Reviews for "SPACE FALL UNLIMITED Beta"
SKINMAN123 responds:
Thanks for leaving feedback makes me want to keep the updates flowing. =)
Biggest complaint/point of improvement is key-controls
Using R to restart a level or something to restart quickly would be very useful, as having to select the level over and over can get a bit annoying.
Feature Advice : Just to make it less mundane, perhaps add powerups? (maybe you've already planned this, as this is just beta.. even though it looks more like an alpha to me..)
SKINMAN123 responds:
Yes we plan to add all of this in later updates. We at least plan to add 30 levels and upgrades and more hazards. Maybe possible upside down Levels? =) Good news! a reset button was just add along with a hot key to press it faster! this will be in the next update.
not terrible,not wonderful.but it IS only a BETA game
SKINMAN123 responds:
Thank you I know its not much.
I wouldn't rate it as bad as many people below me did, but there are a few things lacking.
Okay, my first major complain, the filesize, for those graphics it shouldn't take up 11mb. Normally i would say its the fault of the music, but as i didn't hear any music, probably due to a bug, i can't say anything for certain.
The graphics need a lot of work, take the menu as an example, it looks like graphics you found out of google. You really should draw them on your own so that they will match each other. Find some tutorial on how to do them in a free art program or in flash.
And since i'm at it, i wouldn't do the game-graphics in flash, it would look better if you created pixel(as in drawn by a program like Gimp or Photoshop) art and not vector for it, since they are static graphics to begin with.
The programming seems to be okay, aside for the music bug. But, even though the falling speed seems to be realistic, it made playing it quite difficult, as you may take too long to fall...too be honest, i wouldn't know how to fix this haha.
As for gameplay, it's a nice idea, but not very exciting. When i saw the preview image and saw "space fall unlimited" i expected actual falling throughout the entire game, not just from platform to platform, staying in the same square the entire game.
Also some kind of score might be nice, so that the player gets the feel of having to surpass his previous score thus giving it a replay factor.
To sum up:
Add a score, make graphics that look good with each other, preferely not-vector graphics, and you should have a solid 4 star. (and of course fix the music bug) It doesn't take more from there to make it a 5 star game in my opinion.
SKINMAN123 responds:
Thank you so much for the tip I will make sure to look into that.
The game itself is alright, though i don't think the borders should also consist of insta death. Game is slow like you've said and it does get faster, but the pattern of the platforms is so one sided that if you play for awhile and get stuck on a platform and the next one you can get onto is one below you and you move to far over you instant death on the borders.
SKINMAN123 responds:
I plan to make it where if you fall of one side you will come out the other side, but thank you for your response. =)
