[FlxAdventure]

Pretty good game

A really well put-together game! I do believe I'll be adding this to my favorites. There's a glitch in level 3 though, I'm able to walk on the water on the southern river and walk all the way off of the map. Just thought I'd let you know.

uh-oh, I'll have to look at that...

Or did you just enter the Jebus code? ;)

Not Bad

Fun and well programmed.

It would be better if there were upgrades you could manually purchase for the cannon like other games have. Such as faster firing, better cooling system, ect. The overheating system was a nice touch, it kept it from being too easy.

Fun but too glitchy

I'm voting 0 just because I think you need to go back and work on the game some more. The timer is broken (it doesn't reset when the game does; it starts at where-ever it was when you finish the game. I don't know whether you meant for the barriers to totally stop the car or just slow it down, but it does neither very well; there was one point I got stuck in the middle of a barrier and it wouldn't let me turn out of it. The instructions say to make it to the point before the time runs out, but your timer only seems to count upward. Also, you should use a different font or color scheme in the menu; it was exceedingly difficult just to figure out exactly what the instructions say. It was also very odd that the car did not change coordinates or even direction between levels and that it seemed to drive and handle the same whether it was going forward or in reverse.
If you fix these problems your game could be worth more towards a 3 or 4.

Hmm...

Well... I wont blam it, because it's origional and seems like you put some work into it... but it just seems like there's too little point to it, like theres something missing from it...
Perhaps if you added sound effects to it or a surprise ending when there's no more money left it would be better?

One of the best Flash Games I've ever seen!

Great game all around. The visuals were beautifully detailed and I give it huge points for origionality in flash games (there are so few really good point-and-click mystery games). The ending was also neat how it makes sure the player was paying attention through the game. The author obviously put a lot of time and love into this project.

One thing I would change is to mabey reconsider the inclusion of some unimportant clues (I beat the game while missing the glass shards in front of the mirror as a clue the first time, I went back to find the clue I missed later and really gained nothing new out of it).

Also, as another user said, some players may enjoy figuring out who's lying for themselves instead of making it an easy mini-game. Though I understand if others like it just how it is. Perhaps compromise by adding a difficulty settings option? Or an option to accuse anyone of lying than have some kind of penalty for getting it wrong (such as a score that lowers)?

Once again, great game all in all. Can't wait for a sequel!
