Raven: The Yoyo Commando Beta 2
Developer: V Games (http://vplanet.cjb.net)
E-mail: vance_velez@hotmail.com
Genre: 1-Player Platform Game
Release Date: July 2000 (Downloadable at Expo)

Ever wanted to fly across the skyline in a hoverboard or swing across a lush, tropical jungle? Raven: The Yoyo Commando makes this all possible in this strange but Mega Man/Castlevania inspired platformer from V Games, in their new QB Expo exclusive beta of Raven: The Yoyo Commando.

The update to the ongoing platform project puts commando Raven back against the evil General Dorfulglagg and his army of alien slugs, but this time Raven has some new moves that will make it a lot easier for him to take care of business! Raven's original abilities from the first Beta still exist-- Raven earns different weapons for solving some the game's levels a la Megaman, and he's also able to jump and adapt to the layout of the game's various levels. During your journey through Raven Island, you'll see Raven fly, swim, or whatever the level demands, making each experience a new one.

The major improvement in Raven: The Yoyo Commando since Beta One is the inclusion of a diagonal jump button. By pushing Home or PgUp on the keypad, Raven is able to jump at a 45 degree angle in either direction instantly! This makes it easier for Raven to hop over pits that used to be unnecessarily difficult due to poor control.

In addition to this first improvement, the bosses in Raven: The Yoyo Commando have been modified so that they fight more fairly than before. No longer will Raven have to stress about bosses that rapidly strike at him, as bosses have been slowed down so that the game may still be a challenge, but beating the game no longer requires being a perfectionist.

Perhaps the best improvement that makes the new version Raven: The Yoyo Commando a must download over its previous version is the inclusion of two new game levels, The Naga Temple and the Slug Mothership! These two new levels, previously inaccesible, allow Raven to experience some all new platform adventures. And since you can choose which levels to play in what order, these new levels can be tried quickly so that veterans of Yoyo Commando can immediately get into the game.
