Reviews for "Slender Run"

Unresponsive controls, poor blending of graphics, and an already tired theme and genre makes Jack a dull boy. Seriously, terrible Slender Man....he could have been scary, I think, if the drawing was at least cleaned up somewhat, or given a more definite style. As it is, looks like stickman-version of Jack Skellington with a balloon for a head! It's not scary at all. Maybe if Slender Man grabbed the player when they died and carried them off or something....

And the controls....I think it's screwy that if I get caught behind a red box then my only option is to jump and roll (maybe, didn't get a chance to get it to work), but no matter how hard I tried...if I got trapped behind a red box, I got stuck and died.
And that roll doesn't seem to serve a purpose...I mean it's interesting, but so what? It doesn't do anything.
I do like that the controls are static and don't make the player switch back and forth between mouse and keyboard to do simple things like say....restart the game.
I also really like the inclusion of hi-score tables. I think that really bolsters the interest in the game.

out of 10...
gfx - 4 (poor blending of various styles)
sfx - N/A (I have no soundcard)
design - 5 (cool hi-scores, but tired theme)
gameplay - 4 (poor controls, bad physics)

overall, this could have been a much better game if it either wasn't Slender-themed or just did what it tried a little better. I think the design is okay, but overall this really seems sort of uninspired and I think it doesn't work, given what it does. Slender was never a really good idea in the first place, and I wonder if even the people who were fans are sick of it yet.
I think that your next game will be radical, but I sincerely hope it's a much more original idea and that it's a reasonable filesize, as 10mb is a very rude thing to upload. To me, it says you really don't care how long I have to wait to play the game.

good game

game is messed up.
i got stuck when i perfectly rolled in time to go in the tunnel thingy.
i think there's a bug in this game

This is interesting. Rolling is fairly useless though which disappointed me.

Needs the option to go at your own pace since i'm getting jump timing wrong and it doesn't help there is no check pointing either, The extra two lives seem pointless since you end up moving too fast
