Well I've had the pleasure of reviewing two excellent games today, one of which is Lil' Pirate. I wasn't sure what to expect from this game, since the screenshot shows what looks like a toy man sitting in a toy bus, but I'm happy to say that this is a very well made game with a good engine, and a good save system. As far as plot goes, there isn't much. You're a short chubby pirate on a mission to shoot crustaceans with a variety of neat weapons, that's all you need to know!

Gameplay is very well done. Controls are crisp and responsive, and there is enough variety in the levels to really keep the game interesting. Controls can feel a but slippery at first, but you'll soon get the hang of it. Gameplay is kept interesting by the fact that there are a wide variety of items and weapons to collect, including two kinds of bombs, arrows, coin throws and more!

Graphics are top notch. Characters all have detailed and smooth animation sequences, and levels are colorful and expansive. There are secret areas, multiple paths, and hidden treasures all over the place! Bosses are also large and impressive. It's truly a beautiful game.

Sounds and music are also very fitting for this game. The music might have been a little more upbeat, but it still helps to add personality to each level. Sound effects are also well done.

Thanks to an excellent save system, the lastability of this game will be very high. Your progress is saved after each level, and levels are laid out on a simply and clear map screen. There are also very well placed checkpoints, such as just before boss fights. These things help keep the frustration factor low, and let you focus on enjoying the game.

Overall, this is a wonderful game and will provide most gamers with several hours of fun gameplay. Levels are creative well designed, bosses are large and menacing, and the game's engine is very well made. It would have been nice to have more of a story plot, but even without that, this game is a real gem! Highly recommended for any gamer!
