SO EPIC
Reviews for "Lotus Armageddon"
Wow, this really blew me away! This game had so many layers to it that made it such an exciting journey to get through it all: to be honest, I think the shooting gameplay by itself would've already been enough for me to call this great (super fun abilities to use, tons of cool enemies and bosses with varied moves, great levels and enemy formations to contend with, etc), but to have everything else on top of that was a real treat. I loved all of the little touches within the game that made it ooze so much charm and attention to detail, like the fact that the DOS prompt accepts other commands like DIR, and the way the game changes to reflect Gargul's taunts, and so on.
If I were to have any complaints, it would be that the rhythm gameplay felt a little sketchy/patchwork and out-of-sync with the music (though it was just a throwaway gag so it's forgivable) and that for me, personally, it kinda suffered from the SUPERHOT issue where I just wanted everyone to shut the hell up about their weird story that doesn't make sense and stop interrupting me from playing the damn game! Haha, I do like the story though, and hopefully you can just take that as a compliment to how addictive and fun your shooting gameplay was!
IT WAS REALLY GOOD
My hand hurst, and not because i left the game unfinished and went to jerk off to anime chicks (i did that AFTER beating the game jajaja) not but seriously, anyone who tries to play this game using the control arrows instead of the WASD is someone who wishes to lose their left hand, 0/10 would not recomend arrows, of course thats why i thank you deeply for putting the normal controls (even tho i completed half of the game using the arrows, hense my pain) but no matter, i still completed the game.
I had a ton of fun, i cant say anything else, this was super fun to play, i would recomend this to anyone who doesnt know what Newgrounds is to have a taste of what is all about, the sheer amount of decadent creativity that overflows this site like lava coming from a volcano (without the actual risk of being burned alive of course)
From the start, the story is amazing, all the character are great, you dont have a lot of time to meet them that much, but they do serve their purpose in the story (Space Elf is waifu) the comedic undertone of the Dance standoff and the mocking lines of Gargul everytime you lose are great, the gameplay is engaging, the way it changes from a story based game to an action shoot them up to a dance game was interesting (altough i still cant believe i actually winned first time that part, if i learned something after playing FNF and that ChainsawMan rythm game is that i SUCK at rythm games that are not Patapon 2 for the PSP) the graphic style is also top notch, Lotus is adorable, the enemies in the Space Elf game are a weird mix of Space and Bugs with some asian influence in those that come towards you with a conical hat (fuck those guys) and the main villain looks like a rejected antagonist of a Tim Burton animated film, the music is also amazing, metal is one of my favorites genres and it fits really well to the tone, overall, as i said, this is great, i couldn't stop until i finished the game, great work.
Now im going to celebrate with soup....yes soup, i got my wisdom teeth removed and thats the only thing i can eat right now.
jokes on you, i still got excel to help me do my homework
