Finally Heart of Darkness is here, took a
while didn’t it. Seeing as most people have heard about this i won’t
delve into it too deeply but here is the basic run down. You are Andy who is a typical
young boy, at least by day. At night he fights against the forces of darkness who seem
obsessed with stealing his dog. Well thats pretty well the so called plot, hmm 5 years you
say. I can’t help but feel that after 5 years they could have come up with something
a little better plot wise, ahwell was it worth the wait.
I must have hit the Zoom button:
First let me get this out of the way, the
game is in VGA, yes that’s right VGA. No SVGA or anything else, it’s all
VGA, ok. Despite this the graphics are well drawn, very well animated and very colourful.
I have to say that this game is nice looking but the viewing screen obviously is in
letterbox format due to the resolution. But no matter which way you look at it, they
should have made it SVGA, what makes it worse is it wouldn’t have taken them very
long.
Seeing as the game is rendered, then all
they had to do is re-render it at 640*480 instead of 320*240. Another graphic point are
the cut-scenes which are good and nice looking but we’ve seen better.
