Игрокритика № 015

Платформер нового поколения: теперь картинка плавно ползет навстречу игроку, как у серьезных дядь на серьезных консолях.
Никаких других элементов геймплея толком не завезли, спрайт кенгуру нарисован per rectum, накладывается на фон он весьма грубо, а еще главный герой почти не рулится.
За заставку и за ползущую картинку (скроллинг, запомните это слово ;) хотел поставить этому опусу пятерку с минусом. Но, подумав немного, решил, что всё же

4/10.

aGGreSSor: Были советские буклеты проектов приусадебных домов, глянцевые листики с хорошей полиграфией, и вот там я видел такие Минидомики - их предлагалось на 6 сотках строить, но народ больше всё-таки сараи строил))
aGGreSSor: Рисуйте, рисуйте простое и сложное.
Рисуйте, рисуйте не ради молвы.
Рисуйте, рисуйте, как вы только можете.
Рисуйте, рисуйте, как видите вы...

Dimidrol: Из конкурса детских рисунков.
