This is a not quite finished version of the first level and part of the second of Corvus Island. I thought i'd post it to see what everyone thinks, just to see if it's worth continuing.
It's a simple platformer where you take contol of Corvin the chicken in his quest to free the Blob people from the evil fox. I think there's a few bugs and i'm open to critism. Let me know what's good and what's not. After playing ninja man by jay i lost the will to carry on! It really is that good go download it! thanks Cielx

Yes its fullscreen on mine. This could be a brilliant game because it has great graphics and a nice tune but i think its frustrating to play. It would be ruined if you added a limited amount of lives so please dont do that but you could either make it slightly easier or make half way restart points. I think i will review this...

When you get hit by two enemies at the same time you get 2 chickens

It runs in fullscreen fine on my computer. Not bad, but there are some bugs. Double-jumping somehow stops you at the top of the screen, while jumping regularly doesn't. Also, you can't move after jumping on a moving platform, which is frustrating. Collisions seem...off somehow. The levels are pretty long to complete on one try, so take Andy's advice and keep unlimited lives, and add mid-level checkpoints. This is a very good start, however.

This is great! Your graphics are wonderful; very snesy. The little one-eyed guys remind me of those aliens from Keen 6. :) I can't tell if you're using a custom platform engine, or a modifyed version of the default engine, but whatever it is, it works. This is a bit to hard for a first level. You should add check points or something. Also, add a health bar. ;) Sometimes, the animations get frozen. Other then that, great job. My mind powers are commanding you to complete this game! Go on. Yes that's right. STARE! O_o P.S. I loves chickens. ^_^

wow thanks for the comments everyone. and thanks to andy for the review. Firstly yes i suspected the game may be too hard so i figure i might ditch a few enemys and add a few more shield power ups. The platform engines so buggy simply because its not custom its just a modified mmf one- i know pretty appauling but i was more trying for my first real platform game rather than goin for perfection at this stage. Beleive it or not there is a mid-level checkpoint its the purple blob u hop on at the end of the first area. The second level(or part of it) is the beach. oh and andy the reason it looks like the green hill if u cant quite put your finger on it is the little flag/totem pole things. any ways thanks all for the asvice and andy for the review, just the thing i needed to give me the motivation to finish. cielx
