Review: Unknown Game 2461

This game is most notable for one thing: It'll take you longer to install it than to complete it from start to finish, and that doesn't even include the time taken for the download. Writing even 1500 characters on this game is going to be like getting blood from an orange. Or something like that, I really must check that Dictionary of Metaphors that I got for Christmas (he said paddingly).

Graphics in the game are very well drawn and detailed, and also presented well (though the "SART" button on the title screen confused me somewhat). Some of them are taken from GFactory (along with the music) but they fit the game very well.

Now, the problem with this demo is that all you have to do to complete it is the following:

Shoot
Run right
Jump
Run right
Shoot
Shoot
Run right

And that's my guide for the game completed. There really isn't enough here to warrant making a demo, or even a demo of a demo, if that's possible. Maybe it could better be described as a demo of a demo of a demo… (fade to black)

As for how it feels in-game, the gravity is set too low so that it looks as if you're floating, and there's a hot spot problem on the main character. With these fixed, this fragment of a game could develop into a competent platformer. As it is, it's far too short to have any reason to download, or even upload in the first place for that matter.

I don't know if this counts as a "greate review", but this game is worth continuing with nonetheless, even if just for us to see enough of it to get an idea if it's any good or not...
