Reviews for Sky Boarder III

[Per-Killer]

Very original! Great idea, well executed.

This game is like.. Shoot'em/Beat'em-up/RPG.
I love the idea, the system on how it works with different weapons, unlocking levels, solving goals, etc.. Infact, the originality and gamplay get a 10 from me. Only thing I have to complain about is the sound-quality of the voices (-Especially- the one in the beginning of the game, explaining the plot ;p) and the "style" when it comes to Menus in-game, the font beeing used etc.. Other than that, the graphics isn't great, but it's really cool and fits a game like this. It's original, weird, and it's not like those shoot'em up games, when you just don't FEEL the game at all. You'll love the feeling of blasting trough heaps of monsters, using your super-powerup, getting great combos and so on xD Overall, one of the best flash-games I have ever played!

This was an awesome review. The detail of what you liked and disliked. Thank you Per-Killer. It helps me develop SB3 v2. And forthcoming games.

Excellent Game.

Forgive me for the ratings but I have to tell the truth. Although I put the ratings like that, I find this one of the most excellent games on Newgrounds as well as the Internet.

Cool.

I will have to play more some other time.

Some suggestions:

I like how there was a "skip" button on one of the beginning parts. If possible, add that to all the beginning parts. (I was glad there was the option to exit with that little firefly thing!) It's just irritating to sit through the tutorial each time I try a new game.

A bit more of a detailed world map. I guess if you want to make people search to find the shrines, races, etc. then it's OK as is, but I would have loved a map.

Some of the level goals were a bit ambiguous. I couldn't figure out, for example, what "melting the ice wall" was supposed to be for at least a few tries.

Also, along those lines, sometimes I had to dodge a bunch, or kill a bunch with just the melee attack. Is there any way a counter could be put in, so I have some clue how much longer I need to fly around before my "dodge 50" goal is met?

Anyway, good work, thanks for the fun, no thanks that I have to rush and finish some work now. :(

One question:

I've got a question: is it possible to load a game if you were "game over" in it once? It's at least not possible in my game, but because many people seem to have problems loading, the "game over" doesn't need to be the reason...
Anyway, I think it's a bad idea to put something like "lives" into a game like that at all...If you compare to other games in which you are also collecting things, like "Super Mario 64", well it has lives, but you aren't losing anything if you are "game over"...you can just game on, I think it'd be better if that was the case in this game aswell.
But overall it is a very fine game and it's obvious that you thought pretty much about how to do it...the different ways to finish a level are well done and I think it would really be some fun if...yes, if I was able to load my game after I was game over ;)

it fucked up

It's a great game, but for some reason, it started doing it's own thing, don't know why. I lost all control of the game

Micol-Rankin-Games responds:

Sorry Snipe.........I don't know what the hell that is about, I've tested that game about 1000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000 times and have NEVER run into that problem, however I will look further into it SKY BOARDER III v2 FEBRUARY 25th.
