Reviews for "Grandpa, Run!"

This game is very simple, but it is not very unique save for the aliens coming. I found only one problem and that is that when you die the music will turn off and when you respawn it will take about three seconds to load.

Rixium responds:

Hey, Thanks. The music is loaded from an online source to reduce file sizes, may be the problem, sorry if it's an inconvenience.

the graphics arent too great, some of the traps like the ground falling out from below you at the last second will really piss people off! the controls arent too bad, so thats good.

Rixium responds:

Thanks. I agree about the traps, but I didn't want the game being too easy. Those traps used to be much more difficult.

I can't put my finger on it, but this has an undeniable charm. The music, the style, the Grandpa, it just works.
The jumping is a bit weird, but it's workable. Without the charm you guys put into it, this wouldn't be very good. But with it, I can honestly give this 5 stars.

Rixium responds:

Thanks a lot for the kind feedback. I was aiming to make the game so much more but it became harder to work on as my amateur coding continued to restrict me.

The game is a simple platformer and a decent little game. There are no instructions in the game but it's easy to figure out. Interesting but I feel that most would find this to be a waste of time unless they are really bored. However I would be interested in knowing a story behind this due to the alien that shows up when you die.

Rixium responds:

Thanks for the feedback. I've been thinking about a story, but I won't be making it any time soon until I've worked on a few more projects.

Great job! THis is kinda like a randomized version of Aztec Challenge 2 for Atari 800

Rixium responds:

Thanks for kind words :) Aztec Challenge was a great game and it's nice to have it compared.
