These gfx are awsome,they work together and give it an amazing atmosphere

[Necromian]

Oh my, I've been waiting a while for the untitled game to be released

It's graphical style is definitely unique, but It's still an amazing game!
Great job!

a gameplay vid would be nice. Think of it like a more effective version of a screenshot.

How about an interactive gameplay video? A demo? I have that!

Seriously though, I don't think this game is very suited to videos, it is too much based on discovery and atmosphere. Just play the demo!

The graphics are not "bad". They are unique and wonderful, it's impossible to compare them to regular pixel art or 3D graphics - can you compare an apple with an orange? No, you can't.

While I'm no good at this sort of stuff, and I haven't gotten to play it for long, it definitely feels top notch. Exploration is pretty fun, and the game itself should be considered a masterpiece in an artistic sense. A good alternative to ripping your hair out (in joy, of course) of playing the Jumper series.

Glad to see that you finally finished this, YMM... I'll have to give it a try again!

To everyone who says the graphics are bad, please - try to understand that not every game needs to have hyper-realistic visuals in order to be stylistic and effective.

[MMORPGguy]

compare it with 3d games like world of warcraft and halo

<{POST_SNAPBACK}>

uhh...

those two games are probably the two most uber games of all time... and cost 30+$$$. but this game is just 1$. and not only that, but halo and WoW are.. well... halo and WoW type games.

lol.

hehe so are you saying that 2d graphics are as good as 3d lol they are both graphics only that 3d is more advanced.

<{POST_SNAPBACK}>

More advanced in some ways, less advanced in others. There's a certain charm about 2D and the definition of sprites and tiles that 3D has always lacked, and is one reason I far prefer 2D graphics. And personally I prefer the graphics of this game to dull clichéd looking crap like World of Warcraft and Halo. Feels more imaginative and creative and hey least I ain't gotta be messing around with camera angles all the damn time.

Anyways great job with this game. It's got a very immersive game world with a lot of character to it helped mostly by the 'simple' graphics and the great choice of sound and music. I find the gameplay a tad tough myself but it's a keeper for sure. When I get my USB adaptor back off a friend I'll plug my joypad into it and have a proper go.

It's like a golden oldie what name i don't remember (that, where is also egg). I loved that game, because it was SOOO good. You're game is also good! 8/10, because that golden oldie was better But you're game is just awesome. I think, that here isn't anything extremely hard to make in system? But so big world. That takes a kinda much time and i think, that i wouldn't do never something so big like it is. Keep going! But i don't buy full version, because i don't buy games usually. I'm better looking for any other game what is kinda like this and one thing more: i collect money for buying G25.

[huh?]

personally i loved it, i think the graphics complement the gameplay extremely well. the controls are easy to use and there is always the compulsion to see what is in the next room. nice one=]

[Nobody]

I want to buy this, but don't have any acces to digital money or whatever. What if I put 10 euros in an envelope and you give me your address? Might work...

its a great game but the graphics are bad if u compare it with 3d games like world of warcraft and halo.

<{POST_SNAPBACK}>

You're an egg...

This game is cool. And it looks great. 2D or 3D doesn't matter, it's all in the style. The game seems to play well to boot. You'll be getting a buck or two from me any day now. It's really a cheap price for a game of this calibre

[Newly Discovered]

i'm not even going to play this. graphics are horrible. maybe they do fit the style...if so, the style sucks. the graphics are an awful way to present a commerical game.

I think the graphics give the game a very nice effect.

[CaKsTeR]

AWWW! i love this game, and then i got to sky sand, and it tells me i cant go in there with the demo > i wish i could buy this >.>

[edmunn]

I always thought Newly Discovered knew a lot about games, guess not.

[deen0229]

This game is one of the best in the GMC. It is original and addicting.
The graphics aren't bad, because all the sprites come together like a jigsaw puzzle.
Too bad i can't buy it

PS: Newly Discovered's opinion doesn't really count, because it is out-opiniated(if it is a word ) by everyone elses opinion in which they say the game is good.

hmm.. maybe i could make a deal with my mom.. i give her 1 dollar, and she lets me use her visa ^^

[edmunn]

I just asked my da, "if i give you £2.37, could you donate $5 CAD to www.helixgamesinc.com/"

He said yep.

[LFF]

This must be one of the most Awesome games ever created in GM!
The graphics are great, and the gameplay is good too. THe difficulty on each setting is a good curve, and even if you finish it on one difficulty setting, it's still interesting enough to do it on another!

I'll give a more detailed review on the HC.
