Reviews for HomeRun!

Nice graphics, but the mechanics seem overly repet

I personally find the game mechanics tedious. A simple game of timing stretched beyond breaking point. And the signals of when we need to swing etc. seemed a bit woolly. Occassionally it'd look like the bat was swinging through the ball!

I got to level 2 of 'difficult' before failing a level. After completing that and failing the final level, it wouldn't let me retry the final level, sending back to the one before!

The music is beautiful, but seems unsuitable for this game.

The 'homerun' audio got annoying quickly .

The inclusion of the jump is baffling when it only hinders us from achieving the goal.

On the flipside, the graphics were well drawn, animation smooth and I love the style with which you show the blur of the bat as it's swung. Also, some sweet colours for the background.

Decent.

The graphics/player animations were pretty good, and the idea was fine, but the controls lacked a bit.

When you jump you can't even swing, so how can you hit the higher balls? At first I could never make a homerun, but then I got the hang of it and it came easier. Unfortunately, sometimes it easier to hit the ball by simply holding the spacebar and standing still, which ruins the element of skill in the game.

The "HOMERUN!" announcement was kind of annoying, and the quality of sound wasn't very good.

You should have made it so that the music continues when you go from Training back to Menu. Also, you should have looped it so that when the song finishes, there isn't just silence. If not that, at least a Play/Stop button for music.

Overall a decent game, but nothing spectacular. There is lots of room for improvement.

P.S. I'd just like to mention that you used my song "in the meadow" without crediting me. I've sent you a PM, and I hope that you give me proper recognition soon :)

Hey man, Real sorry about that, It's done. Id just like to say, As a responce to all reviews that this game was intended for a minigame. It took a total of 2days to make and i have seen so many worse games, You guys act like hell has risen, =(.

not that good

this game is not that good.all i had to do was stand still and hold space bar. no much imagination. maybe if it was upgraded into a proper baseball game it would work.

Not soooo good...

In training mode it glitches if you run to the far side, you fall off the edge, unless you jump off the far side then you land on the top of the screen?
Anyway, I don't think this game is THAT good... But its better than some i guess.
