Bug Report:
Game froze after finishing the 2nd level for the 3rd time. I very quickly clicked the Upgrade button as soon as it appeared. My piranha was left on screen, music played, and the main menu buttons went away, but the Upgrade menu never appeared after waiting 2 to 3 mins. This may or may not have anything to do with the freezing, but I thought I'd give as much info as possible.
Suggestions:
Alternative controls would be nice. It can get a little annoying to move the mouse tiny amounts back and forth. The fish do not follow the mouse very well and often end up going in an odd direction away from the mouse. The menu screen animation takes too long and should be shortened. I found it annoying very quickly to wait 5-10 secs for the animation just to click Go or to get my upgrades quickly and move on. The animation after clicking 'go' could be shortened as well.
Definitely a fun game. It is addicting. It is hard to aim on a laptop, and even harder on a netbook. :P
Fun none the less. I love the complex skill tree.
Okay. Now that I've beaten it. I'll give it a 4/5. The game was great. Definitely fun and challenging, but I found the controls difficult without playing it in full screen. Perhaps another method for 'grabbing'? Use the mouse to aim the hands and maybe space bar to grab as an alternative to left clicking.
I also agree with another commenter that mentioned this game needed a way to start over after you beaten the game. Would be great to be able to start over again with all the items you've collected to try and get more.
Really enjoying this game. It gives me just the right amount of challenge I was looking for. Everytime I fall I swear, get back up again, and tell that wall or cliff that I /will/ get past you.
A wonderful game. ^^ I'm glad I paid attention in my Biology classes. This did great to supplement what I haven't studied in years. xD
I know a few teachers. Maybe they'll be able to suggest this to their students.
I gave it a 4/5. Its got great potential, but there are some things that could use some work.
As everyone here seems to agree, there really needs to be a hotkey system. Having to click through the menus in battle is difficult.
You may need to take another look at the healing items. I think prices start to get higher with ones level, but it seems that the Healing Herb (15g for 20hp) is the better deal compared to the Small Potion (75g for 60hp). Maybe the healing herb will go up once I get a higher level. At the moment its cheaper to buy lots of healing herbs and never the potions.
Another thing everyone else seems to agree on is the need for marked exits for each map. It took me forever to find out there was another path way (the one that leads to the sand generator).
All in all a good game. But the negatives can be a bit irritating.
Kept me entertained for 4 hours. I have no real interest in the story. Story sucks. And so do the baddies. But the skill tree is pretty good. And I like the battle system quite a bit. Shopping is almost pointless except to get maybe one or two items to raise a stat a few points.
Definitely a good game. Way too short, but I lol'ed so many times. xD
Thanks for a good game. :) I love the 'roar' too. Friggin great. And the title? Awsome. I laughed just reading it looking through the game list. ^^
Great job everyone involved. The ending would have been fine if there was some point to it..like a blooper.
I'm going to give it a 5/5. I thought it was great!
Awesome game. :) I got to level 32 before I decided to stop. Its too late to think about how to do it. :P I know how, but it takes good timing. And I don't have time to retry right now.
