Reviews for "CrossCode"

Despite having some of the loading screens take a while (which is where the missing 1/2 star went), the game was really good. All the mechanics worked perfectly fine and I didn't have any problems.

In my opinion though, that intro section should be later in the game. It's obvious that girl and Lea are the same person, so in the full game, I recommend leaving that sequence in as a flashback later on so that you don't have the awkwardness of learning the controls in a clearly high-intensity sequence.

Hey, yeah sadly we can't do much about loading times. Our game does not load everything from the start, that would take way to long. So we load stuff when a map-change happens (We also unload stuff so you PC does not get stalled or anything). You can go to our website and download the windows version of the game! Loading times are almost gone then (www.cross-code.com).

Oh and about the intro? I don't wanna spoil anything but everything went according to our plan ;)

This game is fucking awesome.

Very solid thing you've got going on here. The art style is very good, the combat is slick (though there seems to be no way to access inventory while in active combat, unless I'm missing something). Difficult to judge the writing as it's a very short demo but so far this looks really promising. I'm still on the fence about the Indiegogo thing but I'll have my mind made up sooner or later.

I'd definitely buy this if it comes to Wii U

Good concept, but the execution is still a bit rough around the edges, dashing multiple times gets bugged if it's done too quickly, making the character move only barely (don't tell me you wouldn't spam right click during the boss fight) and moving around the map without getting stuck on things is a tad difficult since you're always running. It's a bit annoying to find yourself running against a wall.
Nevertheless, he music is great, engaging when necessary and somehow reminds me of chrono trigger for some reason, the characters are really well done with lovely sprites and portraits (although the capitain is a bit glitched since he keeps saying that you miss your shots during the combat training even if you don't, but then again it might just be a feature? i don't know), and the story looks really promising. Besides the long loading times there are no other issues with what is a really good demo, I hope the full game gets released soon.
Good luck!

It's not a bug, it's a feature! You can dash up to 3 times in a row before you stamina is out. It's simply to prevent people from dashing around as this would make the combat to easy (You are invincible for a short time while dashing).
Oh and that bug with the captain? I jsut saw that too. I think it's a combination of skipping the cutscene and being to slow. I think we can fix that. And sorry about the long loading time :( It's based the connection to newgrounds and your internet speed (It's loads slow for me too, you might want to give the windows version on our website a spin: www.cross-code.com).
