[Duck Hunt Reloaded 4-in-1]

I Can't seem to find the full version you are bragging about somewhere. If this is just a demo because you have not done the rest of the game yet, remove it and upload it to your dumping grounds. This could be a really cool game - just super lame that it's not completed yet.

Really fun, but is it a bug?

Great game! I had fun playing it, not too long, and not too short - a big thing many game devs get wrong on here. I really don't want to waste hours on NG, it's for quick fix games.

The positives:

*The level design (chamber/room/play area - whatever) was really good.
*The storytelling was good, a little lacking in substance, but you can expect more from a game as short as this.
*Like always the visuals of the game is impeccable. It really amazes me what some people can achieve with Flash.
*The sound/music was impeccable - well done!

And now for two issues I had with the game - and here is where I say

**SPOILER ALERT**

The mechanics of controlling two characters makes the game more challenging, and forces you think differently about levels, and how you should go about working together with yourself - I like that a lot.

It seems flawed to me though:

When you go into another chamber with only one character, the other automatically appears next to you in the other chamber, regardless of where it was in the previous chamber. This makes it possible to complete a chamber doable by only one character (only water or only light), and have the other character join you on the other side. It feels like I'm abusing some glitch or bug in the game whenever I'm doing it, and it seems like the author intended the levels to be done like that?

The other problem is the 2nd or 3rd last room, where you have to make the girl stand on a far ledge in the sunlight to cast a sliver of shadow only big enough to prevent Rob from frying in the sun. Once again it feels like I'm abusing the game - "hacking" a chamber - almost like it's bad level design.

**END SPOILER ALERT**

Aside from those two things, I congratulate you on a fantastic game. I do not know what you do for a living, but I hope it's somewhere along the lines of this, otherwise it would be a waste of some serious talent.

Almost unplayably laggy...

Looking forward to the better version, then you'll get a higher score.

[Upgrade Complete 2]

If only...

Man I wish real life was this easy to get $10 000...

The best part of this game is the evolving from a total shit game, into something really amazing, by just upgrading the visuals.

This should be a lesson to all (including myself) submitters: Spend the extra time on the graphics. Look what it did to this game!

I have no Idea what you do for a living, and I really hope you get payed well by Armor. Your games are truly amazing.

Uhm

Angry birds much?!

10 stars for an amazing game, coming from someone who knows how much effort goes into something like this. Well done for that!

-6 stars for a really unoriginal story and concept.

[Big Evil Robots]

Yeah!

88000 Baby! I know if I try again I'll get all the coins...

Great game. But the music is very repetitive and gets annoying after a while.
