Too long
It was original, with catchy music and an interesting gameplay mechanic, but about ten levels too long.
Reviews for "Infestor"
I like the concept but it was too easy
The concept was very interesting and I like how you put things together.
But I don't like how the stages were so linear. You basically just go to the nearest character and take over them and continue on doing the same thing until you reach the end. I think more puzzle situations should be included.
Besides the game being easy it's still really fun to play.
Wow!!
A game I actually found easy... still, i like taking over people and sacrificing them for the greater good!!! THE GREATER GOOD!!!
it was fun but easy
nice concept. Good music and graphics. I felt the levels held your hand too much. You devote entire level designs to simple concepts such as 'mid air jump' and 'conveyor belts!'
People who play games regularly are fast adapters. They pick up concepts quick. If you want to teach new audiences to get into your game, have 'beginner' levels but don't drag that beyond level 5.
The majority of the people playing your game today are people who are already addicted to games and are casual players. By no means do they need 20 levels of signs and slowly introduced concepts.
I would like to see all of your concepts introduced earlier and more challenging puzzles designed around your concepts.
Grade A game
This game is pretty amazing compared to what normally gets pumped through the front page. Let's break it down:
The good:
+Music: The musical score was fitting and pleasant to listen to.
+Graphics: Who doesn't love pixels? Evil people. That's who
+Control: Crisp responsive controls that are simple and easy to pick up. Can't go wrong with this
+Concept/Plot: While nothing fancy, it is still new and original-ish, which I can definitely appreciate.
The Bad:
-Simplicity: The game was simply too easy. A "hard mode" would've been appreciated
-Variety: Would've liked to see more types of people to take over, and more to do with them than simple jumps
Overall:
The shortcomings of this game pale in comparison to all the things the author gets right. Play this game. Beat it. Like it. Rate it accordingly, and ask for a sequel, I'd love to see this game taken to the next level.
While this game isn't perfect, It is definitely an A-grade title. PLAY IT! :]
