Goldsickle's game Reviews on Newgrounds

[Shword]

You're probably making a lot of games but this concept should be expanded upon for something bigger.

It has potential.

Probably could use some sort of control refining, like being able to aim the swords in 360 using the mouse.

StuffedWombat responds:

I actually thought about the 360 option when making this.

I did not implement it because

1) it would have felt too much like portal
2) My engine does not support right mousclicks. You would have only been bale to have one sword at a time.

But maybe I will find a way to implement mouse controls into the bigger version i hope to make soon.

Some may have mentioned it but the game needs checkpoints and not force players to start over.

Starting over a stage is one thing but restarting the game for losing all lives is another.
The "limited lives before game over" format is a relic of the past from arcade days.
There's no need for them to be around today.
I only got to stage 3 and because of this formatting, I can't be bothered to redo everything and upgrade my gun all over again just to see the rest of the game.

I haven't tried all the guns but it's creative to have different guns that with different effects, such as the shrink ray.
But I guess things got a little imbalanced when the shrink ray can be used to defeat everything with one shot.
I managed to upgrade my gun to maximum, so the shrink ray recharges quite fast.

I also dislike side-scrolling shooters where you can only shoot left or right.
Might be fun 30 years ago but not something I'd ask for in the current generation.

playgb responds:

Thanks for the feedback. Yes, the special rays kill the enemy with one shoot, the bosses are killed with one shoot only when they are in danger mode, and the second boss is not affected by any ray.
