"You get a 7, and here's why ( in my opinion )"
Hey.
So from one game designer to another I'm impressed with the concept. As I read the description I thought " Why the hell didn't I think of that?" As a concept, on paper, I can honestly say I holds promise. One button gameplay? I can see the challenges that presents, but if mastered, how great would that be as a player?
I think 1 button games and titles like "canibalt" come to mind, where the player is auto running and you time a button press to jump. I've read the lower rated reviews. Some seem like they were written by those who seem to be allergic to innovation, and carry an instant dislike to anything unfamiliar.
People like this will always burden trailblazers and hold us back as a society, like old people who are legitimately "afraid" of the internet, to fully accept a new idea, a generation kinda needs to die out.
I did however get a touch of the A.D.D and quit after the ( I wanna say ) 6th level due to some poor design choices ( If I jump when I release a button, but I must release or I'll die, only to be sent up into spikes-- a pattern must be fixed ).
I do give a 7 for having the balls to run with a concept I personally havn't seen before. That's the thing about something new, you don't know how the general populace will react until they try it. Unfortunately they can't all be winners, and if you have an idea that no one else has done before, sometimes ( not always ) there is a reason for it.
My 2 cents.

Thanks a bunch dude, you have given my group a new "in joke" with this sweet animation! We're always quoting it and it's so damn catchy! The quality if good animation wise, it's got some obvious photos for a background, but I know thats the style in these "internet sensation" type deals, so atleast you know the animation knows what it's trying to be, which is more then can be said for most on NG! :D

Laughed SOOO hard when he kicked the baby's ass and pissed on it :) That's what I like about you man, your not afraid to "go there" I would LOVE to get away with pulling that shit on the next baby who screams in a movie theater or something. I hope to see this character get taken in even SICKER directions as the series progresses.
Awesome :D

But what can I say? I'm a fan of your work and have been since the "friendly squirrel" way back. Predictable, but not really...hard to explain, but I laughed :)

While graphics could use a little more work ( mainly the orbs, the gradient/blandness was kinda bad ) some things had a specific charm, and it was all cohesive, quite nice. The concept is sweet, yes, why is there a shark at the top of the mountain? Because epic win, that's why.
Nice opoening cinematic, pretty funny, I usually cringe when I watch a poor written story unfold, but this felt right all the way thru, nothing forced.
I didn't hit any glitches, and reached 107 place on the high score sheet when I died ( my own fault, I wanted to see what would happen jumping off ). The feel was good, liked the rebound off walls, and lock-picking achievements :)
The real issue for me was it was slow the whole time, I'm sure it's the browser's fault, if I was playing it as an swf on my desktop it would probly run fine, so I can't really knock ya for that.
Good job dude!
Author's Response:
You can knock me for the lag, heh. It runs terrible on the desktop too, there's just way to many particles flying around, and I didn't optimize it well. Phantasmic Dead wrote and animated the entire thing, pretty much his idea.
Thanks for the review.

People can have their opinions I guess, and while the the art was pretty simplistic, it all came together and fit well with the concept. ( why have realistic graphics when the bullets are acting in an unrealistic way?)
Personally I thought the idea was genius, really fun stuff here dude. 5!

And well written! You got a good story brewing here man, these Blown out of Proportion movies are fucking epic! The opening sequence had me laughing so hard, all the way through the opening intro.
Seriously, some bigwig tv executive better pick this series up quick, it would absolutely KILL on Adult Swim.
Your art has improved, while still maintaining the set style the series is known for.The only complaint I would have is fix some of the feedback on the audio, but again, it kinda goes with the style. Alright, ganna check out pt 2 now :)

Hey I thought the game was great, good grafics, story was funny and stylishly presented. But the controls SUCKED. As I was beggining to get a hold of them, I guess a glitch happened because I couldn't move. I pressed all buttons and went into panic mode while my cart was getting fucked.
I wasn't about to hit up 9 waves again after that, which sucks, because this game was really interesting. I would say please fix that glitch.
