Reviews for "Duty Hill 2"

you should make the game harder. it is way too easy. the gun turret needs to be nerfed because it seems to be the most cost effective of the turrets. good otherwise though.

The aiming tracks very well, I was pretty impressed with that. The enemies race in far too fast to be able to aim at them, though. I ended up strafing the whole time, making the aiming near useless.
The game is also very simple. You should add new levels, new weapons, new guard equipment, and additional guards.
I never bothered with the sprinting as the character runs too fast as it is. character points took too long to earn for how little gameplay variety there is.
If you make people grind for stat points, there should be something to hold them to it. I didn't even notice any improvement after putting 3 stat points into my rifle.
You lost a star because this is one level, repeated with no variety.
You lost another for the forced strafing. This game needs to slow its enemies down dramatically.
You described this as "Contra style", but this looks and feels nothing like Contra. Contra wasn't a top-down shooter. You have obvious skill, as the controls worked exactly as intended and the aiming was amazing, if only there was a time to use it. Sprinting would work if you slowed the character down first. Also, map it to a different key. Q is awful for sprint. Try shift or ctrl.

CONTRA STYLE?
u mean like somehow close to the small top-down part in super contra?

It would be nice if i actually knew how to use the flamethrower when it was ready.

if this is your first game, i would like to congradulate you on actuallly making something.

it's relatively simple in construction, so i wasnt expecting anything spectacular. at this point, if i were you, i would plan on making an improved version of this. maybe get a better, less repetitive musical track. secondly, more content overall is always a score booster. do make sure there are no game breaking flaws.

one last thing to note. i dont know if you actually know what contra is, here's the low-down:
it's a Side Scroller, not a Top Down shooter. pixelated too. so if you ever wish to make a comparison to another game, take the time to actually KNOW the game you're trying to emulate.

Maybe you should know more about the game series you're talking about, Toddler.
