Eh. Maybe I need a better processor, every now and again I get some game lag. My processor's the oldest part of my computer by now, silly little Core 2 Duo. Part of me thinks that a flash game shouldn't require much of a processor, but it could be a number of other things, and I was still able to play through the game. The only thing I wanted to complain about in terms of battle mechanics was one time when two of my party members were dead and the last one was frozen. If all 3 died, I would have had the backup come in and I would be able to revive most of my team, but instead I completely lost that turn and nearly wiped. Simple suggestion, offer the option of switching out a knocked out party member even if no other member is capable of performing any actions. Also seems odd to me that I can switch out stunned characters but not frozen ones, but that could just be a nuance.
My best performance was when I didn't worry about my time at all. Whenever I broke my old record, I became conscious of my performance and lost. Got scores of 52 and 58 seconds before I beat the game. When I did, I relaxed because time didn't matter anymore and went from a 58 second record to 87.17. I would have kept going too, but someone barged into my room and distracted me. It's really a game that doesn't seem to get harder, the only thing that might make it harder is stress and anxiety.
A lot of things I liked, spent a few hours playing through it, but I can't help feel that it was lacking something. Story's one thing, but it's fairly minor when it comes to flash games, I think the boss was a little bit too easy. Beat it the first time without having most of my upgrades, the wizards toward the end gave me more trouble than the boss. I say 4/5, not that I don't think it's a great game, it just felt like something was missing.
Having played Portal 1 and 2 myself, it really doesn't feel like this introduces anything new. That is to say, if you can play the original games, I'd still go for that. Being that this is free to play and runs off Unity, I'd say it's a nice game. I'm more of an idea person myself, and I just can't see myself giving this game a 5 because it just feels like a toned down version of Portal. There are a lot of details that I noticed while playing Portal that wasn't in this game, due to either engine limitations or oversight. I'd say 3/5... I would say 3.5 if I could, but parody games really aren't as appealing.
@Lulani
There is a new element introduced in every chapter. Once you figure out the new element, the solution should be obvious.
@blade123
It's possible, but there is no reward for it. If you can't figure it out, you're not really missing out on anything.
Good concept, mediocre execution. I felt that the game was too easy, and as others have said, there should be more difference in the endings, something that makes me want to try and get every possible ending, otherwise what's the point of having multiple endings? I rated it 3/5, the only thing I liked about it was the concept. I'm not sure if you've made other games, if this is a first attempt, I'd say you're heading the right direction, just needs a bit of polishing.
Has anyone ever thought that these "invasions" as people see them are really just alien children playing a game of chess? I mean, they send down mechanical droids, and to them it may seem like a very menial drone, something that even their local school bully wouldn't be afraid of. To them, they may see Earth as a chessboard, and we're just playing along, sending our "toys" to play with them!
Humans at their finest moment. Someone's supplying this tripod weapons and armor for a profit, no doubt, while the military feels the need to send in ground infantry that fry at the mere sight of this creature. Yeah, let's send in stronger troops over time, instead of just crushing it straight out, maybe then we'll figure out how to kill the other dozen that's on their way...
@JackVermicelli
To be fair, I'd be kinda like "meh" too if I were in that world. For one thing, how would they know that you were appointed to unite the nation? You have a relic that men lust for, I doubt you'd be going around in a nation ruined by civil war exclaiming that you have something they'd kill you for. Also, to repeat myself, civil war. If they were an opposing faction, of course they'd be unfriendly, maybe even hostile. If they were on your side before the war, the might be tired of fighting it, and thus be neutral. Now... I should play the game to make sure what I said doesn't sound retarded. I just liked having a voiced intro...
Bosses are way too easy, difficulty of levels vary too greatly, there's no reason to buy any of the melee weapons; if you want to use a melee weapon use the ones that you get from bosses. Could use some polishing up, but hey who doesn't enjoy a game of blowing shit up? Oh also, a distinct lack of an ending.
My favorite part of this game was making a button cry. That alone bumped this up from a 3/5 to a 4/5 for me. Game was fun, just a bit short for my taste.
This game didn't warm my heart, all it did was bring up bitter emotions and an urge to kill! >:O Ahem, unresolved personal issues kyahaha. I say 4/5, mostly because I tend not to rate things 5/5.
Audacity7392, it's because in this game, you're basically climbing on a giant creature. I assume then that the spasms are to replicate their movement, after all they're not going to just stand there and do nothing. Maybe they're just walking around or something, but to you, it's like an earthquake. In terms of the game, it's probably to make things a little bit more difficult, this game is by far not a difficult game, even with the spasms, so I didn't mind it.
