Reviews for "Hurdle Turtle: Flash!"

DAMN WALLS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

mwahahahaha!! ;)

Fun game, great music

I enjoyed the game play and the music, awesome retro throwback. However I found the hit boxes are a lot bigger than the graphics. The walls are the worst of it, you can be noticeably above or below them and still get hit. Poor hit detection really ruins games in my opinion. You'd have yourself a top notch game of this caliber if the hit boxes were better and if the screen zoomed out as that guy below me mentioned. I'd buy it on XBL if those changes were made.

Thanks for the review! :)

As for the hit detection on the walls - don't forget the game is isometric, not flat.. and the turtle himself is a flat sprite, which means you have to take perspective into account when dodging.

Basically, if you (and by you, I mean the turtle's feet/shadow) are below the middle line, you won't hit the top walls, and if they're above, you won't hit the bottom walls, and I made sure it's quite accurate in that way.

buttons

The first 15m are really annoying.
