Reviews for "Paccoland"
not bad
cool game design
got boring quick but still fine
keep em comin
Really Frustrating.
As soon as i started playing this, i noticed two things.
1.Everything in this game derives from pac-man, pretty much labeling it as a clone.
2.The control scheme is just terrible
Although the grahpics are great and the animation is smooth, the fact that you move your character around with the mouse takes so much out of the game. If it was the arrow keys or the WASD keys, it would probably be much better.
Nothing is very original in this game. The one monster i came to that wasn't a ghost was just a bigger version of the ghost. It didn't have any extra features, it just moved around like any other enemy. Of course, i only got to that level. It's not easy to play this game using the mouse.
The only thing i see that IS original in this game is the control scheme. Which is, of course, terrible. If you're trying to get away from an enemy, the best you can do is make yourself fly across the screen. Sure, there's a brake, but it's not as if you can just go where you want with a simple keystroke. No, you have to charge your mouse up in the exact direction you need to go, then continue doing that until you collect all the coins and reach the exit.
The weirdest thing i noticed is that you act as if pac-man had not influenced the game at all. There's no mention to pac-man in the description, you describe the ghosts as "hungry monsters", and, of course, your character's name is "pacco". Sure, you added a few things like conveyer belts, and called the monsters and objects different things, but all in all, it's almost exactly like pac-man.
The control scheme is a huge problem and should really be fixed if you decide to make a sequel. Using the WASD keys would make this game much easier, and a lot less frustrating. 2/5, 4/10.
okay
fun at the beging but gets boring and kind of hard
not great
not as addictive as a game should be...
