I'm honestly very dissapointed. I've said this before, but with an idea like this B+ could've finally redeemed themselves. Yet somehow, they managed to screw up a simple maze game. Pathetic.

And to be honest, the excuse that someone hasn't "got" the game because it's a "high scores" game is pathetic. In fact, it's not an excuse. One of my favorite shmups ever is DoDonPachi. I mean, I suck at it, I'm really not good at any bullet hell games, but since the gameplay is so good I'm totally ok with it. That game however at its core is a "high scores game" in it's truest form. It's designed to let you combo your kills and thereby generate higher and higher score and to get a really good score does not only take hours upon hours of practice but equally many hours of planning in order to learn how to best destroy every enemy you see and pick up as much points as possible with breaking the combo. And like I said, it's a really really hard game aswell. So yeah, every inch of it is a game made for chasing high score. This is what makes DoDonPachi a great game, and where Bit Boy!! apparently fails (other than it being the ugliest thing I've seen in years). If I wanna play DoDonPachi but doesn't wanna concern myself with high scores I can and I will have a blast doing it. Bit Boy however, if I'm not a person that doesn't care for high scores, BB offers nothing. It seems I'm much better off playing Pac-Man again for the 100th time.

I like your Bit Boy promotion by the way. Next stop: the world.

As for Bit Boy!!, I must say after hearing some impressions of the game (pretty mixed from what I've seen), this does sounds quite interesting and would be willing to drop the points for it

And of course Contra Rebirth looks pretty cool too. Even though I have never played a Contra game.

I notice B+ defenders always tell everyone they should try the game before damning it but trying means buying on WiiWare. Just don't give them the attention they want, I don't get why B+ garbage gets massive arguments over its quality when something like Fish 'em All (which looks actually GOOD, unlike this mess which looks like a bunch of idiots who were incapable of utilizing the graphics they wanted to make) is allowed to sink without a word.

@Doogle: Something I forgot to mention before was in response to your comment about the reviewer not being forced to write about everything in the game. Sure, he doesn't have to write about everything, but it's the way that he makes it sound like there's nothing much to it, and there aren't any extra features etc, when clearly there are, and so he is lying, not just missing bits out. He was also claiming a few things, such as the fact that you apparantly can't attack until the 32-bit mode, which are also wrong, and need to be rectified.

ADDED: I am not just, as you say, being a "martyr" for Bplus, I am just standing up for what I believe is right, and pointing out that this review is wrong, since it is unfair to watch a perfectly good game burn at the watch of internet flamers and badly written reviews. If it was any other game, I would do the same thing, but no such occasion has come up recently.

By Wiiloveit

Perhaps his efforts would be better spent on Wii’s World where Bit Boy!! got an insulting F grade?

As for the credits, that is absolutely not why I think the game is good. I like the game because it is a very good WiiWare game, and a lot of fun to play and gain high scores on, not because they included me in the credits. To be honest, I could say whatever I wanted about the game, my name is in the credit's and that's not going to change. If I wanted, I could go and claim that the game was useless after playing it for... what was it: an hour that this reviewer claims to have played it to death in? Instead, I'm looking at the review fairly, and I always will do / have done when looking at games.

As for your other quote, it's not like every level is based around dead ends, and these only make up some of the levels, but they add to the tactics required for the game, and with several extra lives and a continue at your disposal, as well as five different attacks for five out of the six worlds, AND the ability to jump enemies in the final world, you shouldn't find yourself in annoying situations involving dead ends very often.

Oh, and don't make this into a flame war between you and me; last time, all our comments got removed and our things were wasted yet again.

EDIT: Oh, and if you're gonna start coming up with things to try and make it sound as though I'm doing all this as part of a conspiracy with KS8 or whatever, then you're clearly no better than your average British tabloid. At the very least, you could have linked to some of the news pages that KS8 so lovingly posts a lot more than he does so with his blog. Oh, and you'll also notice Mr Objection Blaster didn't say anything exceptional about the game, so it's not like I have the whole of Wiiloveit wrapped around my thumb or anything. It's a free world, and I'm saying what I personally think, whilst standing up for what is right, rather than just liking this game because Bplus made it. Seriously, I'm telling the truth, and there's nothing more to it than that, so I think you should just end all your pointless arguing now, because it's not true at all.
