Solid game play. The concept is easy to understand and follow.  The only thing missing is music.

Developer

Thanks for playing! What os are you running it on?  I only ask because there should be music and sound effects (even an evil boss laugh).  I wonder if maybe they don't play on certain version of windows?

Submitted

windows 7. Sound FXs play but no music.

Oh man, it's a full blown ninja turtle RPG... It's like broke geek Christmas!

...But you'd think the turtles would be skilled enough to shoot diagonally, or at least not give code errors every other time they die :/

Developer

lol thank you!  I'll have to look into the errors when dying...I wasn't able to duplicate them. Every time I die I just go back to character select.

I really liked the characters and the animations!

I know the main characters are turtles, but I think they need to be a bit faster for this kind of game to work. It's hard to dodge and evade when the enemies walk straight towards you faster than you can move.

Developer

Thank you!  Completely agree, I should have spent more time time to balancing the game. =/ I just cheat and use the pink turtle bc she's super fast lol

The character looks like the one in hopfrog's forager.

The walking animation is very cute!

I think the room should be a little smaller. Sometimes I had to search for the last enemy. That being said, that also might be a problem with the restricted resolution.

But overall it was fun!

Developer

Thank you!  Yeah I had a hard time balancing room size with the number of enemies in each.  I think I should have went with more rooms that were smaller and had fewer enemies.  Thanks for playing!
