Reviews for "Retriever"

I don't get the responses on this that were expecting a blockbuster. It isn't doing anything new but it isn't doing anything bad either. Its a simple point a to b game and I like that. I think coming into this game expecting a spectacular story or the best and latest controls is nonsense. The controls were clean and responded perfectly to every tap of the keys. Though again there isn't much to them so one would expect them to at least get, run, jump and shoot right. I think the simplicity behind this game is what really made me enjoy it. Quick and to the point. If you come in with high expectations...Well as high as some seem to of had, you will be disappointed. If you com in wanting to play a short sweet flash game, then it does that just fine. I also gave an extra star for replayability, very few games make me want to go back to previous levels out of fun. Bravo sir. Keep em coming.

Thank you so much for the support and kind words. Yeah I wasn't trying to make anything epic here, just some little simple thing that was fun for 15 minutes.

Not a bad little game, but the controls were atrocious, I found myself dying so many times because the game just flat out refused to register my key presses, a little more quality control next time please

This honestly isn't that great. the sagittarian series is way better, please continue that and not this.

I'm sorry. While it played well and the controls were smooth, the game itself was so-so at best. The story was good, but the game was much too easy and felt pointless. So much could've been done with this and it wasn't. That leaves me feeling quite disappointed, especially since it was listed under "best games". I expected much more from this and it failed to deliver.
I think, if the devs were to take another crack at it they might be able to salvage a half-way decent game from this, but as it stands I rate it 1/5 and don't recommend it to anyone.

I loved it. it was fun simple and looked great. good work. i hope you make more like this.
