Got really boring really fast.
I got through the first arena and was not at all compelled to go on. It's the same very tedious gameplay with very tedious enemies. Was very well put together, just not fun for very long.
Reviews for "Newgrounds: Retaliation"
great art
and music too but its very glitchy make the move ments more easier and faster
Controls killed it.
Nothing about the controls felt good.
Its ok...
Needs more actions because well the game, TO me would seem a little bit more fun if you would be able to shoot down when you jump and also I think it would be better if when you jump off from a high place that you don't get HURT when you land!!
You should also consider maybe some way to guard for pico and maybe play as different people and also have upgrades with also the option to have other people join you as well!!!
Otherwise its an "OK" game...
Needs some gameplay tweaking
The enemies are varied and decently smart, the animations are crisp and smooth, but there are some really breaking gameplay problems.
-If you want jump recovery, only have it when you fall far enough to take damage. Jump recovery is painfully slow for a game with so much platforming.
-Pico should be more agile. The incredibly wide turning radius combined with the jump recovery makes me feel like I'm playing a very sluggish character, not Pico
-Fall damage gets a bit ridiculous. I take damage sometimes when running down ramps a little too fast.
-The aiming animations for ducking and shooting from walls are painfully slow. Speed it up a bit.
Tweaks like these will make it seem a bit more like you're actually playing Pico, who's infamously represented as an incredibly agile, fast, acrobatic character who can really use his gun.
