A nine minute video tutorial? Just make a tutorial in text, nobody likes video walkthroughs, the same applies to tutorials. Also, learn from chick fil-a and oreo - don't go on about your religion if you're not a religious organization or a priest or something. Because a lot of people wouldn't agree with you and they have every right to rate the game down for it that a christian has to rate the game up for it. The combat is repetitive and boring, and the story is mediocre. I DO actually think the three different intros is a very good idea, even if each one is only ok. I couldn't get all that far because I have to make an account on some website in order to save. Seriously, that's an awful idea! I'm not going to make an account, I'm just not going to play much and think less of the site. I also am getting really annoyed by the constant stream of the word "gamersafe." I get it, it's you sponsor! But does almost every popup have to have gamersafe's logo on it? Even the achievements require an account! Finally, though the premium content is kind of annoying, it's really not nearly as bad as most premium content. I'd say that wasn't a problem. However, many people hate premium content. You'll probably LOSE money overall because of the lower rating. You want to make money so badly, get a job or make really good flash games, like this COULD have been if it wasn't for the giant black hole of gamersafe sucking in the rest of the game. Still, some of the game still pokes through, enough to show 2 stars.
Reviews for "Amiran"
love this :D
I mostly don't like your game. This is why:
-Gamersafe:
Here's a tip. For your first game, don't go running around looking for every possible way to make money with your produce. You want to get your name out first and then work your way up from there. At least you should have taken up a sponsorship to get publicity. Now you've sunk to the bottom, having to rely on social networks to publicize your game. Gamersafe contributes to the zeros of this game, whether you think it's just or not. I'm not going to contact TOM FULP, even if i liked this game. Maybe you should contact Jesus and ask if Gamersafe was really a good choice, amongst oh so many other mistakes, inspired by tha lord.
-Graphics:
This isn't really a game as much as it is a picture novel. Yeah, that's right, a picture novel. The animation is dry, with great pictures and plenty of reading. It works itself out to be somewhat slow.
-Religious banter:
You put in your description: "I'm a cool guy" followed by "Worshipping God". It doesn't get anymore egocentric and bronze aged than that. This is only appropriate to mention because of the "jesus king of kings, lord of lords" statement at the beginning, and poorly attempted hidden bible messages throughout the game. You've lost most of your audience already because of other flaws, now you want to say it loud and proud that you love jesus... Congratulations. I know what you'll say too: "Hey you can hate the lord if you want, I mentioned him because of my personal relationship". I don't care about your personal relationships with deities.
-2 years in production:
Then again, you're probably used to wasting time at church also.
Seriously, no one can properly review your game because of your improper cause to implement religious propaganda through this medium. It leaves a bad smell in your game. A smell that is not desired, nor can it be ignored because of its potency. And now you're left with this anti-climatic ending... the ending that has torn the faith of your game after 2 long hard years of work dedicated to tha lord, along with a big minus on your pay, spent on contractors, and whatnot.
I enjoyed reading your review and it gave me a few chuckles.
1) Everyone is promoting an ideology or religion in their content. For some its atheism, others consumerism, or other religions. You have made your point quite clear that you hate Christianity and like to mock it. Your comment that my cause is improper really shows your disdain for others' views. It's not any more improper than anything else on this site.
2) I'm not attempting to hide any messages in the game. I'm quite open about my beliefs.
3) Your comments about how I should promote the game, the time it took, and my personal artist profile are all completely unrelated to the game playing experience and further augment your fuming review to be exactly what it is. A vent of frustration against a message you don't like.
4) I'm not going to ask Jesus if GamerSafe was a good choice. ;)
Have a nice day.
Potentially the kind of game I like. I got bored with the 'buy an upgrade' so early on. Disappearing and reappearing chests were tedious too. You need to get me hooked before I'm tempted to pay.
Okay, I created an account on GamerSafe. One problem, I DON'T HAVE THE MONEY TO PLAY THE WHOLE DAMN GAME. Why do I need REAL money to BUY COINS to BUY THE FULL VERSION?! It's a shame, I thought the Gamerpoints (or whatever they are) I was earning was what I needed to play the whole game. It's a shame, this game looked really good (even though animations looked a bit derpy). No stars ONLY because I can't play the full version.
Guys let's not penalize/punish me with a 0 star rating simply because there's some content you have to pay for. (If you love this game and want the full version for free, then contact TOM FULP. If he's willing to feature the game on the front page for a month, then I'll make the full version available for all users on NG!)
If you liked the game and you see the quality, then give it an appropriate rating.
