Pre-thoughts

This game looks very interesting. It has a lot of use with shade coloring and light from what I see in the thumbnail. I also see there are many color shades of blocks, tiles and backgrounds. Lets see what in this game that makes it not only look great, but is great.


Review

To this game, all I have to say is wow. This game when I played it had enemy placement in all the places it needed to be in my opinion but you could differ with me as I'm not a great platform creator. And the mazes felt rushed due to the fact you saw doors, key tiles, and just plain enemies guarding the important stuff chasing you away.


This isn't what you usually see form deathleaf and I'm not sure if he was the one doing the enemies and stuff considering this was a collab between molatycoon and himself. But then again it doesn't matter, it's a great game. The puzzles in this game are outrageous. They'd always have you looking at your screen because you never know when something good or bad is going to happen in this game. And that goes along with the action as well. And when I say this it's usually because you hit a switch and when you get up ahead you see the switch you hit closed a door to the next part and then you're stuck. D: But yeah, ALWAYS keep a close eye on what you do.


For the design, it's amazing! The tiles go with everything from lighting to little torches in the floor. For me I feel like I'm in a small castle or dungeon when playing this game. I mean lava and enemies and everything from a castle is right there. And the doors go well lime a boobie trap on a small cavern or cave. It's great. One thing I could see in the future is, instead of just a door in the way put a little maze or puzzle instead of annoying people out of there seat. That's really all for the design.


I also think more action in this game or brainstorming and action type of puzzle would be great as well. Now I didn't get passed the first level in this game so I'm not sure if there's anything I'm missing that Deathleaf or Moolatycoon would like to say here because the first level really isn't all that much.


The creativity in this game, I must say it's incredible how these great game designers can come up with such mind-blowing, fantastic things! Especially these two and all the other people I have put review out to. It's amazing and this game just gives it all.
