Hrm, good for what it is. The grind, especially at the end, is a bit on the obnoxious side for this sort of game- with all the best equipment for a str/vit spit set up, at level 64, I got to the last boss, he hit me once, and I hit escape. Without strategy, it just becomes arithmatic- I could wail on pyromancers/avatars of the sun for a long while, or I could just say forget it. Another small issue- the sunburst attack from the avatar of the sun seems to take an annoyingly long time to complete. It makes it a real pain to level on, though its the natural thing to do so to prepare for the last boss otherwise.
Is there anything this engine can't do? Games about cycling. SEQUELS to games about cycling. Games about cycling with GREG. Millions of future programmers NEED NOT APPLY, for where could they possibly go from here?
A fun, straightforward shooter. Generally well executed, with a nice upgrade system. My only issue was the amount of noise on the screen at times. Overall though, great. Contains the usual requirement of suspension of belief inherent to most shooters. Take off every zig.
Actually, dear developer, please please please dumb down the magic nine ball minigame. My window will thank you for it when my laptop doesn't go through it.
I DON'T HATCH WEAKLINGS. YOU GET BACK IN THAT ERUPTING VOLCANO AND CLIMB! I don't CARE that you're a flying duck and have wings and no thumbs! CLIMB or FALL IN THE LAVA.
The balls on the title screen... they peer in to my soul and know where I am going to move my mouse. I am going to try and get out of the house. If I do not post again in ten minutes, I am likely already dead- but the world must be warned!
On the first launch, I went for near 15 minutes. That's more time than the typical "fully upgraded" launch on many of these types of games. The graphics are nice, but the mechanics are wonky. Everything is jammed down near the ground, and there's a LOT of empty space above the field of coins/etc. Nothing really groundbreaking here, save for perhaps the achievement based upgrade system. 3/5
