Reviews for "Cube Colossus"
fantastic
You've done a great job. The game kept me up for hours and was challenging and balanced at the same time.
Now for some constructive criticism.
The concept is reasonably original, but the storyline can get in the way at times. If I am replaying a certain level for the 15th time (Chapter 17, say), I really want to skip all the dialogue - spending 20 seconds at the end watching the same sentences over and over is boring. And having the same button skip story at the start as well as use/waste your special during the story mid-level can really tick off people...
The graphics are great, but the screen becomes too crowded - at some point I can no longer tell between my shots and the enemy's. Different colors can help here, smaller projectiles too. Keep it pretty, though - I am sick of vector geometry shoot'em'ups.
Upgrade system was certainly welcome, but I want to be able to tell what a particular upgrade does - otherwise it's just a bunch of pointless "levels" - how do I know whether upgrading shield from 50 to 51 is better than Energy from 30 to 31? On the plus side, buying different weapons tells you exactly how much damage you are dealing...
Controls - again, quite original, but I didn't find use for most of them - either it was a level where I'd mash the 'target nearest' button all the time, or I wouldn't touch anything other than the mouse
Overall, though, I thoroughly enjoyed it. Loki was the tough cookie, I had to upgrade a lot before I had a chance, then had a couple of close calls before finally blasting him away... fun. The hint for getting the Excalibur was nice post-factum, but you don't really expect it, since nothing else of the sort had mattered in the game before, and there's no indication elsewhere about what you need to do.. so most people will waste all their time maxing out all their weapons and skills before they find out the specials are still locked. I would add something to the weapon description to indicate that you need to do something out of the ordinary.
Anyway, for the record, beating Loki with a Loki ship and mines is a total blast, if very surprising... to the other people playing this now, enjoy!
Awesome!
This is a fantastic game! I really hope for a sequel!
Nice!
Great game, cool concept. I really like what you did with using mouse control and WSAD to aim. It kept it interesting and fun, highly addictive too. But what was up with the horrible grammar? Overall, excellent game, a sequel would be fuckin awesome!
How do i get the excalibur weapon?
I've beaten everything, lvled up everything to its max, even the weapons lvl, and i keep scearching for things i could get to unlock it but it still remains "LOCKED" eh..
But anyway! besides that little annoyance, its the best shooter on newgrounds, you won that for me with flying colors, good job mate, you have a strong talent for games!!! can't wait to see more!
but seriously, I really wunna know how to get that weapon o.o its bugging me soo bad >.<
