Reviews for "Black Thing"
Nice concept
But it's very buggy. There were waaay to many times that black blob fell through solid floor to its doom making it very annoying to play.
good
game
super cool
I think its a really cool idea for a game. Reminds me of epic mickey, in that game you have to splash paint everywhere too. I personally hate controls that use arrow keys and the mouse, but I'm on a netbook so... that explains that. The music puts me to sleep. But overall, its a really cool idea!
Unrealized Potential
The good: The concept is strong. In this game, it's pretty vital to "explore" by throwing black ink everywhere. It reveals the presence of secrets, key items to help you move forward, etc. A unique twist to an otherwise pretty mundane platforming game.
The bad: Buggy. You spend your time building a robot - yet what's the robot for? I never got all the robot pieces, so I guess I'll never know. Little disappointing.
The ugly: The music is horrible. I get the stark music to complement the scenes but that's not motivating me to "Play Moar."
Overall: One new idea to an unfinished garden variety platformer. Yawn.
