you don't have to redo everything if you have a tiny slip up.

also, did you intend for the timer to max at 9:59?

Yes, the timer does max out at 9:59. You're the first person I've heard of to find that out :P - Brian

Version updates?

Nice game.
You say in 2.0 many bugs are fixed. However, I can only play 1.5. Can you please explain how version updates work on this site?

bcdefg123 responds:

Once a Flash gets to a certain amount of views (about 5,000, although I'm not completely sure), you get a popup whenever you try to edit the .swf. This popup basically says that the update will go under administrative review for 24-48 hours, and resubmitting basically ruins your chances of winning awards (although that doesn't apply for us now unless winning the Game Jam is considered an award. In that case, we're screwed :P). So basically you have to take things slow then. We submitted the update about 5:00 PM EST yesterday (just a guess) and it's almost noon now. So we have a bit to go before the 24 hour mark. Hope this sheds some light on the situation. - Brian

Welcome to DIE!

Nothing says a flash game like an old school flavored shoot em up boss fight. Nicely done gents.

you know what's strange?

First of all, the graphics, gameplay, and music are all amazing.

But the strangest thing is that the pussy mode is a lot harder than the hardcore mode. Yeah, I beat hardcore in the two tries, but it took me five to beat the pussy mode? Strange...

Great game tho

10/10 ^_^
