Okay, To start off.. This game kind of cliché, not necessarily how it was set up so on and so forth, but more less, the style. The graphics, were RTP, not full RTP but there was some of it in there. I have nothing against seeing RTP in a game, but Of course it shows more effort if you don't see any at all. One big issue I have relating to the graphics, was how the maps were setup/built, they were very large, and didn't have alot of detail and such in them. I found myself walking around in huge spaces too much in this game. "Face Maker PL" was also used in this game.. It's quickly becoming over-used..

Now, Characters were built pretty well, I could understand each and you could kind of grow on them, the author could have went more into detail about them though, just remember, it never hearts. I'm also going to go more into detail about why this was cliché, remember, I said "style" The was the villain was sitting on the throne in the middle of the lava was a big one for me. If you play for yourself I'm sure you'll notice some things, nothing huge, so I won't let it effect the score. The music.. I also had a problem with this, I wasn't really feeling it, and I didn't match the situation very well.. Nothing much else, I hope you improve on these portions written about and maybe even re-submit your game to us. thanks for reading.

Thanks for the review GhostClown.  But I'm not too sure what you mean by style.  And as for what you said on the characters, I didn't really make the demo too big enough to show the characters personality and such.  But now that I know what to improve, I will definetly do so.  One more thing, can you explain the whole lava thing to me?  Before the lava I had put just regular carpet.  Do you think I should have stayed with the carpet?

Yeah, Carpet would have been good. :)
And Style, I'm talking about how things played out and your characters choices, it wasn't a huge matter that's why I didn't emphasize on it.

GhostClown can you delete this thread?  I'm remaking the demo, and it's no longer like this one.  Plus the title is different.  Thanks.
