It's clear a lot of work went into this one. A mixture of DDR and Tower Defense games, this game features great music, sleek graphics and an intuitive interface.
I liked the playfield/towers/etc, that they were well designed enough to be able to "read" what's happening at a glance. For example, towers are color-coded by type, and shape-coded by upgrade level. When a hundred things are happening at once, this is very useful.
The gameplay is fast-paced and fun, and does a great job of combining the Rhythm Genre with the Tower Defense genre. Playing it reminded me of the first time I played Dance Dance Revolution way back when. Except this time it didn't involve me sweating, panting and making an ass of myself in public.
I always wished Nintendo would make a sequel to Balloon Fight, perhaps on the GameCube, with better graphics and more features. It seems this wish has been granted, in the form of a truly awesome Flash game!
This was very well done! I was expecting some cheap trick like keeping the volume low throughout the movie then blasting a scream noise. But nope, none of that here!
One thing I thought was particularly cool was the "camera-work", with fairly good looking first person head bobs, objects 'moving' in relation to the camera, and even focusing (objects in the background become blurred to make the foreground stand out).
The only problem I see, this being kind of minor, is that the music in the scene with the letter was a bit on the repetitive side.
Please, may you grace us with the greatness that will be AHTM3, with enough haste that it will not drive your loyal followers to spontaneous combustion, but not so hasty that something gets left out.
It looks like it was cheaply done, but only if it werent a flash animation. I can tell that a lot of work actually went into this, as almost everything is constantly moving as if someone were holding it by a stick. Good Show!
Commander Keen was an awesome game, and Dopefish lived on as one of the oldest gaming inside jokes ever! This movie pretty much sums up the legacy of the famished nemesis of Billy Blaze!
