Reviews for "Newgrounds: Retaliation"

Pretty, but doesn't follow through

I love the art style, but unfortunately that seems to be all that was done correctly about this game. The controls were, as someone else mentioned, very slippery and unresponsive. Maneuvers were quite difficult to pull off, and bullet firing speed appeared to lack any normalized restriction system, as I could sometimes fire in rapid succession but other times I couldn't fire three bullets without mashing the key for a while.

I only played through half of the first level, as I couldn't deal with the aforementioned problems. From what I saw, the level designs were irritating, what with the aiming system only accounting for left/right/up/low firing, and the enemies seemed repetitive, but I can't really judge because they may have gotten better had I played longer.

Like I said, the art was very good. I was excited to try the game when I saw it, having noticed a thread post about it on one of the forums I visit (though unfortunately I can't remember which), but unfortunately my hopes were dashed. However, it's obvious that there was a fine deal of effort put into this. I'd be glad to give it another shot if the controls were fixed up.

alright

the game is alright, for being so boring and all. but seriously whats the fucking deal with the controls? it's kinda retarded to put jump and shoot close together on the key board.

Clunky and dull

potencil to be an excerlent game (the graphic style was nice) but sadly let down by sheer repetiveness and clunky movements

Meh...

The IDEA is interesting... The art is great... The concept funny and engaging... But the sluggish controls, stupid AI and the very slow paced action doesn't make enjoy this game they way it should...
But on the bright side it has a lot of potential to become something more...

Keep it up!

Not the best...

Although the idea was nice, the game really felt extremely slow, with each waving taking too long to complete.
The controls aren't crap, but they're just very slow to respond.
The graphics were really good though, and the music was alright.
