It's pretty good

Obviously nothing too deep, but I had fun playing it. It's a nice little distractor.

My only piece of advice, if you want to improve it and get famous or whatever, is to make movement smoother. You need to stop holding one movement button to go in a different direction. I personally would've liked it if you could go diagonally or something, so that that problem wouldn't be there.

Otherwise, nice and fun.

Flame-Reaper responds:

Thanks glad you liked it.

The movement would be easy to make as you said. but i chose against it. I find in games that offer tha much freedom with movement people just go up and down, spraying bullets, i choose this controll setup to stop that, and add a bit more challenge to the player.

The best game I've ever played

You kept my asscheeks glued on the exact same spot on this seat for over an hour. For that, I congratulate you.

This is probably the best game I've played on NG. It had nice, stylish, suitable graphics, simply incredibly fun/addictivity, good-quality sound, and provided enough different upgrades to keep you hooked until the end for me, although I think I'll shortly be doing endless mode.

I can find no flaws, except for maybe a less repetitive soundtrack, but it's really still quite good.

Bravo.

Leonardo-Da-Finchy responds:

Well, thankyou. Arse-cheek glueing is another thing to add to Imminent's list of achievements. Good luck with defeat mode!

Good, but there are glitches

I liked it. It was fun. But I found some glitches, one of which was game-ruining. Aside from these, I thought it was excellent.

First of all, you could get caught up on the walls way easy. Like, insanely easy. It wasn't hard to get out, but it *was* annoying.

Second of all, the direction of the light wasn't the same direction you moved through the maze. I understand it's supposed to be like he's holding it in an arm, but it's damn hard to get used to, and arm positioning doesn't really matter on stick figures =)

Lastly, the worst bug (Minor spoilers, if you care), there's no way to finish the part where you need to jump over the pit, because there's no way to jump. I tried hitting every key on my keyboard, and none of them let me jump, and I died every time. So, I had to right click->play, and see the "ending," and missed all the gameplay in between.

If that last bug wasn't there, it would've been a 9 or 10, because I liked it. But I couldn't finish the game. See if you can fix it, or prove me an asshole by saying what I did wrong =)

Press space to jump i should have used up really

Fun

It's a fun game to play. I liked how each of the levels wasn't too hard, but not exactly easy. I couldn't find any glitches to speak of, so that's a good thing. Graphically, it was pretty good. The text, in particular, sticks out for some reason. Stylistically, the game was fun. Almost like a "target practice" kind of thing. I couldn't hear the sound too well, but from what I heard, it was good. Of course, I suppose the shooting counts for violence. And considering the style of game, it doesn't require interactivity or humor. Good job, man.

TrueDarkness responds:

Thanks man! I tried to make it failry relistic and I think that turned out pretty well =P
Thanks for the great review

Great

I thought it was very good and well-made.

My only gripe was it sometimes suffered minimal slowdown when the cursors would break into multiple pieces, and they all followed one general idea I didn't like too much. The whole "move the cursor and it stays there for a second, then disintigrates back" was repeated for all of the cursors. I would've liked something that just stayed static, or something more original than that one formula.

PixilProductions responds:

yeah, i know, its like that somtimes.

Great

Amazingly addictive, too.

Edvin responds:

Sleep with me =)

Good job!

I thought it was really good.

Out of curiosity, though, what happens when I do all 2060 fights? Can you even?

BoMToons responds:

you CAN do all 2060...but there's not really much point except seeing all of the dumb comments I included along the way. (the game will remember your progress though if you come back after closing the window)

Decently fun

Hey, it was good. Above-average, for sure. It got kind of repetitive, but the game itself was fun. I liked the triplet breakdown in the music, too.

DifferentName responds:

Yeah... that um... that triplet. That was great. I mean, the way that it... broke down. ... What? :p
