Reviews for "Mass Attack"
Dull
I almost got past level 5, but once I failed level 4/4 for the third time, I realised that the game had just become way too difficult.
I understand your hall of fame thing is supposed to be hard to reach, and so I humbly admit defeat.
Now, my criticism isn't about that, it's about the sheer repetitiveness of the game. It's like you came up with a decent, pseudo-physics basis for a game, then didn't bother to elaborate on it or improve it. All you did to keep the player engaged was increase difficulty, decrease no. of tries allowed and so on and so on. Not only is your "engine" fairly simplistic (although I'm sure it took a while to make, don't get me wrong) but the game has nothing to say for itself other than the basic principle of the "engine".
Try and release a new one with, say, different types of gameplay. Speed balancing, 3 way scales, a tournament style game where winning one round gets you new balls that you gradually put on a main scale, trying to balance it out by the time you win the final match.
Ok, so that's what I came up with from a moment's thought, and believe me I understand that it takes a lot of time and effort to implement that in a game, but it would be worth it for the major increase in quality you'd find for your efforts.
Anyway, decent concept, needs expanding. 5/10
It's cool, buuuuut...
It gets boring after some play time.
i think i found a glitch... :)
when you fail, there is a screen where you can choose continue or quit, but you can put masses on teh balance freely. if you then manage it to make the weights equal (not so hard with unlimites masses) the continue or quit screen dissappears, and you are in a normal game screen where you can put unlimited masses, and even if you get the goal, it doesnt end. the only way to end it it to put a very big mass so it drops to far and you die again.
sorry if you couldnt follow it, or if it was meant so.
Very fun and very hard!
I loved it! It can be very challenging and tough at times but its also a one of a kind game with a nice calm look to and nice relaxing music.
To improve the game I would make it so after the balls scale up in size they get smaller again in size so the game is a little bit more beat able.
