Lead/infobox
editThe game feature
- should be "features"The game was announced in April 2001 and released soon after. The game
- not a GA requirement, but I would suggest changing the second "The game" to "It", to avoid having two consecutive sentences begin with the same phrase- Jim Meston is mentioned in development, and should be included in the infobox
Gameplay
editThe game also includes moving platforms and teleporters
- This reads as "in addition to the platforms Keen can stand on, there are moving platforms". I assume he can stand on moving ones as well.- I think you should probably introduce the concept of entering levels from the overview map before
Once entered, the only way to exit a level
The game contains a variety of enemies in their levels,
- not a GA requirement, but I would suggest the simplerThe levels contain a variety of enemies
who must then be jumped on with the pogo stick to kill or destroy.
- am I reading this incorrectly, or should it beto be killed or destroyed
?
Plot
edit- I have never played this or any other Keen game - sacrilege, I'm sure - so I will just have to trust you that the plot summary is accurate. It looks good, with one small exception:
won't
should be changed towill not
Development
edit- Everything seems in order here. I would probably personally name the section something like "Background and development", but that's just my own opinion and not something you need to do for this review
Reception
editthe music and sound effects lack of upgrade
- should probably bethe music and sound effects' lack of upgrade
. Everything else looks fine.
Final comments/discussion
editThis article is very close to GA, with just a few minor changes that need to be made. I have also left a few suggestions that aren't necessary for GA purposes, but that I still think would improve the article. I'll leave this On hold for a week - if the issues are addressed by then, I'll pass the article.--IDVtalk 11:28, 18 September 2016 (UTC)
- All the issues have been addressed (by me).
