I must make another comment on this game, simply due to the fact that I have gotten the hang of it. But level 5 is just too long to do perfectly. Only very rarely have I gotten away with accidentally, instinctively hitting the wrong key, and, as many people have probably found out, there is pretty much NO margin for error here. I've probably died at least 200 times. The in-game achievements page tells me that level 5 lasts roughly between 4 minutes and 20 seconds to 5 minutes. Stupidly long time to complete a stupidly hard level means a game that everyone will simply flip the middle finger at the hardcore story as, really, I find it very unlikely that less than 99% of people here are here for the badges.
I've been playing this game for a while, and I've made it to level 5. I have a lot of problems. First of all, if you're being chased, and then have to duck under arrows THEN jump over a soldier, there is almost no way you'll be able to do that, not because of the reaction time, but because almost all of the animations are too long, and galloping is too fast. The same goes for the farmers; if you're being chased, even if it's just one farmer, from the time it takes to hit the spacebar to throw a javelin to when the javelin is actually thrown, you're dead because the farmer killed you. Also, PLEASE add a progress bar or at least SOMETHING that's telling me how far I got. Even telling me the percentage of the way through the level I got would be great, because I have no way of telling how far I am through the level.
I've seen myself get more than 20 million DPS, but it usually shows up as just over 800 000. There really needs to be a way to turn off coins, because the Crackerplier can't have that big of a difference.
I quit at the blue ball bit. Damn, that bit is hard.
It is no longer a clone of "The Classroom," Danny. In fact, it is wickedly insane. And that's a 4/5(nothing is perfect, don't whine.)
4/5 :c
