You are strapped into a chair, you must jiggle yourslef free, but don't cause the precariously balanced bomb to fall while your at it. "Action Movie : The Game" has everything you could ever want in a game, explosions, fast cars, and escapes. All of it crammed into the theme of "10 Seconds."
Honestly, games like these are the reason I like LD so much. There are tons of generic platformers and such (I mean, there's nothing wrong with that, I made one too in April), but this one is among my favorites so far. Very short, not a lot of content or gameplay, but it's cool as hell.
I love the concept, the execution was a little rough around the edges. I must have made that dynamite fall a dozen times before getting it (and even then, there wasn't much to it. It's just a matter of "getting it"). I also crashed that car a bunch of times before noticing the parachute pack. I thought that it was just part of the background. I enjoyed the mouthed sound effects.
Hardest part was trying to not knock the explosives off the shelf. Drove off the cliff a few times before figuring out that he didn't already have the parachute. The parachuting at the end was a nice touch. Fun idea, well executed and of course realistic sound effects :)
Wow, this is really quite intense, I only made it by the skin of my teeth. With polish this could really become something quite special. Overall a really fun and unique game!
