It's definitely a good start. I seriously hope you keep up with this, you've got a serious talent.
Reviews for "Spellsword"
If I may be completely honest and critical, this looks like a great thing that may once become a good game... however, so far, it is less a game and more a story told with few elements inbetween where you can move your character. You CAN interact with the environment but there is no challenge... and even the storyparts seem a little bit hurried. This is understandable if you see it as a prototype.
Besides, the story has a few plotholes here and there, at least as far as I played. The characters and the culture are explained but little is known about the whole world.
Also, it is buggy, especially the level in the ruins. I went in there, had to pick up the key to the further area three times before being able to pass through (it respawned at the same place) and suddenly, two copies of my characters were walking through the world...
But I played your other games so far, Hyptosis, and I am certain that there is great potential, knowing your creations so far. I'd recommend you to continue and work on this one, a little bit here and there... maybe, this either becomes more complete or even grows into a proper game one day. Good luck with that!
Hyptosis responds:
Thanks for the honest feedback. I'll take it all into consideration and it means a lot to me!
Seems like a diamond in the rough. It looks like it could become a great game if you worked on it. The colours are lovely and the song is relaxing. I would have been a lot more comfortable while playing if I could have moved in eight directions instead of four.
Whether you finish it or not, you can be proud of your work!
Good concept and story line I look forward to the full version, also you should install a combat system, hell go a head and use the turn base. Otherwise keep it up and Good luck with the funds. :D
The game looks good but at least add something like Pre-Alpha in the title or something else but, to be honest everything about the game so far is alright i would only love to the the combat before giving more things to say.
Also. . . is there going to be combat ?
Hyptosis responds:
Yes there will be, it's just, building a combat engine is almost like building an entire new game. But it's like, 20% finished now.
