Reviews for "In Utero"

the same old problem

Either put in a difficulty level, or cheats. I can't stand games that difficult. I can't even kill the boss. Care to explain why my shots kept going through random enemies? Also, he should be always firing straight. I can't tell you how many times I got screwed over because I got killed because he wasn't firing in the right direction. Please fix it.

FetusFulp responds:

your shots were going through random enemies because my engine for this game isn't that great. it's imperfect. it's buggy. however, it's not a game-ruining experience.

nah.

It is very hard to move the character up, down, left, and right with the arrow keys while being bombarded by obstacles. Lacks fluidity and too fast for slow controls.

FetusFulp responds:

i don't find it that hard or slow. i'm used to it, though. eh.

not that great

its not just that i am a critic(in my own way) but this was just boring to me to many enemies made it WAY to easy to die which just makes you lose your upgrade i think you should have put a health bar i there cuz it also makes it hard to get the medals im just saying it would have been WAY better if you made it with a health bar.

FetusFulp responds:

oh no! the medals are hard to get? ): i'm sorry. maybe i'll do something like jmtb02's "Achievement Unlocked," only with real medals. and without the clever wit used in it.

Not great...

What is it about people and making games about sperm? Immature and unimaginative. Also, the controls stick and it will start without my consent. I hate that if you go off screen even momentarily you lose a life, the walls should just be solid. There are too many enemies on screen at one time, and the boss is very difficult to beat. Maybe the sperm should have health instead of just dying. Also, did you have to create a whole new account called FetusFulp? Couldn't you have just created this game on your own account? I can see why you wouldn't want this crap on your account.

FetusFulp responds:

"it will start without my consent?" judging by the tone in your review, a lot of things were done to you "without your consent" as a child.

Everything is good except for the actual game play

The music and graphics are nice, but the actual game play is flawed. The controls are super stiff, which means that you have to press on the key very hard to get it to move. More responsive controls would be a major improvement. Also it would have been nice if you had included a health bar instead of you getting killed by everything.

In addition, there are too many enemies coming at you. Combined with the other issues, it is almost impossible to dodge all the enemies, rocks and the skin. Come to think of it, why does crashing into the skin hurt you? It should be SOLID instead of being possible to fly through so that it doesn't hurt you. One last issue: going off screen kills you. Why does that kill you? Other games don't do that. There should be an invisible shield that prevents the player from going off screen.

All of this results in the game being rather difficult. In fact, I still haven't beaten the first boss of the game because of the problems described, in addition to it having so much health that your weapon is nearly useless even with the maximum upgrade. If the first level is that hard I can't even imagine how hard the rest of the game must be if you manage to get past that boss.

Come to think of it, these problems are almost identical to the ones the game "Silver Surfer" on the NES had. (watch a review of that game or play it and you'll understand immediately what I mean by that) I hope you look at this review and use the feedback to make a better game.
