Reviews for Ground Jumper V2

[Kammce]

needs work but very fun

An 7 out of 10 because of the graphics, the difficulty to jump at the beginning, the interface, and the fact that you never really told me how to play the game(But i figured it out).
Things that could make this game better:
1) Make it so that you can save your self even though you start to fall
2) When I fell I couldn't see the ground... maybe you could add that also
3) Put more detail into the games graphics
4) Use [mouse.hide();] so that I don't have to see the mouse when I play the game
5) Make the stars more bright I can barely see them
6) animate the stick figure or change it change it to a real character

Hope this helps. Overall this is a fun and addicting game.

Lacks things. A lot.

Ok, this is one of the "ok" games i've played so far.
the idea is good, but, it lacks the execution.

first things first, the detail and quality was kind of disappointing. The stickman was just some kind of object that jumps hire when it hits a platform. The platform wasn't even a ground. as soon as the stickman hits it, it makes the stickman jump higher.

the good thing is that the simplicity made this game quite addicting. i was able to play for about 5 minutes until i got bored of the repetitive background and platforms. when i try falling, the falling was a bit frustrated cause there was no reaction to the stickman while he was falling for miles and it also took a friggin long time to fall. the stars in the background were just too dim to see. what's the point of the background anyway, if it's just black and doesn't have anything interesting?

music choice was ok, try to have more variety of em.

suggestions:
- make the stickman actually react to whatever you do.
e.g.: instead of making the platform disappear instantly, how about allowing the stickman to perform a motion of jumping b4 you remove the platform? also when he's falling, try adding the action of stickman waving its arms and legs when he is falling helplessly. you can possibly add a scream-in-agony sound effects too.
-make the falling much speedier.
e.g. when falling, every second increases the speed of the stickman falling, and by the time when he reaches the ground, he splatters.
-remove the mouse from the flash during the gameplay
-need instructions!
e.g.: how do you jump, what do you need to get higher scores, etc.
- the change of music or background due to achieving certain score or height.
e.g.: from the bottom, the background is pure skyish-blue with clouds and stuff, as you go higher, you see the space, also seeing stars, moons, planets, etc.
- make sure something happens other than achieving higher score so that it keeps the interest level high.
- the moving speed of the camera was ok. try to make it move more dynamically so that the gameplay gets more intensive.

good job, but i don't think there was much effort was put into this.

your collision routines need work....

it's a neat little game -- reminds of some early commodore 64 stuff. You need to revamp your bump mapping so that flash can tell whether the player is landing on a platform or merely touching one from beneath. As it stands, it's sufficient to bump your head on a platform above yourself and have that considered a successful jump. This detracts from the gameplay.

Otherwise - not too bad.

Looks promising.

It looks like it may be good after a little more work.

1. instructions. even is the game is simple there are a lot of braindead people so please ut instruction on how to play.

2. more gameplay. Simple games are okay but only last so long. and esspecially if you have ahigh score system you may want to make getting a highscore worth it more. probably add some powerups or maybe an initial large leap in the begining. and levels are always a plus.

3. a better background. Not the most important thing but you may wanna look into that. A nice background can bring mnore interest into a game.

unfortuantely I'm playing this on a com that has no sound so I can't say much on that. but like I said it looks promising so I'm gonna vote 2 and rate 4. I hope I see a third one in the near future.

TOO SIMPLE

NOT ENOUGH ANIMATIONS. COULD BE BETTER.
