Reviews for "Yakuza Rising"

I like the concept but it didnt get 5 stars because of the terrible controls

DEDPIXL responds:

Do you mean keyboard layout wise or mechanic wise?

i beat it good little game

its good but the controls are a bit finiky, i think maybe the choice to pick ur own controls would be a good addition, or space to jump instead of up. i kept pressing x to jump. maybe just have the melee and the shoot button as the same key, so that when ur nest to a dude u push shoot, and he melees them. just have it as an action button. apart from that, its cool

This game seems like it had a lot of potential, but I quit after a few minutes of trying to do the long-jumps. It seems really difficult to sprint and jump at the same time. I'm sure there's a way to clear the gap, but it was way too frustrating so I quit the game. There's something about sprinting, jumping, and maintaining that velocity while in the air that is extremely tricky, and that's just unacceptable for a platforming game.

I love the game's style, feel, and looks, but the control scheme feels to clumsy. I have my three fingers all cramped next to each other trying to coordinate a running then a quick shot or slice and they end up hitting he wrong keys and I screw up and die. This can be solved by a simple letting the players set up their own keys for how they want to play it. A fun little game otherwise.
