Reviews for "GunMission"

The game is good but there is a few flaws
-First one is a control but : When you crouch and you turn to face the other direction your gun still fire in the direction you originally crouched in, forcing the player to get up to crouch again in the right direction. In situation of life or death it usually means death and once of the main reason I couldnt complete the story.
-Second is a design flaw, most of the time the presence of boxes means that there is an incoming ennemy. All I had to do was to spot the edge of a box and shoot immediately, killing most of the ennemies before they would even spot me.

And here are some more minor flaws I spotted :
-Putting computers everywhere when you show in the tutorial you can interact with them is kind of misleading, you should make a particular sprite for the computers the player can actually interact with.
-Sometimes ennemies that spawn through scrolling disapear if you scroll back far enough and never comes to you.
-Walking doesnt seem to help catching the ennemies by surprise but maybe it's me.

Overall the game is pretty difficult, the healf or armor drops arent very present in the first levels and the bug make it all the more frustrating. maybe an option to retry a level would be nice instead of a game over screen and then everything to complete all over again, the levels are rather big so it's quite tedious to do them all over again.

Thanks so much for your review!

I'm now VERY aware of the crouching/shooting glitch thanks to all of your comments - I'll get that fixed ASAP :)

Your idea about a special interactive computer sprite is a GREAT one! Currently there are only a handful of interactive computers, but making them stand out from the pool of identical screens with their own sprite would make life much better.

Yeah, walking isn't super useful, is it? Honestly, the only reason why it's still in the game is because initially, you walked by default and had to hold SHIFT to run. That turned into a game where you were always holding shift....and seemed unnecessary. Walking will become much more useful in GunMission 2 :)

I was thinking about an option to continue your game, but I also really like ultra-punishing old-school games :) I don't think I can swing infinite continues....but maybe 2 ;)

a few glitches, I like the idea, but the glitches ruin it, also enemys fire continuously when seeing her making dodging their bullets near impossible, I lost all lives on what I assume was the first level because of this, again great idea but ya

I like it a bunch. Retro feel, controls are easy and fun. Nice work!

RyThom responds:

Thank you! Glad you had a good time playing!

Where´s that sequel at?

RyThom responds:

Working on it! :D Once I update this game with a fix for the crouching/shooting glitch, I'm going to concentrate on the sequel. Feel free to let me know any ideas, hopes and dreams you might have for it!

I really like it. It's awesome!
You worked hard on this game, and the result is awesome!
Keep up the great job!

RyThom responds:

Thank you very much! I did work hard on it, not wanting to release something I wouldn't want to play myself. I'll keep making games if you keep playing them!
