I thought that the photos would capture images of what happened and you would examine them back at the lab and put the story together. Was disappointed when that didn't happen. Would have been cool if you had to capture sounds too on a recorder. 3/5 for good atmosphere, music and graphics.
The music is fantastic. I love the mood this game sets. Creepy. I really like the sanity meter. I liked it better when it was 3 taint and 3 arcane on megalomaniac. 5/5
Its like going to the store and asking the clerk "whats in that bag?" and the clerk says, "oh thats some treats..." and you say "what kind of treats?" and the clerk says "you have to buy it to find out". so you do, then you forget if those treats taste as good as the treats you purchased last time you were at the store.
Why not show the exact improvement in probability and damage when choosing a skill path. I never know what effect anything i pick is having. It makes the learning curve of the game unnecessarily steep.
Ironically, maybe days before this was on here, i was thinking "Wow i wonder why no one makes a good side scrolling shooter like Contra or Midnight Resistance in flash.." I'm baffled why this is not in the running for this months grand prize.. button hunt beating this?? what the hell!!?? This game is a true treat. I'd consider it good by 90's arcade standards. For flash game standards, this game is a masterpiece. This game is so good that I feel I should lower the rankings of other good games I rated on here. My heart sinks when I see reviews posted like "totally crap". Maybe make an easy level for the wee children, and a hardcore level for true gamers. That might boost your ratings. People are probably rating the game before they can see the cool levels and the rad bosses. Enthusiastic 5/5
