I gave it 5 stars initially, but when I saw it didn't complete the story (in my opinion), I was very annoyed! I want to know what the hell happens to that damn tape player. The sudden END just wasn't right...
Otherwise, TOTALLY addictive game! Thumbs up!
So far it seems like you can't pause it. Which is not okay. I was just about to comment on it. And I suppose I just did! Otherwise, addictive, and simple.
One thing though I MUST mention, is one thing that stood out and really stuck with me in game design... They pulled off color options & combos ASTONISHINGLY well. With diverse colors, which, coming from an artist here, is BIG points with me! Another example how active gameplay was sacrificed. Oops, one last critique (the game designers must hate me), a lot of bugs. Some of them are your average "bug" but others are pure design glitches that should have been tended to. Okay, I hope I'm done blabbing!
more! ... The contrast between in-game graphics and "off duty" is so drastic, it seems laughable almost (yet I'm playing this game a lot. Hypocrite be me?). It wouldn't even matter how good the graphics are as long as they MATCH. The huge difference just looks bad. If this weren't such a hugely promoted game, I probably wouldn't be critiquing as much. But if they're going to PROMOTE it like THIS, come ON! I think if they spaced it out more (actual gameplay interface) and perhaps had more zoomed in setup and different angle, it would be da' bomb. As is, yeah. I made my point. ... and yes, I want to say that I do have fun playing it, despite all this criticism! This is just what I do. I'm a serious judge (not literally).
There are a lot of things that can improve. I find it slightly habit forming and indeed can be fun, but it is very unbalanced as a game. There are so many things to go over. But put simply, they put all the energy into everything OUTSIDE of gameplay. Gameplay seems to have been put off until last as just sort of a sidegame. Other people have said similarly; either field needs be BIGGER or players SLOWER. It's insane in that space. You can't keep track because everything is going so fast. Ease of viewing gameplay components is seriously needing improvement. You can't keep track of the players; the difference between holding the ball and your active player is minimal, and too late once you figure it out. I can never use the map view in the corner because looking up means giving up the ball. TOO FAST! And no, I am a good gamer.
Should I say more? (that wasn't sarcastic actually
I have a whole lot of constructive comments, but I don't want to spam the boards. It's busy enough as it is!
Otherwise it can be quite fun, despite the frustration it gives me.
What probably bothers me the most in terms of gameplay is that you can't just restart the match in the pause menu. I have to quit match, (which brings me back to the main menu) and basically start from the beginning... of "continue career" that is.
Frog, you need to put in a statement saying it's still under development. Because it is.
I've got *SOOO* much input for you. They're not criticisms; They're constructive input/advice.
Please contact me! Peace!
Why are there only white guys? (thus far. I'm just beginning)
I like that you can customize your team and their colors so meticulously, although I have been cut off from cool game consoles.
I'm sorry but...
WHAT THE ****!
This is hilarious. I was working while my friend was playing it on a laptop. It was one of the funniest things ever... um, in terms of overhearing games on kongregate. Yeah... that narrows it down a lot.
The mouth has spoken!
... I want food.
I wish more skins would be available. I mean, Kerry and Bush were perfect and only suitable then, but now? Can we have more? Please? I've always loved this game.
I love the art. It creeped me at first, but isn't that the point? Unfortunately, my brother ruined the ending. (should I say it?)
I think it's wonderful that they chose b&w. And not greyscale. BLACK and WHITE. Who does that these days? Incredibly creative as well. Different than the rest.
Gets five stars from me!
