It's really a lot like Mushroom Tower Defense, isn't it? I mean, I like the music, the halloween theme, upgrade system and world map, but the general gameplay and element idea seems totally copied from that game...
(Sorry if I missed you crediting it somewhere or something, but yeah)
It's a lot like Canabalt, which you mentioned yourself, and there's nothing wrong with being inspired by a game, and I liked how you made the game a bit more in-depth and with more options than just run and jump.
I also really liked the idea that you could kill enemies if you were speeding up, and that you had lives, but they seemed a bit pointless (at least that you had 5), sincemost of the deaths probably are from falling anyways.
That being said, I have a few comments as well, and I hope you can use some positive critique :D
1: It seemed a bit shallow that there were just 3 speeds, you know, slow, normal and fast. Imo, there should be some transitions between them, so you can't just speed up or slow down instantly.
2: You can just hold down C to throw loads of shurikens, you might want to put a limit on those XD
3: The hook thing seemed a bit weird, if you held down X it would keep throwing new ones on the platforms, sure, I don't fall down, but the mechanism could be a bit better imo ^^
4: Not that important, but you could make the backgrounds a bit more exciting, just to distract the players :D
So yeah, 8/10
+5 for addictiveness
+3 for in-depthness
+2 for style
-2 for minor errors
Also, I like how you reply to most reviews, keep it up if you can! :D
I will do my best. :) I agree lives are a bit pointless now. And I also thought about limiting the shurikens, but decided to leave it as is as it gives more fun. Thanks for a great detailed review!
I think it was great to see a game here that was a bit out of the ordinary, and I would love to hear some more about your message with the game, I mean, I think I got the general idea of it all, but it seemed a bit cryptic altogether =P
Also, I really liked the general gameplay, ecspecially the commands and what happened when obeying/disobeying them, something about them kinda made me wanna just disobey them no matter wait they said though ^^
9/10, because it was a good short story, and challenging enough for it to be considered an actual game.
Why not 10? Taste I guess,
From a strictly gaming point of view, it's very short and easy once you get the ang of it (first 3 levels).
But it's some really pretty and beautiful constellations, you made them look very clear and one was quickly able to recognize the figures.
I'm gonna give you a 9, closer to 8 than 10, since it's very easy, but I don't think your goal with the game was to challenge players' gaming skills, so I it didn't weight it down that much.
Also, #43, nice job pal :D
Well, whatever you did, it totally works!
Lovely game, -1 point for the kind of boring gameplay and simple structure, but only 1 point because that's not really what the game is about, right? =D
The wonderful combination of the music, the theme and the general style of the game totally weighs it up, nice work, definitley one of the better flashes here on NG! ^^
(Btw nice poems and stuff at the end, also in the first game, I'll have to quote you on those! =D)
Sweeeeet, man, completed it on easy, going for something else next : D
Really neatly done, all the way through, lol@sooooo many things! XD
Just a couple of quick comments. 1: Is there even an attack with a water element? 2: When Matt gets his counter upgrade a couple of steps up, it can get a bit overpowered when you equip the Blood Blade and heal a couple of 1000s on every counter =P
5/5, 10/10 and fave! =D
(Can it be rated E with the word penis in it, a guy looking up an angel's dress and various other... stuff in it? ^^)
Anyways, 7 for awesome gameplay, 2 for graphics, 5 for everything else, 14/10 in total, but can only give you 10, so...

Very interesting and different
