When I saw the game, I tought that it would be a classic platformer with really bad control, well, you know what? I was half right and half wrong. This game has really good graphics and control but, it's not an original platformer, I would even call it classic. But for a game to be good, you don't need to be the most original game in the world to be good, you just need a good gameplay because it's the base of video games. So here we go with the review.
Gameplay : The gameplay in this game is well done, when you jump there's more than one frame of animation per second and the control are precise, when you touch the space bar on your computer it jumps directly, it doesn't bug. So yeah, a simple gameplay but like I said before you don't need an incredible gameplay to make a good game, I mean Mario is one of the best game of all time and it's one of the simpliest gameplay in the world. Also, we're in a platformer.
The story : Yeah, the story is not incredible but it was made to be this way, it's a simple platformer following the foot of Mario, Sonic, Kid Icarus, Castlevania, etc. We're not here to have the most complex story in the existence of humanity, we're to play a simple platformer.
The lifetime of the game : Well, it's pretty good for a flash game one a site like Newgrounds. It has time trial, secret item and you can just play it for the fun. Okay, it's not perfect because the game only has four level, but again, we're on a flash game, not something made by Nintendo with a big budget so really, it pass, it's even really good for this little game.
The soundtrack : The soundtrack in this game is simple and really good. It's energetic, simple and it stays in your head for quite some time. It achieves his goal for a simple flash game like that. Yes, it can be a little distractingwhen you're in a really hard level, (the secret level of the third world for example) but there's an option to just stop the music, so it's not really a problem.
The world : Again, pretty simple, looks like Indiana Jones and like a LOT of platformer that I played in my short life time, (sixteen years of life time, wow, so big...). The lava world, the water world, the ''grass'' and the, I don't know templish kinda world with electricity. Okay, to be faire this world is pretty fun to play, hard and original.
So, to resume the game, good soundtrack, simple gameplay, cool world but not enough and really original, good life time for a flash game and a pretty simple story but we're in a platformer so it's cool.
My final note is 70/100, wich is really good for a flash game. So good job and it was fun to play even if I didn't finish, (I'll do it, don't worry).
Thanks for this awesome and keep up the good work,
