Animation and effects are great but...
The controls are really stiff
They're really unresponsive to, at times i would try to jump or just run away from an enemy and pico wouldn't move
Reviews for "Newgrounds: Retaliation"
Some cool elements.
Cool artwork, narrative and music.
The control and movement was somewhat original and interesting. But killing those waves did get kinda boring after a while. Also some controls could be made a little smoother, like being able to jump while facing up, or crouching, instead of having to release the up/down key before jumping.
Liked it better than the average game I play though, so I'll give it a 10.
(p.s. I generally really prefer shooting platform games where you can aim with the mouse and the keyboard is just for movement... guess you decided not to do that though... shame :/ )

You can jump while aiming up or crouching, you don't have to release the up/down key. Not sure why it wasn't working for you :S
I prefer shooting games where you aim with the mouse also but it just ended up this way. If we make another shooting game we'll most probably make sure it's mouse controlled.
great art
and music too but its very glitchy make the move ments more easier and faster
meh....
The art was good..... and that was it.
hmm cool idea
One of the betterr pico games
control sucks sadly repititive and could you mention you jump with "s"
thats the one control i actually learned could you mention what they are
Torrunt responds:
It is mentioned. The Tom Fulp character behind you in the main area after the cinematic tells you all about the game. In the patch I'll probably move in in front of the player so when you walk past you know he has something to say, as well as other fixes and changes.
