Very detailed RPG. Combat is simple enough to pick up, but fast enough to keep from being boring.
Like the fact that you have to type in the answer to a riddle instead of multiple choice. Good game.
Reviews for "The Awakening RPG"
RockLou responds:
Thank you! :)
Great concept and pretty addictive. It's a bit glitchy at times after battles, same with entering battles where I froze up. Other than those few bugs, great game!
RockLou responds:
Thanks for the review! If you could, and have time... could you PM me about when the game froze up?
Just... amazing! I can't really think of anything else to say. I love it!
RockLou responds:
Thank you! :)
It wont let me out of the dojo door.Would love too see mouse control for moving the character.
RockLou responds:
I have thought about mouse controls for moving the player... but I decided not to.
As for the dojo, you're supposed to talk to a guy inside the dojo before you're allowed to leave.
You get 5 stars from me for pulling through after working for years on this game! Good job!
I like the atmosphere and interface. Since you also ask for critique, here are some ideas fo improvement:
- Please don't make CTRL the Run key. CTRL + W closes the window in Chrome browser, which meant that after customizing my character and getting to play the game for the first time, it suddenly shut down when I tried to run up. Normally I wouldn't reload a game after that experience, but I did in this case just to come back and comment.
- Please give some directions or a map - with nowhere specifically to go, and no record of where I've been, I feel like I'm walking in circles in the forest after 5 minutes. The battle interruptions are enough to disorient me.
- There is noticeable lag, which it should be perfectly possible to prevent.
- How to open the save game menu should be explained early on.
Well, just my two cents. Once again, good job.
RockLou responds:
Thank you so much for the in-depth review!
The running is already fixed. I have thought about this before and you convinced me - now you always run. You cannot toggle running.
Directions come sometimes throughout the story, when I figure the player may need help with directions. There aren't any in the beginning because I thought it was easy enough to find your way.
I wish I could fix the lag, I have tried to. But nothing I did was ever enough. You may fix it by pressing F1 to change the quality to low.
You might be right about the last point. But I was hoping people would find the 'save game' and 'main menu' in the inventory pretty easily.
