Unity Max the Elf [v5.15b] [T-Hoodie]

[Krinkelz]

This game is unbalanced ass where trying to break free even at the low seed counts is a damn chore. With shit all over the place enemy placement that seems pretty much unavoidable.. Yea I know I'm supposed to get hit and see the animations but I'd like some actual control of which enemies I want to see...

 

[Ariyana]

It's pretty easy to no-hit every single stage.

Skill issue.

While I do want to give the benefit of the doubt here, there comes a certain point where a complaint like this stops being credible and becomes closer to blaming the game for your own shortcomings. I may be better at games than most people, but I can very much tell the game is NOT that hard if you know what you're doing and utilize every tool you have. I mess up sometimes in "unavoidable" situations, but oftentimes I could have used a wave attack or just been a bit more observant and I would have done better. The game isn't meant to be a breeze, mind you, but there's a difference between being bad at a game and a game being unfair and/or unbalanced.

Who cares if you can no-hit? This game is punishing if you're unable to hammer the buttons when you do get hit. Some players are physically disabled. I for example have an injury from childhood that makes hammering physically painful. That means waiting as long as 40 seconds for the scene to finish every single time I mess up. That gets frustrating real quick.

...I guess that's fair? But again, that comes down to avoiding getting hit in the first place. You cannot fairly rate a game based on how it accomodates to you specifically, ESPECIALLY if you have something like that that makes it harder for you to interact with a primary mechanic. The dev is under no obligation to accomodate your health issues, as you are a very small part of the audience. If you know you have this issue, then find a way around it instead of yelling for the game to change for you.

Real easy to say find a work around when you're not constantly finding games with the same mechanic. In this case the "work around" is to either wait, restart the level since it's quicker (my current tactic), or edit the game to make the bar fill with button holding. All of them are annoying.

Button mashing is an extremely common mechanic in video games, my guy. Your "real easy to say" argument loses a lot of value when you look at the fact that 50% of the gaming industry is built with the context that your hands aren't fucked up. While it does suck what happened to you and the fact that it's causing so much of a struggle, the fact that it's so prevalent SHOULD be more of a motivation for you to get better at those games so that you don't have to worry about that mechanic. The industry will not change because some people's hands are worse than average, so you have to adapt if you still want to be involved in it. Does it suck? Yes. But there's nothing much we can do about it.

Nga I come here to jack off, ain't gonna fucking break my keyboard over a poorly coded porn game. I have played games that require mashing to escape and it's nowhere near as poorly optimized as it is in here.

Mfs really say skill issue over a porn game and somehow feel superior. Wild and sorta sad

Even in a porn game forum you get some real class acts.

Dude I ain't gonna set here and argue with you whether it's skills or bad controls. I have played many (porn) games over the years, ranging from good to bad, good controls or bad controls as I mentioned so I know what I'm saying.

I suggest you learn reading comprehension, as the only blame I gave is for the poorly coded game

 

[Deleted member 9226125]

I gotta admit, this game is kinda hard sometimes.

 

[Flugelbozz]

Who's breaking the keyboard in this game? Im pretty sure it's impossible to mash since the game doesnt register it and it's coded (weirdly) in a way that requires the player to alternate button presses in a rhythm. I can even get away from corrupted boss in stage 4 whilst being fairly slow.

If there's anyone mashing in this game, go check and see if the icons actually match up

 

[DudeFromDownunder]

I'm sorry, but you're all just bad at video games.

Not that the game is perfect or the gameplay without flaws: button mashing is indeed stupid, normal enemies are way too repetitive, etc.. But it's an indie game, an adult game at that, meaning budget is probably lower than that of a Hollow Knight. You shouldn't expect a full fledged sidescroller on the scale of something like Ori.

But it's definitely not too hard.

i can wank and finish the game at the same time, you're all peasants

Wanker.

 

[Krinkelz]

Man, this place really is full of mouthbreathers.. no one's fucking expecting AA budget and gameplay from a fucking porn game, just decently responsive controls and the ability to somewhat control what's happening, since this is a fucking porn game where you want to mostly have a wank at your leisure. What's so fucking hard to understand? It ain't rocket science. Many porn games have done that, so it can be done. If not, then make the breaking free not a damn chore to do

Literally updares once in a year

 

[Adlewdz]

My only real issue with the game is that you have to avoid mashing too fast. If it were actually rhythm based with some indicator of when to press I'd be fine, but instead you just have to wing it and hope you guess the speed right. Sometimes it does feel impossible to escape in time with how slow you have to mash.

Curiously this is not the first time I got this talk. Just replace industry with school. Said it would be unfair for the other kids if I as allowed any extra time or other changes. If it were anything besides a video game, would you give this same talk? It's not a gatcha question, just curious.
