    i don’t know what to think, i quite like the character, he looks funny on the backgrounds, but… the gameplay itself seems the worst thing this game has to offer

    awesome. I don’t know what you were expecting. After seeing the pictures, this exceeds my expectations.

    Y’know, there’s more than a little bit of truth to the idea that the indie scene automatically gives a +5 bonus to low-fidelity platformers :)

    As ever, it’s going to come down to actually sitting down and playing the game, but basic ladder-climbing and Rolling Thunder shooting does not immediately scream “amazing game of the year material” to me…

      exactly, also one thing is juicy pixel art another whole is crappy graphics like this one, it could be hilarious… or just pathetic if the actual gameplay is boring as it looks :-\

        I dunno, to me the graphics look rotoscoped, but with wonky head drawn on.

        I also don’t hold up high hopes for the gameplay, though. Not a fan of cheap hits, which this game looks to have a bounty of.

          nah the animations are too bad for being rotoscoped…
          I could even think about taking it if it were a platformer but that ladders structure + mesy shooting looks really bad

      Jesus, Eclipse. you have a major bug up your *** about the animation. It looks cool for what it is. You seem like the kind of guy that would kick Reese Witherspoon out of bed because you didn’t like her feet. :)

    Sorry, but 400 points for this shitty game is a ripoff. At this pricepoint I can’t even laugh about Herman. :(

    got this last night, and I’m loving it. Guess it’s not for everyone, based on all the complaining. I sure don’t regret blowing $5 on it. The first levels were a little slow, but it’s an ok learning curve. First playthrough took me over 3 hours, and now I’m doing it again on difficulty 4. Gets crazy hard. i just died 6 times on one level and my adrenaline was going off. The story is better than the gameplay, but coming from me that is not a complaint. Love the backgrounds and music. Cool game.

    Just beat it on 4. The last levels made me suck my thumb.
