The puzzles ranged from very straightforward to really obscure - I still have no idea how the green-pink-blue code was meant to work even after looking up the answer on the walkthrough. In some ways that made the game more interesting, but also very frustrating. Art was simple but effective, animation perhaps too simple, story completely irrelevant. Very mixed result overall, not awful but not great imo, okay for a brief distraction.
Reviews for "Nova the Astronaut"
JackAstral responds:
Ahaha fair call. It was suppose to represent the order that you enter the numbers, aha.
Thanks for the detailed review- I totally agree with the points you mentioned :) I'm uploading a patch soon to improve some iffy graphics.
An overall short game, my only complaint is that it's difficult to finish without full use of the walkthrough (and I still can't find the golden astronaut token)
JackAstral responds:
Thanks for reviewing + playing! I'll look into maybe making the puzzles a little easier to follow- thanks for the suggestion!
I got stuck at the 'enter the code' thing on screen...4? The one after the portal. I am entering it correctly, I've even confirmed with the walkthrough, but it's not allowing me to progress. The game seems good, but it's too buggy.
JackAstral responds:
The code has to be entered in all caps :S I should probably add in a notice so people know- thanks for pointing that out!
Straightforward kind of game. Mixed hidden object ,point and click, and 2d scroller. Puzzles aren't too difficult but I did go to the walkthrough on some. Plenty of medals here. All around worth the 5 minutes.
It was a good space point and click game.
The medals work, and I earned them all.
JackAstral responds:
Thanks man. Congrats :)
