Reviews for "River City Ransom Beta"

Not bad at all

Controls worked for me. Fights were a little on the easy side but felt exactly like the older arcade walk-fight games. Might want to move reconsider the placement of the keys cause I found myself only using the fight keys and not the jump or 4th one that I can't even recall the purpose of. To use the 4th key a player would be using the principal [fight] keys with the weaker, slower fingers. Maybe reverse the sequence or make a block like ASZX

The final version will have a control customization menu :)

Shabby? No sir :D

Looking good so far dude! Considering there are only 2 available levels to play in this BETA, it's very entertaining to say the least. I for one didn't find any bugs, and I really liked how expansive it was in terms of the actionscripting with the controls and all... I can really appreciate the extra effort taken to make moves possible like the running jump + kick, and being able to throw the planks by pressing S after you've picked them up.
The sprite graphics look pretty good, but may be just a tad smaller... a further 10% zoom would make it look really neat I think.
It was good to see that you tried to add a bit of humor in there, by adding the comments down the bottom from the 'players', but it didn't really work out i feel, as they take up a bit of the screen space, and you don't really get a chance to read them when you're playing :P
Anyways, everything looks very good thus far, very entertaining.
Study for your exams, and get straight back into this after, I look forward to seeing a more complete version of it :D

Hi mate. I have seen your reviews before, thanks for the comments again.

Even though some of my friends also complained about the dialogue system....well lets just say I'll keep it for now to pay homage to the old skool :P

I'll build the whole game for sure. :D

good, but short

umm, im not sure if im doing anthing wrong or anything, but i dont think you can past the second part of the level. ive played the real one, and i noe you can. but i guess it because its a demo. o well

Good...remake

Yeah, it's great remake from a popular NES game, i liked this but there are a few problems, there were a few rampant bugs and I didn't like the walking back 'n' forth between areas just to fight, but it did bring back memories and what i liked most about it was the awesome near-perfect music and graphics, i'm suprised if you didn't use sprites. What I also liked was picking up the baseball bat and cloberin' it with the enemies when I got bored of the basic attacks, it's great game when you keep in mind it's beta, good job on this but now I really wanna play the full version... well anyway overall anyone on NG lookin' for games should try this at least once.

i got up to $43.5!

great game! i hope u make more river city ransom games! awesome game.
