Reviews for "Soul of the Katana"

way way too much needed

This game was good, but needs alot of work! I mean when whats the point of collecting the coins? you need to have an upgrade system....these are what save games! Use it so that you can buy better weapons/moves/throwing weapons/or even magic attacks or something!

The drawing was great, but the game was lacking alot of depth, kind of gets boring real quick! One thing I hate is that you can literally jump over all of the guys on your way to the boss, thus making it way too easy to just get to the boss unhit! Now that your at the boss all you have to do is press down and continue a strong attack sequence, I did this for the first 3 bosses and found it super easy!

I dont know if there is supposed to be a story or if there was some kind of error on my computer but there was no dialogue at all, when the box would apear at the bottom of the screen, it would just be blank...if you ment for storyline fix the error of it not appearing, if there was no story....make one!

Good drawing and animation, fluid, but needs some work on the jumping...otherwise great start!

good game but...

good game but i agree with my fellow ng users, it needs to have an upgrade system and the game was short of something. at the first boss he jumped outside of the arena and i couldnt finish it. also i think that there should be a benefit for killing enemys. and also the samurai looked a little awkward when he jumped. however it was very well animated and i look forward to your future flash projects.

ps. a little something from japan, the 'coins' were actually yen.

Nice movement.

But the attacks seem alittle hard to pull off

Good but SPACEBAR is a little tricky to hit for jump when your left hand is on the ZXC and your right hand is on the arrow keys.

Suggest ARROW UP to jump so player does not lose finger positions.

Also you have text boxes appear with no text. Suggest you make it silly text or something.

Kind of entertaining

However there wasn't really a plot at all or a reason why you were killing anyone. You could get to the boss by simply jumping over every enemy and boss fights ended pretty quick by using combo moves, they didn't even land a hit. If you added a story behind it and made it more worthwhile to kill enemies, like stopping you from advancing to the boss until you've killed them all it would be much better. Otherwise the graphics were good and it ran smoothly.
