Level 6
The game seems great so far, but at level 6 after heading into the darkness and falling, I fall into the next room and through the floor, into a black pit where I can't move. Resetting the level doesn't work either, it keeps me in that spot. :( I really want to continue, so how do I get around this?
wtf is with Lvl6?
dude the boss is bull I mean how are you going to kill it if it keeps turtling
Seriously.
Great!
Well, everyone has already marked the glitches a lot so there's no point talking about it.
Storyline is great, many see it as incomplete but it is the fisrt part of a serie, so play the rest and you won't be disappointed.
Graphics, art style and music perfectly fit. Overall nice mysterious atmosphere.
MINOTAUR BOSS:
I think everyone complaining about it are just a bit impacient. Be methodic folks! Yeah, it takes a little while to get the way, but if you pay a little attention you'll notice that you can block the spinning attack (x) while presing the arrow in the monster's direction and as soon as it stops, if you got some reflexes you can hit him with a combo then instantly perform a charged attack (down+z a few milliseconds) and PUSH HIM BACK... (that way the spikes aren't a problem) then run forward and try a combo again, if interrupted just block and repeat the operation. Do it a few times and it gets easier each time since the minotaur gives you everytime more time to charge the "down" attack.
Great series! Cheers.
Silhouettes and Glitches
The concept of the game was very nice, but I feel like you should have detailed the story of our warrior a little more. It's like a puzzle missing some few - but important - pieces.
Story 7/10
The animation was by far the most beautiful I have seen on this site. Portraying the characters by using distinct silhouettes was very beautiful and very well done.
Graphics 10/10
Music I found to be very fitting. However, I would have liked some voice overs to be done, and sound (rawrs) coming from the Bosses - like the Minotaur for example. Hearing its growl would have been spine chilling.
(But this is the first of your games that I have played, so if you added more Sound Effects, I do not know yet. This review is just for this game.)
Music and Sound 9/10
This definitely would have been more entertaining minus all the glitches. They took away the fun x( Sometimes the character would travel onwards even after I've stopped pressing the arrow button - not good when you're at the edge of a cliff. It seems rather sensitive.
Overall Game Play 6/10
The game was amazing, but the glitches...ugh. They frustrate me >_>
Thanks for providing the site with an amazing game nonetheless ^_^
Way too many glitches
This game is very fun, do not get me wrong, but needs some serious polishing.
I give you an eight out of ten due to a good story, good musical selection, very nice graphics, and a fun and unique concept found in only very well done games.
However, the glitches that the game has just takes the fun out of playing it, and makes it seem more like a chore to get past rather than an entertaining challenge.
For instance (and I know that this level has received a lot of criticism), the minotaur boss needs to be completely redone. Each and EVERY time I attempted to execute a combo -the only way to incapacitate it- the boss would begin to spin it's sword until I was pushed into the spikes. Every single time. Eventually it just became irritating and the game almost instantly lost it's fun factor and put me in a bad mood.
Overall, a generally fun game, but too glitchy to be entertaining all the way throughout.
