It's cool but
might need to revamp the upgrades a bit.
Reviews for "Arm of Revenge"
cool
simply masterpiece metal slug style
TWEAKING !
It needs more tweaking! the concept was interesting, the game was fun but as others might have said it lacks in technical difficulties.
good idea bad game
could be great
Great idea, terrible execution
The game itself is amazing. Mechanics work almost flawlessly, graphics are great, and sound works for the game. However, here are the flaws:
1) Combos: The whole idea of a combo is to stun the enemy so you can keep hitting them. Past level three, however, I had enemies breaking out of the combo-stun and hitting me back, ruining my combo streak
2) Upgrade system: Too freaking slow. The prices for upgrades make it so that you have to play 2 or 3 days in a row in order to unlock all the "free" upgrades. Also, the upgrades you need to beat hard mode for were just ridiculous. Easy mode was a pain to beat, I can't even imagine what hard would be. Which brings me to the next criticism:
3) Difficulty: The bosses weren't too bad until I got to the giant robot. It is almost IMPOSSIBLE to beat him without buying the green health boosters. However, the last boss was the last straw. He was almost pathetically easy to beat in the first stage, and when he rages he's able to take 3/4 of your almost fully upgraded life bar away with one attack. Seriously? Doesn't even give you time to go to the store and buy your green goo.
Overall, this game needs more work. It's not fun if you have to be an expert gamer in order to beat the game. I enjoy the challenge, I'm from the 80s generation of gamers, but this game takes me back to the unbeatable era of gaming
