Reviews for "Random Heroes"

I like it!

I like the graphics, gameplay, music and level design., good job!
I give you 8 because this game could be even great with some adjustments like:
- tune up game balance and difficulty (too easy right now)
- the upgrades are cool, but not challenging... you can easily buy the last weapon and after that, you just don't care about the other weapons (the laser should be harder to get)
- the level design is nice too, but after you get the laser, you don't care anymore (about money, enemies, paths) and just rush the levels to advance
- unlocked characters should have some special skill
- achievements are not challenging

...but the game is interesting enough
to keep you playing until the end, good job!
:)

Insert summary here.

Usually, in games like these, I wait to purchase anything until the first time I die. When that actually happened (some time after the first boss), I had enough to get the laser gun and four or five other upgrades. From that point on, the game just felt tedious and bland. I found myself running through spikes and enemies just o get to the end of each level. To be honest, at least half the fun I get out of these games is working to upgrade my character. Beyond that, there was nothing interesting to hold my attention (though I did finish it). I hate giving negative reviews for games people obviously spent a while making, but this game could be better with the right tweaks.

awsome

a little short easy game

very good

good graphics
simple game play

great game

Short and easy, but it was amusing

Cool metroid-style game, but:
* It was maybe it was too easy, specially the bosses.
* It was a bit short (the level length was ok, but maybe there were too few levels).
* Upgrades ended too early; the big ones were too cheap.
Maybe it would be better to increase the difficulty more on last levels; put harder enemies that require more powerful guns that kill more and make huger explosions, more upgrades (maybe unlockable?), harder bosses that do more things than just jumping and shooting.

And now, some tips for gamers:
* Get the laser ASAP. It rocks and isn't too expensive. Also get all the life upgrades. The books help too. Guns with more damage seem to be better than fast ones.
* Spikes don't hurt much (only 1 hit point), so if you must run away don't hesitate to jump on them (but try to avoid them).
* Water slows you down a lot, so if you need to run, jump.
* Still robots are invulnerable (I think) unless they're shooting. So stand near them a few steps, wait for them to open, shoot quickly so he only shoots once, and jump the fire ball.
* The end boss could be killed without losing a single life point (well, I couldn't, but it could be done). It just shoots 3 fire balls and jumps. Simply wait for the first one to actually touch you and then jump quickly, so that the first ball doesn't actually harm you, the 2nd one passes under you, and then jump again to avoid the 3rd one. Move to another position and repeat.

Good, but easy

I enjoyed the gameplay, graphics, and music, but it needed some added difficulty. The enemies needed more AI to make them less predictable, especially the bosses. Overall, I enjoyed it beginning to end.
