Not the best.

The animation was jumpy and inconsistent. The line quality was sketchy, making it look rushed and incomplete. The controls were frustrating. The difficulty was a bit too strong. The music was repetitive, and seems like it has been mixed with the same samples you used for your games and movies over six years ago.

All in all a pretty poor performance.

:-(

MindChamber responds:

that one music sample i threw in as a lil homage to some old beats I used, but whatever.

I'll agree about the difficulty, as for the animation, sorry I dont at least definitely not in game.. sure the cinemas were rushed because I lost the orginals in a hD crash, and I didnt want to prolonge a minigame meant for PicoDay...as for the line art, well I like my brushtool sketchy look, not everyone loves to suck the pentools dick like you do.

anyways good luck with your game, looking forward to the next 2 years of video demos, art revisions, deadbrained boss AI, and mediocre gameplay.

it should be a blast.

Haha, good job!

This was a refreshing little hack-and-slash. Makes me even more anxious to play the real CastleCrashers!

You're not kidding, I'm pumped to see the real deal too!

Meh

Programming was lacking. There were countless times when I fell off a block I was obviously on, or when an enemy harmed me when they shouldn't have.

Lambtaco responds:

I found that more often I'm standing on a block I'm not actually on. And I'm working on updating the collision detection w/ enemies.

Bah...

This crap is Sony Corporate. Newgrounds should only be used to help promote the flash community. Let this muck up Sony's bandwidth, not ours.

This piece makes no sense. Egg people in Egg Land throwing out analog TV's? Using a simple actionscript click-shooter? Lame! It looks like it was drafted by some idiot Sony exec while he was on the John. I can hear the phone call now. "Kempt, we're looking for a 'hip' way to push the ananlog to digital crossover. I thought egg people would be cute. Oo! Oo! Let's call it 'Operation Crossover!' Try and have it done in 2 weeks."

Oh and by the way, I'm NOT in support over this digital switchover. I only see it as an attempt to boost electronics companies' profit margins by forcing a NATION of consumers into purchasing new, non-analog TV sets. What purpose does it really serve? The signal clarity would only be marginally better. Televisions will cost more, and the $800 set I bought a year ago will be completely obsolete. Uness I buy a converter, and God only knows how much the Electronics companies will mark those up for a profit. If it isn't broke, don't fix it!

ChrisKempt responds:

I'm really sorry that this has offended you so badly. As ever, we've just tried to find a fun way to deal with what might have been an extrememly boring advert.

Anyway... I guess you're probably still using an old 486 (coz it ain't broke) so you won't have played the game...

I'm a freelance game developer working for all sorts of companies big and small, as well as spending time pushing out my own indie titles.
