"Who doesn't want to be a dragon?"
Pros:
Art looks good despite it's simplicity.
The health box is a neat idea.
Cons:
No music or sound.
Hit boxes were really awkward.
Pretty plain. There's almost nothing to the game.
Overall:
A system of progression, complete with various abilities and enemies/ bosses/ points would make this game amazing.
It seems like a bug that when I hit the humans, they set on fire after a few seconds no when hit.
- Dragon's controls and actions are tight and quite cool. I enjoyed it.
- The arts aren't great but at least they're here ^^ Some animations are a bit buggy (see the crossbowan throwing his weapon, stuck in the air upon dying!)
- The gameplay could have bit really fun but there is a few things that bothered me: the arrows' speed make them almost not possible to dodge with reflexes, they're simply too fast. Therefore my only solution is to travel the screen one side to the other, so I minimize the risk of taking damage, but that ruins the mechanics of aiming enemies... Finaly, talking about aiming, if there is a point later in the game where I need my straight fireball, I didn't reach it :(
- Also the "level design" (rythm at which enemies spawn) is kinda slow and that makes the game not very dynamism.
All that said, this is a pretty cool entry you have, especially regarding the theme. Burning peasant and crossbowman to the crisp => that's dragon life :)
I'm not quite sure what I was supposed to use the forward fire breath for. To defend against arrows?
Damn, those clouds are fast!
