Well, that was an inspiring game. The art direction in this game is really incredible. Many game designers should play this just to get a sense of what a well designed, 'alive' setting looks. The four-way movement in the water level came as a nice surprise, and the strange 3D effect you did with the rock rings surprised me a lot; it was really beautiful. The music adds up to it. I get that the object hunting part was used to enhance the amount of details put in it...
My only complaint is that a lot of the 'crazy imaginative details' have little meanings to them. The only thing that has any sorts of repercussion in the story is the monster in the end (that was cute). If you made an epic adventure where the 'crazy details' were 'crazy details with meaning' then this would be the most incredible game! Yes!
I'm not sure if you can consider this a glitch, bit I realize that the transparency of the ball in the PONG arcade game, when the "invisible ball" bonus is activated, does not depend on its position relative to your own paddle. Instead, the transparency of the ball decreases over time, meaning that at any rate if the ball is going fast, it will never disappear.
Where has my life gone? I hate this game because it's so addicting, or, you could say, because I love it so much. Man. On an unrelated note, saying that "ctrl+s" opens the stats screen is fairly misleading, seeing as if you press control BEFORE s, it will bring up a pop-up menu (or at least it does on my safari browser. I have to press s before control in order to bring the stats screen.
I don't get the popularity of this game... Not only does it have flaws, but they're essentially the SAME flaws from the previous 2 games that are almost exactly the same >_>
For some reasons, I thought the noises heard in the game rather... irritating. Perhaps because they were high pitched. It felt like it reverberated right into my throat O_o
But erm, anyways. I see you've taken the inspiration from eyezmaze (it's been a long time since I've been there!). I thought it more disturbing than enjoyable, though... <
Strange choices in the creation... It obviously wants to recreate a guitar hero feel. Only, there are subtle things that don't seem to work exactly like they should. Hammer-ons are too hard to differentiate from normal notes, and are sometimes unresponsive. In guitar mode, it is impossible to get a note correctly if you are pressing anything else (unlike in GH where you can also press lower notes). The overall lack of precision seems to prevent doing insane solos, too. I hear some pretty sick things done on the guitar in some songs, but what I'm playing ain't those sick solos, they're some background side-track.
Well, I believe it's the least good one of the bunch... Somehow. A bunch of level design choices were poor, I believe. For instances, there was that time I had to jump in a gap with a ceiling 1 block away, leaving very little room for luck. I had to restart my jump 10 times before getting to the teleporter correctly. And yes, I would like a mute button for many different reasons. And I didn't like the fact that you had to sacrifice your shield in order to access some areas. It's as if you turned an advantage into a neutral object that only allows you to access other areas. And still don't get how you can get past through crystals without dying... And a crystal disappeared. Somehow. It made it easier to get the key. I had only one shield, maybe there were two?
No, really. Is the only way to press backspace to open the game in a new browser, so in that case there is no previous page and you don't lose your progress...? Pressing backspace goes to the previous page. Someone explain me what I'm missing or something?!
Herm, What did the programmer think? You can't possibly press the backspace key, because it goes to the previous page :/ At least, on my computer. I don't recall it not happening on others though.
The surprising part is not that this is in the monthly top 5 games... The surprising part is that, with ALL of the haters, this "game" is rated high. I mean, seriously. Oh wait, yeah, I remember... Haters can't shut up. It must be something along those lines... Thus making them seem more numerous. :/
It is a walkthrough. It is not a game. Even if this could be considered a game, I would probably not consider this as the best experience(s) of the month... seriously. The game is awesome, beating the heck out of pretty much any flash games. This walkthrough IS incomplete. Whilst it does give the main information and secrets, I know of REAL walkthroughs that much more elaborate. At certain moments, I wish the walkthrough had specific information that it didn't contain (such as the location of Golden Conches to beat Karnos and some ability for Zack)... I have found the former, not the latter. This walkthrough should've logically been completed BEFORE I beat animus >_> ... Or at least, it should be NOW. Hence, I give this walkthrough a... A 3, let's say. 3 stands for slightly above the average or good. And considering there are a lot of crapy flash games, 3 fits. Is not giving tips for the superbosses REALLY worthy a walkthrough anyway? Some unseasoned gamers might not like that :/
I'm sorry, but... Really. This game is so similar to the first one. Train... Level up. Train more. Get perfect levels. Race... Beat everyone else without even having to move a finger because you already know you have 100 levels everywhere. I mean. It would've been great to add a lot of new features, and "climbing" isn't quite worth a "sequel". What else is there to say anyway? The sequel should upgrade the first game! All I see is 90% of the same.
Urgh! I need a third Golden Conch for the first upgrade to Legion's weapon, but I can't find any. In the bestiary, it would seem the only enemy that can drop it is some aether fish, which can only be found in the end-game area and the arena. How do I get the damn conch NOW?!
This is so reminescent of other RPGs... Yes, it does sound like FF at moments (but not as in rip-off, but more as in... "Oh that sounds like FF" :/, meanwhile, if I didn't put that parenthesis, I'd be scared of being attacke by haters O_o). But not only FF, but also Earthbound. Hell yeah. Except Mardek's humor is more psychological than that of Mother. But the Dreamworld... It's Moonside. It's the first thing I thought. And the volcano level. But seriously, it's not like we see millions of these kinds in games at all anyway. And Mario RPG too... But not chrono trigger for some reasons. Heh. (Oh, and the game is awesome and I've already said all that before).
