2.92?
Are you people crazy. Not the best game but completely undeserving of such a low score. Lots of effort clearly went into this. It plays great, feels great, runs great. Great job. A cool game, something to play when you're bored, definitely worth a look, I enjoyed it.
My only complaint is the controls are very unfriendly. I didn't like them , but from what I can tell, I think you can set them, so thats a SUPER plus.
Wow! thank you for your comments, I'm glad you liked it. To read this makes me think it's not so bad :)
Room for improvement
Well, adding 140 phrases does a good job in making it slightly more original, but it's fairly obvious to see that this is pretty much just like every other "8-Ball" type game. The graphics were mediocre at best, and there wasn't really a point to it when you could just type in random words, or none at all. It's like, why even include a text box? You could have easily said "Ask a question out loud and the mystic ball will hear it and answer."
I think one thing original that you could have done with the textbox is, make it so that it recognizes what's a question and what isn't. To do this, you'd have to make it recognize question words in the beginning of a sentance that are yes and no related (Am, Are, Is, Can, etc). This would have made it a whole lot more original.
I give you a 6/10, but I think you could do a whole lot better on this.
you raise a fair point but I can't help feeling that you've misunderstood the purpose of it. I like the idea about recognizing questions and I'll definitely consider it although I plan now to move on to bigger and better things.
Great to see a new SMASH! Game out!
Perfect for the season, and very well done, with a nice christmas feel. I somehow get absorbed into the SMASH! games, they are very addictive, challenging and fun. Glad to see a new SMASH! out =D
Thanks for your review, and it's good to see a SMASH! fan out there :) I appreciate the support - thanks a lot!
Hey guys
What to say? MindChamber, as always, great job on the art, really, seems like each new flash you come out with, it always has better art/animation then the last, and with your skills, thats hard to do, very nice.
Frosty! Wow, collabing with MC eh? =p Great job at the scripting, seems like you've improved yourself a bit. I love the combo system, it's so good, everything is scripted really well and looks like you did a great job.
Zombie, well, I personally don't know you or what you did, I'm sorry, but I'm assuming you scripted, so I'm going to assume you're just as good as MC and Frosted, great job ;p
Great game, really fun fun fun as hell
thanks for the awesome review!
as for Zombie he did the art for the last boss which was the winner of my sprite contest!
Great!
A really original concept, fun, and addicting. Great job with this one, I really liked it and you did a great job in making it ;)
Keep rocking hard.
We will keep rockin' on hard - thanks for the review!
Awesomeundo...
Deltas first submission. Awesome, now where's that 3D game that I've heard rumored around too many times ;D
Great job guys, an excellent tutorial, with lots of things I myself should learn. BitmapData tutorials are really amazing, and should help me a lot seeing as how I was too lazy to learn bitmapData from AS: Main because liam blows (joke), but these tutorials might be easier for me to understand. Really nice job guys =)
Haha, thansk TD :). Glad you like it. I'm trying to reply to every review. It may take a while :).
Anyway, glad you learnt somthing :). I know i did :D.
Thanks.
