Black & White Oldschool... Nice

I really enjoyed the hell out of this game with few problems. Loading problems and with the enter/shift controls quite a lot. More importantly though, the star attack with 6 stars seemed to have been a bad idea. Especially since the monsters near the end with come directly at you or try to get behind you. I like a little challenge in my games, but it got pretty ridiculous at that point. If you would ever redo this game I would suggest a few options of star placement given to the player through a menu. Other than those tiny little blips though, I thought the game was fantastic. Keep up all the good work!

Well made

I still have problems with the loading with enter and shift but otherwise i liked the game.

I have to admit that i prefer the 5 stars attack than the 6 one because of the fact that you can't attack directly in front of you.

I never thought I'd be asking this but...

How do I beat that giant pickle?

Overall, good adventure, not so good action. The text is clever enough to make it worth the effort of killing all the monsters, but the monster killing isn't really fun in and of itself. Sometimes it is irritatingly flawed.

For example, the 6 star attack is far worse than the 5 star, because you can't fire at enemies right in front of you, which is exactly where they are trying to be. A triangle layout would have been natural for 6 stars.

Seven stars is pretty nice, but the upstairs level is still hard. I don't have the patience to do it over and over just to fight the boss. Maybe just before the ladder there should be a save point.

Irritating respawn point. Could at least have been in the main room close to whatever door or stair you went through last.

PROS:
I like the fact that your eyes are open and close single quotes depending on which way you're facing.

Lastly, I loved the telekinesis power.

I died and got bored, after 3 seconds. The thing that guy says was kinda funny.
"-explains controls- Now, i die. ACH!"
