A good game! I have never played a jousting game before! Good mechanics and music! I hope for a sequel!
Reviews for "The Lance!"
Lance-An-Awful-Lot
It's a nice timewaster with some good humor, sounds and atmosphere.
(With a very lengthy process to advance, though - moar gold!!!!!)
One thing that "bugs" me: When I have more than ten items, I cannot access any item that follows in my inventory, resulting in not being able to sell or equp anything that's lurking down there...
Needs more
Thought this was a great game and different than what I have seen before. There is alot of room for improvement though I believe.
First the upgrades cost alot so you wind up finishing the game long before trying many of them, also once you figure out the trick to getting them to leave certain areas open it gets repetitive. Is there a purpose to the leveling up? It seemed like the xp gain was pointless since nothing new was available. I did notice the trick about leaving the game and coming back to repeat the same match to gain money but didnt feel like wasting time going in and out just for upgrades. It took me 6 generations and about 6 bouts to finally beat the champ, mostly due to slight movements on previous tries. I also noticed the glitch where sometimes it wouldnt let you select the weapon, I found that exiting out of the shop and going back in fixed this for me.
It was a good game though and enjoyed it maybe a #2 with some changes would be good.
Unique
Really unique, since I started to play I was ON the game, cool weapons and the idea that since forst generation your jousting with a level 25 and no chances to win WOE was unexpected.
GREAT GAME.
Theres just one spike on my A*S on this game, many times when I tried to by a new weapon the game didn't let me and needed to refresh page, I refreshed a hell of a time and I was jousting with the guy I just beat, so it was a hell of annoying, but the game was pretty cool so it doesn't deserve a bad score.
Keep on the good work.
Entertaining. Speed it up.
It was a fun ride, but I didn't feel compelled to stick around and purchase all the items despite the store being well stocked. This mostly stems from the delay between rounds and that the money earned never seemed to escalate from one round to the next and made money earning rather time consuming.
I'd recommend (if The Lance part Deux is to exist) that the time between rounds is sped up to keep players motivated, and it would probably have the effect of making the game feel more action-packed as well.
Otherwise, great concept. Quite a bit of fun and really seems like it could have quite a bit more depth added to it. Good job!
