Hi everybody it's your lovable blogger NightRoad here with a video game review for ya. If you have forgotten we have a 5-star rating system for everything we review.
So lets get started, today I'm reviewing something I think everybody should at least try. And it's Ben 10 Alien Force Game Creator. Which is a online game where you make the game, play the game, and have others play your game.
Game play:
For starters the controls are standard for your online game: up arrow key=jump, down arrow key=move down, left arrow key=move left, right arrow key=move right space bar=special move.
Now lets get down to business, the game play really depends on the game your playing. It can range from being very interesting and engulfing, to being repetitive and boring, and from being to difficult to even finish the goal at hand. Which brings me to the object of the games. The goals are as follows, it can be as simple as getting to the gate, or just defeating all the enemy's then getting to the gate, or getting all the gems then getting to the gate, or a combination of all three. Now that you know about the goals time to learn about how you go about completing those goals with the characters.
Characters:
There are a total of four characters and they each have there own special abilities.
Swampfire: Swampfire is a fire base character that shoots fire from his hands.
Jetray: Jetray is a flight base character that can fly, and can shoot lasers from his tail.
Spidermonkey: Spidermonkey is a primate type character that can jump really high, grab on to walls, and shoots webs from his tail.
Humongousaur: Humongousaur is a cross between a dinosaur and a really big man. He's very strong and can't jump very high.
Graphics:
The graphics are standard 2D. Don't really know if this is part of the graphics, but every once in awhile the game slows down which slows down your actions. But it isn't a very big problem for me. That's pretty much it.
Creating a Game:
The game takes you step by step through the process of creating a game. In total there are six steps you need to complete.
Step 1: Game starter
In this step you pick from nine platforms on which you build your game on.
Step 2: Background
In this step you pick from nine backgrounds.
Step 3: Hero
In this step you pick from four heroes you play as.
Step 4: Goal
In this step you pick from four goal.
Step 5: Level Design
In this step you pick what obstacles, gems, enemies, etc. that you want in the game.
Step 6: Test
In this step you test the game to make sure it's 'beatable'.
Now after all that the game will be finished.
Rating:
All in all it's a great game, so I give it 4 1/2 stars, but if I was judging individual games it would be much lower. But the creators of the game can't help what people make.
If you want to check it out the title of this post is a link to the game.
