Reviews for The Rise of a Knight

[Darmoth85]

Really good job

The atmosphere of the traveling scenes (running through the forests) to the simple but interesting story told by the text. The artwork was enjoyable, it fit the game quite well.

Unfortunately once I reach the spiderqueen I always get stunned and held until dead. I've tried jumping, blocking, I don't know. It's too frustrating to continue at that point. Not just that it's hard, but the spiders try and get behind you, yet the some how damage you even if they're facing away from you, not to mention that if they attack while you're jumping in mid air you instantly end up pinned between the two spiders. You can't simply block as they're on either side of you, and thus you'll get tag teamed and finally barfed upon by the spider queen.

So no, I haven't gotten past that point. If I may suggest, a check point from the start of the 'boss battle' so that if you're going to get killed repeatedly, you don't need to start from the beginning of the level. Thus one might concentrate on actually beating the spider.

Thanks a lot :)
I agree that I maybe should have made the spiderqueen and the caves a different level, sorry about that. the best way to kill spiders is with the heavy attack because your sword goes real low and it reaches on both sides of you, first behind you and then in front.

A good thing to kill the queen would be to learn its rythm, but even better is just to run past it before it spits that goo and hit it when its running away on the roof. Shield when it comes at you from the ground and then when it passes you, run after it using your quick attack constantly... I hope this helps :)

Geat that you liked the game, and thanks for the review!

It was fun!

It's a really fun Fantisy game, the story line was good too! I like the way that it was the Goblins who took the princess, and how the knight was brave and fought back. The music really when in to the game, it was making the game much more better and it wasn't so stuped, it was pleasent and nice to listen to. The animation of the charactors could be better but for me, it was already good enough! Altough the spiders scared me XD. Still, the point when you kill a goblin and he kills himself with his own weapon was funny, I admit, this game is good! But I hated the fact that it takes so long just to get to the end of the stage, the guy is kinda slow, and it takes a while to finish the round. 9 stars for the point of the long stages, it should have a running tool, but it was good for now, good luck on the other games :D real big fan of Armor Games!

That god damn spider got me a dozen times >.< . Still enjoyed the game. The fact that I kept coming back should say something about either the game or my character.

SeethingSwarm responds:

Oh, nice to see that some people still play this game! Even I struggle my ass off with the big spider! She does have a system though, and once you figure it out it can be done off course. When she comes at you from below, either block or use your power move. When she comes from above, dodge her acid slime and then run behind her while jumping and constantly keeping the attack button in. It is much easier said than done though, especially when you have to take care of the small spiders as well. Anyway, thanks for the review and I'm glad you liked the game! It's one of the first games I've ever made and it has many flaws, but it's nice that some people still enjoy this old game of mine. Thanks for the nice score!
