Reviews for The Raven, shadow subject

Ignore the trolls

The graphics and sound design are excellent, and the stealth mechanic is a refreshing change that never really loses its classic platforming feel. A game that combines simple "boop" jumping with a cast of compelling, if cartoonish, characters, all under a well written sci-fi premise that can be appreciated or skipped depending on the player's preference, is something to be commended.

So, maybe this game deserves an 8 and not a 10, but I am offsetting the shallow, unreflective, and vague reviews that are lowering the score of an incredibly well designed game. Incidentally, isn't there some way to automatically ignore all comments that admit they are only reacting to ten seconds of a game?

not bad

The gameplay was ok, the story line was good, and were great. The only problem I could find was that the controlls were a bit skuggish. If you were running and then needed to suddenly turn in the other direction it would take a second for your character to respond (which got me killed many times). Other than that one flaw overall the game was excellent. Fix the controlls and it will be a 10.

Has great potential

I've only played up to level 4 so far (apologies) & I'm finding it to be quite good. However I feel it is getting repetitive already, even at this early stage, If there was weapons added and in general more creatures/beings to fight with or even the option to shoot down or temporarily disable the cameras It would become so much better. Bar that the voices and the general character portrayal didn't agree with me personally but that's just me nitpicking, overall its a very good game (especially if this is your first time) and I hope you continue to make games like this in general. Good luck.

I enjoy it

5 on pico meter. 8 on here. It's...eh, just a platformer without action. I really LOVE the art. I LOVE the music. I love the concept. But it is just so basic, hide in the shadows and avoid cameras. There should be some kind of action element, maybe a temporary disable of cameras if you get an item pickup. Of course, I got to stage 4 before I stopped.

I also like the voice overs and the cutscenes. They add some spice to it. The game itself is lacking some spice in the gameplay.
