Kevin & Friends - Video Game 2: Epilogue

My review on K&F-VG2:E.

Before starting with this review. I do have one minor issue(?) with the character designs.

Their eyes are always directly looking at the player. I'm not sure if it's intentional, or a design choice? But either way nice inspiration while also creating your own spin from the DOAWK books.

Nice introduction to the game, although the sprite animations would be inconsistent with it's frames stopping at random points.

Kevin could use animation frames when he flies up to space.

This second intro card is a nice way of giving context to the story but I wish you could skip this cutscene as you would have to wait until it finishes moving off-screen.

This gameplay section is cool. It feels arcade-like. Maybe add more enemy variety, and add explosion particles when shooting a object.

I'm also not sure if this meter is helpful in this current section, because I found no way to activate it other than the boss fight after it.

I found this cutscene pretty amusing lol. The dialogue between Kevin and Marvin is quite funny.

This ties in to the boss fight. Which unfortunatly I was not able to complete. Kevin felt pretty hard to control, especially when he slows up when moving towards the barriers of the screen. The cube also glides wherever you go which is slightly hard to avoid. There is also no telegraphing to where Marvin swipes in, attempting to hit you with a sword. I might let it slide since he only comes at the exact position of the cube.

I only made it to the 2nd or 3rd Phase before I ended up dying and restarting the entire fight.

But I recommend adding difficulty options to decrease his health or either add telegraphing to most of the phases to make it a little more fair. You could also add a health bar, motivating the player of how much he has left. Or maybe add checkpoints between phases.

But other than that, nice game but could use some balancing.

Wait... Kevin and Friends: Videogame 3 is CONFIRMED?

Is there an Ost I can download
