Can some staff members please take this game off? It's freakin' terrible! And if my review isn't accepted because the staff think my opinion was stupid <-.-> then I'll post it here.

The Concept
Well, Dink is invisible in the first map and there are a few worthless things to do here like turning off certain keys that do almost nothing at all. Then you teleport into a place where pillbugs p'wn you and you can only walk on trees.

The Mapping and the Scripting
First off, the title graphic is just a scribble. We're off to a great start here. Something neat though is you can shoot fireballs diagonally. But that's pretty messed up because they can hit themselves. The scripts make no sense either. There are people in the first map that speak nonsense like, "hit me to turn off item quick keys" or something like that. Why would I need that if there are no items to equip in the first place?! I could have at least had my fist right!? The maps are total mayhem. Why am I walking on portions of trees and pies?! Why is there a savebot you can't even reach? That's only a few annoyances this game throws at you. Why is this game even called Ex-Peppermint when it has nothing to do with Peppermints? When you get to the action parts, you will be surprised that the pillbugs are so strong. Really, these guys take away about 33% of your HP in one touch. There's really no point in fighting them unless there's a screenlock and when that happens, you'd might as well get a cheat program. I hate the MP system too. My fireball is charged but I can't cast! Come 'on! That's so ridiculous. I hated the overall layout of the maps. They were so empty and the ones that were filled were because of giant food items.

Overall, this "DMOD" is horrible. I'll be the first to say, stay away from this one. It seriously isn't worth it.

EDIT: I'd play ABCD... over this game any day.
EDIT: Closing this because you think my opinion is stupid would be stupid.

It's prolly called Ex-Peppermint because it's random?

We will not be removing Ex-Peppermint from the site.

Also, please change your sig.

Thanks.

EDIT: Thanks for changing your sig. I guess...

Nope, not a sig. A sig is something on the bottom of your post. But whatever.

Don't be pedantic.

You won't win any "ZOMG i made u look st00pid internetz pointz" here.

EDIT: Just to clarify, this topic has been locked because the forum is for discussion. It's not for people to post reviews that they think will be rejected by the staff.

Closing this because you say closing this would be stupid is not stupid; its pure genius on the part of the staff-member who actually closes it.

Also, your review would be marked out by the Review Patrol any day. I enjoyed the game, its randomness was nothing but sheer hilarity and the fight system was nicely challenging.

Anyone can nit-pick.
