This is the review of two games on Nitrome.com. These games are Off the Rails and Frost Bite. These games are just the first in a long list. Please feel free to comment on this post, debate these reviews and share this blog.
Off the Rails
This game was published in 2007. The game feature two green creatures that look like cactus with legs. You job is to get them to the end of the rail track. By tapping the left and right arrow keys alternatively, they pump the cart along the tracks. The up arrow is used to jump and avoid obstacles.
The game feature 20 levels of western fun, and 60 seconds are given to finish each level. Points are calculated at the end of the level. The 5 types of points to earn, and they are cash, trick, time, level and total.
The few pitfalls of this game include the inability to turn around or go in reverse on purpose. Tricks are clumsy in performance and execution. The one-hit die feature is also frustrating.
Frost Bite
The game was posted on their website in 2006. This is an artic platform game about a mountain climber. Your only tool is a grappling hook and 4 extra lives. This game also includes enemies, moving platforms and other obstacles. Your mission is to make it to the top of the mountain. The mouse is used to aim and shoot your grapping hook. The arrow keys are used to move.
Enemies are defeated by jumping on top or shooting them with the grapping hook. I don't know exactly how many levels there are. I only reached level 10. Points are collect from ice cream, enemies and BONUS letters.
The little agitating things about this game include. Your climb sliding to far, unable to shoot downward, and reload time.
