Its hard to say. I guess most people find this pretty compelling, but to me it comes across as an unplayable clone of helicoptergame.net. It looks pretty polished for a pixel game, but I don't consider bad controls, intentional or not, to be a clever game mechanic.
- scrabble 13y agoIt's not really polished. There's no music. And almost all of the in game graphics are borrowed from other games. So I guess it's polished in the sense that those other games did the polishing. It really does come off as someone who started out trying to clone Mario, or someone who was just trying to make their first game without expecting anyone to actually download it. The lack of a paid ad-free version shows that it wasn't really expected to be downloaded millions of times.
- phaus 13y agoPolished probably isn't the right word for it. I just meant that the graphics are cohesive(even though they are copied) and the animation is smooth. Most popular games fail to achieve even that much.
