I love the wierd. Very good game

[Rushdown Rivals Reloaded]

When you remember that when we were little we spent money on tokens to play in first-person shooter-themed arcades.

Just great.

You should see that this game is beautiful in every way. Graphics, gameplay, mechanics, effects, sound, characters (main character and bosses) and not least the ability to generate adrenaline to whoever plays it, even if they are small pixels, it does not take away any of the above mentioned.

Even so, I would like to tweak some things that at first did not let me enjoy the game in its entirety. Like the fact of reaching the winter forest, going down to the dungeons to get the shotgun and going directly to finish off all the bosses on the map, which would not be a problem if I knew which one to start with. And I don't want to sound exaggerated, but just starting with the first boss that I chose from any of the parts of the map in little to nothing was dead. He tried another and died, then another and died and so on. It was after a while that I understood that (just like megaman) I had to follow an order when choosing the boss I was going to face and after that get an improvement that would be useful for the next one on the list. I'm lucky enough to quickly understand the logic of a game. But I'm honest when I say that at first I found it frustrating to always die and feel like something wasn't right with me or the game.

But as I said before, this does not detract from the quality of the game itself. I really fell in love with this game. And I hope in the future to play the final version of it. I'd just like to suggest that to make it a bit easier to use some kind of indirect signal to tell the player which way to start. At least with the first boss. I don't think anything else is missing from the rest. I do not mention the lore because I understand that the story is personal interpretation, so it serves that purpose. Thanks to games like yours, people like me dream of being able to create something at the same level.

PS: I almost finished the game, but when I was in the battle with the sinister shadow at the beginning I made a mistake with my finger and hit the page refresh key, so all progress was lost. Although it doesn't take me more than 30 minutes to get to that point so I think I'll try again.

MrDoth responds:

Omg man, You dont know how happy I am to read this, thank you for your words and I'm so glad that you have liked the game, I will work to fix that issue as soon as possible!!! :"D

PSD: The continue button is fixed now, in theory you should be able to continue the fight with the shadow entity

I loved the game. But just as a warning in case you have a very high highscore. Don't even think about pressing "Esc" to pause. Always the "P" to pause in case your ear itches. Remember it.

LionJeff responds:

Thanks for playing and providing this warning!

CORRECT! ESC will close the game, NOT pause it - !BUT! - I can swap it if the community prefers that key for pausing!

EDIT: For clarity, I posted the controls in the description - thanks for the idea!

10 minutes of my time well spent. Short but done.

[Tricky Keys 2]

Complicated at first, but it doesn't take long to find the logic and the fun of the game. What if it is very good to pass the time.

[Egg Time Rewind]

I will never get tired of pixels

[Portaboy+]

Finally, as I have been looking forward to it. Beautiful Pixel Art and bizarre and attractive music. Congratulations.

[Catatattack!]

Amazing game, but I have to get used to the combination of keys, because when I jump and hit the character it does a zap and instead of attacking the opponent it is scattered in the air or falls to the asphalt.

But great game and cute style.
