Reviews for "The Killer - gametrekking"

Music is decent

Glitch, while holding space bar, click outside of the game box and let go of space bar, guy will keep walking.

its.... weeelllll...

i read your comment for the game i get what your saying, music is nice, but this is not a game at all. if i was able to do a bit more interactions with it then yes it would be a game and meaningfull too.
it would have been more fitting to make it a flash and maybe more action. cause all there is the two of'em walking (couple min??) and thats it. there is really nothing to keep me watching it.
maybe add like flying birds here or there, have the stickman do a bit more than just push one doing the same repeat again and again...

hey thar handsome

Well, here's the issue. A lot of art has this problem, not just art games. People think that length and repetition within their art is impactful, and that's true, up to a certain extent. Forcing your audience to view a certain image or repeat a certain action can have a lot of meaning, and can really help to convey a certain message.

But when you force the audience to repeat that action enough times, it becomes meaningless.

Unfortunately, that's what happened in this "notgame." The first few times I prodded the stick figure with my gun meant a lot. But after a certain point, I just started hitting the space bar as quickly as possible, trying to get to the next part of the notgame. Quite frankly, I got bored, and by the time I reached the end, my actions had become meaningless. It's like when you say a word so many times that it transforms from a word into pure sound; prodding my helpless victim with my gun barrel started out as prodding my helpless victim with my gun barrel... but before long, I was just hitting the space bar.

In the future, try to vary the actions we have to perform, or don't make us perform as many of them. Then, the "notgame" will retain a bit more of its punch.

i like the music though.

Ughh

I am normally a huge fan of art games, but this one just did not hit the mark. How long did you spend on this? 15 minutes? I mean come on. The whole point behind art games is to be able to participate in them but this one was basically just a video that you had to hold down the play video on. I'm almost insulted that someone put this up. Number one, the cambodian genocide deserves a better and much more gut wrenching game and number two, I think the game begets an air of arrogance that just pisses me off. Next time put in some effort/story, then I won't ding you.

Not a game.

This is NOT a game. If you accidentally posted the animation in the game section, fine. If it was a genuine attempt at a game, then it was a failure.

All you do is hold down the space bar. Not tap, or clicking strategically - just hold down the bar for the video to play.

The creator also failed to add a mute button.
