Reviews for "The Rise of a Knight"

Opinion and a few suggestions

I enjoyed it very much. Thank you for creating an interesting game. I also liked the story very much.

A few suggestions:
1. Having the opportunity to level up and gaining new attacks/spells would be great also. (with Stats) Doing more damage, more defense, more health
2. Gaining new armor and weapons would make this game more fun. =D
3.How about a save file? That way the player doesn't have to start from the beginning if they want to take a break. Again, thanks.

Glad you enjoyed it!
This is NOT an rpg. Its focused on pure action and adventure, but yeah more moves and some upgrades are cool ideas mentioned by many people. I will keep that in mind for future games thanks :)

A save option is also a great idea, if only I was good enough with programming to know how to do that! Well I will take a serious look at some ways to make saves in flash games. I've dabbled around with some save and load tutorials before, but not too much. That would probably be one of the first things I have to learn considering my coding skills. Wish me luck :)

Kinda boring

This game is a good hack n slash, with some nice art, and a good story. But there needs to be something more on the game play side.
1. The enemies need more variety, sure some of them look different but most of them are just killed the same way.
2. The formula gets old, run to the right and slash anything that gets in the way; which would be fine if the enemies werent all killed by a couple of mindless slashes, see the flash game wulfgar for examples of a fun hack n slash formula.
3.A level up system, some unlockable moves, that kind of stuff would add a whole extra level of fun to this game, along with the occasional optional side quest, theres not much point in adding rpg elements of the game is going to be linear and straight forward, otherwise everyone who plays the game will be the around the same level by the end of the game.

Nice story, nice animation, nice music; Just needs...something more to the gameplay. 4/5

SeethingSwarm responds:

Thanks!
I have played Wulfgar. Its really good :)
Yeah Im still learning a lot and I think I am improving. All the reviews helps me a lot to see what people think and most reviews have been extremely helpful and enlightening, yours as well thanks.

well done

i really like the game nice animation of the main character

adn well the other guys said it before me it would be nice for a lvl system item and mst likely i would like potions regeneration is a nice idea but its too slow

en a combo system would be nice i accidently by button bashing figerured out that the heavy slash can can hit twice in a row so i mostly used that attack xD but it worked but if there was a real como system it would be nice

but for the rating anitmation superb gameplay scored high en interactivity even higer

story was really nice too nice thought given around it

so overall ill give you a 8/10

and a 4\5

SeethingSwarm responds:

Thanks a lot!
Glad you liked it. Your compliments are encouraging and thanks for the high scores :)
Yeah it seems almost everybody wants more moves and upgrades. I will definitely keep that in mind.

Very very nice

I gotta say this has gotta be one of the best hack and slash adventure games on newgrounds...
Though i have a few gripes at some points
1.Some times when your attacked by 2 or 3 enemies sometimes you cant attack and you will get gangbang and raped.

2.Needs a butten to lower the quality

3.The sword slashes need to be a bit better drawn but thats not really a huge problem..or a problem what so ever it just kinda bugged me =).

4.Sometimes the controls are delay like a whole second.

And i also have a few suggestions if your gonna make a number 2

1. A leveling system maybe?
2.Some shops too buy some equipment.
3. some potions to heal yourslef if you get damaged alot.
4.And finally maybe make the enemies recoil when they hit your shield!!

The review:
Graphics: 8 1/2 : 10
Sound 9:10
Effects 7:10
Controls 8:10
Gameplay :9 1/2 : 10

In closing this a great game that DEMANDS a Rise of a knight 2

SeethingSwarm responds:

Awesome!
Thanks for your in-depth review. All your feedback helps and there are some really good ideas. Im so glad you liked it!

Nice

NIce game but the heavy hit was pretty much useless after the first level. With some tweeks a sequel would be awesome.

SeethingSwarm responds:

Yeah Im reading all the reviews and taking in as much as I can to ensure an improvement on future games. Thanks for the review :)
