It feels like a slightly confusing version of Castlevania. For example I'm not sure how you're supposed to avoid most attacks (e.g. the stuff the fat zombies throw) and the range of your weapon is very short so there's pretty much no time to react towards enemy attacks. There's also the problem hat the game reads the key name from the layout, not the keycode so the buttons move around if you have a different keyboard layout.
I'd rather he didn't. Look at the left middle picture of the screenshot. This is one of the many reasons I always seem pissed incase you were wondering...

Dare to say what you dont like about it? I could assume but more than one thing...
weiser i think you should understand what your right and left are. i was really confused. unless you pictured yourself behind the image looking in my direction than its right not left.
Come on, don't get your panties in a bunch. It's a video game. I'm against racism in every way, but when it comes to entertainment (especially video games and comedy) it's sort of an "anything goes" playing field. Seriously man, they are cartoons, in a video game, not KKK propaganda. It's not an attack on anyone or anything, it's a darn game.
I keep forgetting you're so different from us whities, Weiser, because you sure do your best to come off seeming just the same as every spoiled whiny brat i went to school with.
Please don't get so caught up in political correctnes. There are no racists to convert here, and we all seem to agree racism is terrible, so stop preaching to the choir.
I think this game looks great, though. Eventhough the whole pirate/ninja-fad is becoming a bit tiresome, it looks like a fun arcadey game, so i'm sure i'll enjoy it.
Peace out, homies. Oh um.. i mean: i guess i'll see you later, chums. I gotta go because my mom baked some brownies. I mean blackies. nono! i mean cookies. they're cookies. Um, geez. I didn't mean it like that, Leroy.
With people like Weiser we wont get rid of racism because they manage to find some way to call something racist. If you make non-black person funny then its all cool but when the person is black you cant, why? Isnt that kinda reverse racism like that they are more equal and should be treated better because of their skin color?
Aren't many pirates bug-eyed when drawn cartoony? At least as "bug-eyed" as that guy:
oh noes! it's teh wankster pirate!
Back on topic, it looks a badass sidescroller to me. But I love 2d side scrollers more than my own mother so I may be a little biased. I am gettin a little sick of the ninja-pirate thing just like everyone else, but I can't deny the fact that pirates and ninjas are the shit
On the topic of swedes:
How many scandinavians felt wronged about their misrepresentation in the monks vs. vikings video?
I know i should really stay out of these topics because i jump into them allready well aggrivated because of the comments of a certain few tossers, whose names don't need to be mentioned. It's hard though, so forgive me if -next time this happens to a perfectly normal thread- i jump in and spout cranky nonsense.
I always thought "wanker" meant "someone who masturbates".
I thought the art for the game looked great. At that rez it reminds me of a poorly animated Metal Slug. I felt the gameplay was a bit weak, but then I didn't play it more than I few minutes. I'll see if I can play through the demo and then pass judgement.
Yeah I confuse the two all the time for some odd reason. I think my views on the french have been vindicated, repeatedly.
So you're saying if were to walk around with blinders on making excuses for everyone and everything racisim would disappear? I think not. I don't think I'm capable of expressing how serious an issue this is for me and others.
the whole idea of cartoon charictures is to exagerate prominante features, and despite you thinking it may be racist, the african american (or plain african in this game) race in general have larger lips and broader noses than other more "honkey" races. its not true of all, but it is a general difference, theres no racism here, just art style..
Weiser_Cain is right! This is horrible racism! In fact, in the interest of political correctness, I suggest we replace all art everywhere with this universal, raceless, genderless symbol:
This of course, means that most of us, as character modelers, are no longer needed. Yer all FIRED! HAH!
That may be true Rhinokey but given the history of the matter especially here in the U.S. I don't think my distaste is out of proportion.
Historicly mean spirited charactures are often used to dehumanize another group and is often if not always linked to more serious incidents, more interesting and disturbing is how I'm being attacked and insulted for being offfended.

Well Weiser your track record of being a quarrelsom biggot might be a factor.
Weiser: You're being attacked because of YOUR racism. Expecting special treatment on account of race is the definition of racism.
We have caricatured evil in Nazis, Ninjas, Chinese Ghosts, Pirates, Vikings, police, corporations, canadians, egyptians, even penguins and yes, tribal africans, black americans, gangsters and bad comedians. So what? Unless you have a propaganda campaign such as america saw in WW2 against the japanese, it's safe to say you're overreacting and pointlessly derailing a thread about a cool game. (I haven't played it, but that screenshot doesn't even look like they're being portrayed as evil.)
I'm not gonna get into this extremely idiotic feud. But I will say that this is an excellent demo... much longer than I was expecting for a student project. The background images are beautiful! I'm a bigger fan of pirates, and I'm glad both characters didn't play the same. The pirate was slower but much stronger and the ninja was fast and can jumb higher... and turn invisible, so that was nifty. They put alot of work in this. I'd buy this for my gba if it was a full game!

Great art, great sense of humor, but ultimately a very boring game. Not fun at all IMO.

This is so cool. I don't think I've ever been called a tosser. What is it exactly? Not that I disagree. I'm sure it's true whatever it is.

And maybe its your self esteem issue if you get insulted by game character?
oh noes I've got big lips!
YEAH OH SNAP I DO TOO WHAT ARE YOU GOING TO DO
NOT ONLY THAT BUT THEY'RE BLUE PURPLE YEAH BEAT THAT.
