Reviews for [BTNverse] Curse of the eastern god

That finale was incredibly lazy. Forcing the player to get through a level that is literally unbeatable is already pretty bad. Forcing them to suicide without a readily available method to do so, other than having to wait on a timer, is worse. Forcing them to do it multiple times? Pushing it. Also, this is more of a personal thing, but I HATE games that drive the whole "Oh well actually, this IS a game, and you should feel bad for wanting to enjoy PLAYING, you simpleton, you!"

If I wanted to get scorned for playing videogames, I'd talk to my family; I don't want the videogames themselves doing it.

thanks for the thoughtful review :)

The finale is lazy mostly because I only had 48 hours to make this game, so I ran out of time.
Also I'm not really scolding the player for playing video games, it's the opposite message that I had in mind actually :p

The bad guy is the one scolding you.

Nice game with some pretty enteratining dialogue, I played it to what I think is the end and had a good time. I was almost turned off at the beginning since the platforming feels a bit janky at first, but you get used to it.
Catchy music too, hope it passes judgement!

Thanks for playing 'till the end :)

Really cool game! the controls become unwieldy and fast at the end but it's got a lot of replay value

Edit: replay value comes from trying different options early on, like the hat, money and keys
Edit: Oh i had no choice in buying the hat :(

Thanks :)
I'll admit that "replay value" is not what I had in mind when making this game though :p
