Reviews for "Slumber Knight"
kakus responds:
I give it souls tag because I've created the game after playing Demons souls, and inspired from it a lot.
1. You die a lot, as a learning process.
2. There are demons.
3. Fight is tough.
4. World is pretty dark and not much explained.
This game is swank! Thanks guy!
It is obnoxiously, ridiculously, unjustifiably hard to make any kind of progress in this game. It took me five minutes to even figure out how to fight monsters, and another ten minutes to figure out how to get past the red monster's tooth. It is an interesting idea but I won't play it if you die in one hit from a monster's tooth.
kakus responds:
The game is really short, when you know the layout and know which items to pickup before demons, you could finish the game in like 3 mins. So making progress in this game is actually trying each path, then probably dying, after you know the layout, just pickup right items and go for demons.
Although I can't argue about that I didn't tell the player how to fight demons :(.
It's not bad, but it's REALLY hard (at least for me). It's really frustrating, at first, when you're just getting used to the game and the game's basically (1 Run into a demon and die fast, restart 2) run into a demon and die horribly, restart 6) get caught in a dead end and die again, restart... But when you FINALLY kill one of the bloody demons, it's quite satisfying.
kakus responds:
Well, I wanted to give the game some of the dark souls feel. So the death in this game should be like learning experience not the punishment. One thing I didn't add (run out of time for compo) was that the player should see what was on the end of the other path that the player didn't choose. So each death should give you some information what was on the other paths.
The items in this game are crucial to be able to win easily, but aren't necessary. After you acquire sword you only need ten hits in demons lips to win :)
Idea is ok!
A little Story would be nice. In that way you could also explain the "Fights".. I reckon it's all about this fights?
Very oldschool Style RPG thought. So that's why I'll give you 2 Stars :)
kakus responds:
There is a little story, the title suggest it, and what could be doing this knight in title scene? Maybe 'knightmare' would be better name ...
Anyway, I wouldn't categorise this game as RPG :)
