The Daily Click ::. Downloads ::. Review Review: The Line
OK... When i first looked at the screenies, i thought "oooOOoo original!" so i eagerly clicked on the Download Now link. When i finally finished Downloading, and started the game, i was surprised by the spiffy menu, but the best bit is once the game started, i realized the quality of the animations and gfx. The 'Line' is excellently animated and plays beautifully. Although this may look like one of those 2bit games from the 4 color competition, this does not play like any of those! The music however is pretty good, esp the intro/menu music a good midi if i ever heard of one. There is also the challenge factor of the game, where the enemies come in various directions and require some quick thinking, Like once when i was playing, when i approached one of those baddie waves (snowaves or something?) i planned to pull the string, but was quickly killed by an approaching err.. line.. hmm..that comet looking line. However the CONTROLS! the only thing i can criticise are the controls. I always accidentally press down instead of shift to invert resulting in many restarts. SUMMARY: PRESENTATION: 10/10 -Nice spiffy menu -Good menu music -Excellent animations GAMEPLAY: 9/10 -Nice simple GFX -Interesting concept -Ok Controls (well just the inverse key) GRAPHICS: 9/10 -Nice simple GFX -Excellent animations SOUND&MUSIC: 8/10 -Nice menu music -Fine variety of pops and whizzes LASTABILITY: 9/10 -Challenging -High Score OVERALL: 10/10 -Excellent example of how fun a simple concept can result in.
