Dark Hill (In Review)

[TheBrianPerryProject]

I love the horror genre and this game seems pretty good. And with that great launch price I'll be picking this one up. The controls are good as well. I'm not too big on the red circle part of it but it moves well regardless.

If you need to use someone else's art/code make sure its 100% ok, and/or license free, this goes for things as silly as using photos found on google for textures to finding some models you like and just sticking them in because they will save you some time. its a dangerous position to find yourself.

save your self hassle, lest we forget one of the greatest plagiarism stories of recent times (Limbo of the Lost, Google for a fun and informative read)

Agreed.

No, we all leverage existing tools, assets and media to achieve our goals, let's drop the high-and-mighty here and move on. What was done was legal and within the license rights provided, no theft was involved.

wouldnt be to worried about not being approved because of one random picture seeing as how idig was approved and the whole game is a blatant rip off of mr.driller. you should probably just change it in a an update though. just to be nice

I think the Aeon Flux thing is cool, don't think even Apple is that anal.

Game looks and sounds awesome, although the enemies looking like stiff cardboard cutouts kinda kills the dread buildup. Nice environmental events to add to the mood. I think we should be able to move the FIRE button closer to our finger instead of reaching in the middle like Zombieville.

Being able to go near certain objects and reading info (aka "Not sure where this door leads", "This picture looks old" etc) might be cool as well.

Hi, everybody! New to TA so I'm trying the forums out. But I did have a question about this game.

The graphics look good for starters, but after watching the video, I wonder about the control scheme. Is the fire button too far away from the control pads? Would a player have to stop moving every time that he/she needed to shoot at a monster? (Like taking finger off one of the pads, shoot, when monster moves then go back to movement pad, re-aim, then shoot again?) This seems to be a bit inefficient for a FPS. Thoughts? Anyone played games with this scheme before? Did it work well?

Another control scheme for FPS fail?

[WonderingIf]

Another control for FPS fail? Maybe... I don't want to jump to conclusions, but...

I'm a big fan of FPS, but I have yet to find a really good one on iPhone. Cube works pretty well. And I'm liking my experience on Wolfenstein 3D. Who knows? Maybe this control scheme will work after. I have been wrong before.
