Reviews for "Rise"

The worst thing is, you don't have any choices or differences in fight

Example Barbarian:

Let's imagine the damage dealt is 5, so:

Slash: Damage: 5
Roar: needs 4 rounds: Damage: 0+3*1.2*5=18 (4 x Slash = 20)
Headbutt: Half damage done, half received. I never had an opponent, which dealt more damage than me but i gave up at stage 100. Until then it has been absolutely useless.
Stab: Average Damage with 40% Armor: 0.65*5*1.4=4.75 (Slash=5)
Strike: Damage: 5+?
Charge: Damage: 0+2*5=10 (2 x Slash = 10)

So why won't you ever use anything different than strike? You have to be more precise in your calculations. If you have to wait some rounds for the dealt damage, this has to be an advantage.

It was a nice concept, the little twist at the end was alright, and all the Borderlands references were nice, but I wouldn't really consider this an Ace among the games here. Don't get me wrong, it has a bunch of potential, if you through some more work into it, maybe turn it into a full rpg that requires me not to just use one attack over and over, throw in some side quests, more NPCs, etc, I really think it could be a fantastic game. Keep up the good work!

the plot twist (if you can call it that?) at the end was cute, but i felt like it just took way too long to get up there

also, it was BORING getting up there. perhaps add more random events so that you could have a say in the matter? most of the random events were beneficial (random bonuses, ect), and i only got one that sucked (the mana crystal one); perhaps you could have events that could be ambiguous, and reward you or punish you or do nothing at all depending on what you choose to do (dig through the rubble to find an artifact, or get bitten by an angry rat and lose hp?? smth like that)

also, as mentioned before, the store offered crap randomly, most of the time stuff you didn't need. perhaps if it offered a larger variety of random items (like three at once?), you'd have a better chance of getting the hp pot you needed or whatever. but that only works if you have a larger inventory of items to sell, so i dunno about that : /

In all honesty, this is the worst game I have ever played on Newgrounds and I have been lurking here since the early 2000s. No battle animations, no in depth fighting system, just stagnant characters and music all while pressing a single button. I usually would give something for the effort, but to be frank I don't see any.

Shit
