Toilet Kids
Xevious in a toiletGenre: shooter - vertical
Publisher: Media Rings
Year: 1992
System: PCE
Gameplay Score: 1
Gameplay Notes:
Xevious gameplay (bombs and a peashooter). Incredibly slow movement. No powerups or weapons. Impossibly difficult.
Level Design Score: 1
Level Design Notes:
Most of the that's are enemies on the ground. They shoot most of the projectiles and the only way to survive is to get them as soon as they appear. This forces you to play near the top of the screen which also exposes you to the projectiles which move faster than you. In other words, the level design accentuates the gameplay limitations of this dumb game.
Theme Score: 1
Theme Notes:
You're a kid who gets flushed down the toilet. Let that sink in (pun intended). In not 8, so I don't think this is funny.
Art Style Score: 1
Art Style Notes:
The most boring set of enemy sprites you've ever seen. Most are amorphous blobs. The artwork is flat, boring, and forgettable.
Audio Score: 1
Audio Notes:
The peashooter shot is so annoying! Music is fine but man the sounds are unbearable.
Overall Score: 20
