Reviews for "Runes of Shalak"

-.-

stupid game nothing new and really bad gameplay

This game has pretty much no redeeming qualities. The graphics are simplistic, with an attempt to be nostalgic, and I'll give it a personal pass on that. However, the gameplay is ruined by how buggy and bad the programming is. The hit/collision boxes are absolutely terrible, as well are the controls. You can safely land on a block that is placed slightly next to a spike block and die, which means you most likely have to repeat the tedious process of jumping on glitchy, badly-programmed blocks again. The enemy hitboxes are screwed up, too; you can safely (and visibly) avoid an enemy and still die, regardless. The game requires a precision that, because of the horrible collision boxes, makes the game almost unplayable, aggravating, and boring. Whereas rage games purposely try to kill you and frustrate you, they at least don't do it through overall bad game-making.

If it wasn't for medals, I'd probably quit this game sooner. Now I regret that I haven't... Not only I don't have medals, I also completely lost my mind.
Thank you :D

Fun to start with....

But it stops when you get to the 8-bit world.... on my com that is....

Nope

This game is too much flawed to be good....
First of all, the graphics:
they are supposed to look old-school but they are just crappy.
Then there are the bugs (no, nit the enemies) like the one where you fall through platforms, wich are totally unacceptable..
And then there's gameplay, some really frustrating levels, but l guess that you are a master of ftrustrating other people right?
Do you really want to ruin medal games?
PshychoGoldfish came up with an awesome idea and frankly, you're turning it into shit.
