Reviews for "Operation BlackKnife"

Great.

Not the most original thing, but I like it.

Also, I like the Mass Effect reference.

rytherix responds:

I referenced many other things, but not Mass Effect (although I am sure there were many cool things from ME that I could have used)
Please tell me what seems like a Mass Effect Reference

A great, fully realized game!

This is a game that practically oozes quality and innovation. The level of effort that has gone into making it must have been truly astounding.

The basic gameplay is fun enough, and could have made an interesting game all by itself, but rather than stopping there the player is introduced to feature after feature, all carefully explained so as not to overwhelm. Modules, upgrades, credits, weapons a shop...and then a powers menu (inspired by crysis perhaps?).

Huge distances, good looking ships and stations and atmospheric music all come together to give the player a great environment to fight in. Top all of that with a fleshed out (albit a bit standard) story, and there is really nothing to complain about. I have yet to encounter any bugs, but considering the scope of the game its to be expected. All in all...yeah, this is awesome.

Your review almost brought tears to my eyes ;-;
I like you....
lol, I think I am gonna post this one on my website =)

The powers menu was totally inspired by Crysis, and yes this game took a huge amount of time to develop.
Thank you for playing, and enjoying

Great :D

Loved this game so much? Good fights, great graphics, enthralling music. Btw at Pyrodraco, see this problem of yours? After the station is blew up your JAMMED in the wreckage and cant move, learn to read eh? :)

wow

how did you manage to put so much detail without it exeeding 3.85 MB?
btw what college might you be in if you dont mind? :)

rytherix responds:

Almost everything in the game uses native flash vector art and not imported bitmaps, and I had to make a hard choice in music compression to keep the size down.
I attend the University of Hawaii at Hilo, and I am pursuing a major in Computer Science (Attributes nothing to my Flash career =P)

On lvl 4

my contrls keep skipping and lagging what is that? i use google chrome
still tho game rules
