Reviews for "Bearboy and the Cursor"

good

good game

GREAT GAME!!! My screen was to small though... REALLY! I COULNT DO ANY THING!!! but this is really cool! Is bearboy running for govener or what anyway?

Decent platformer ruined by a bad add system.

First the game itself: Controls were slow and a bit laggy and the cursor bits were very imprecise. Reloading after death also took a bit too long. Other than that, it had some good mechanics and was fairly fun. It would probably have scored a 7-8 on it's own, especially if the second and third worlds got better.

The bad news though, is that this game is literally unplayable for me. I understand that you are trying to make a profit and I accept ad systems. However, the ads didn't load for me and continuing in the game is based on watching the complete add. No ad loading means that I cannot continue. I refresh and come back, and I can play one more level before the ads lock me out again. Many games fix this problem by using a count-down timer on the ads and allowing gameplay to continue after (for example) 30 seconds regardless of whether the ad loaded.

If you correct this problem and allow me to keep playing, I will be happy to give you a higher score. 2/5, 5/10

Hi Dragonheart,

you don't have to wait for the ads to load at all! you can just walk to the portal and go right to the next level. sorry if this hurt your experience with the game, I implemented the ad system this way because I thought it might be a little more original than other ad systems. I gotsta make a living :)

Honestly not bad

Great idea and gameplay, but the ads really jam a poisoned serrated knife into the stomach of the experience. I know the sponsors gotta get their credit, but isn't it a littel self-defeating to put invasive advertisements in a game where the cursor tries to get away from average internet business?

kinda sucks that full screen dosent work on the flash player, also was annoying how the screen moved with the character i kinda just had to guess whats infornt of me and try not to die
