"I played another game like this on here..."

submission: Distopix

date: November 7, 2008

+ Fun, simple, and addictive.

+ Simple graphics worked well.

+ Music didn't make me claw out my eardrums.

+ Great expansion on the multi-perspective dodger/shooter concept.

- The random generation sometimes made walls appear, so I had no choice but to lose a life.

- Would be better if it was synced to the music. It always immerses the player a little more...

Awesome avoid game! Tweak it a little more, make a longer game out of it, and you could have a truly amazing avoider. Gave it a five to bring the score up more than a four would (3.71 was a bit too low), the big gold review number up there is still a 7/10 (Would've been a 7.5 if I had the choice), and it's in my favorites.

Score: 6

"Pretty fun..."

submission: Mouse-Eaters 2

date: November 5, 2008

+ Fun levels, well designed.

+ Right click proof.

+ Very playable.

+ Saves your progress.

- Ads EVERY TIME YOU LOSE. Yes, they annoy me.

- Level select screen has problems. (Such as, as soon as you select a certain level, you're eaten.

- Is level 21 broken?

Overall: 3/5, 6/10. Favorited. Not a bad game.

Score: 5

"A few problems, but not too bad."

submission: Orb Escape

date: October 20, 2008

Starting score: 5

+ Generally fun (+2)

+ Addictive (+1)

- Orb sticks to walls (-1)

- Deaths reset between levels at times (Intentional? -0.5)

- Level 25's starting point is in the path of a pink stick, causing one death to trigger six more (-1)

- No music or sound (-0.5)

Overall, a fun game, but it needs some tweaking.

Score: 8

"A mostly fun game with a couple problems."

submission: Hairball

date: August 30, 2008

- The hit detection was off.

- The ball is somewhat difficult to control.

+ The art was good.

+ The level design was, too.

+ Good music (Thank all that is wonderful and covered with chocolate).

* You might want to include more moving objects and powerups/downs. Every good game has powerups now...

Similar games: Ball Revamped series, Ball Revamped fan games.

Now fetch me my spicy cheese sauce. These tortilla chips are pretty flavorless alone.

Score: 8

"Fun puzzle game, even though I failed miserably."

submission: Crush

date: August 23, 2008

Simple graphics and fonts, though that doesn't really matter much. Happy to see the puzzles aren't randomly generated. It could use a little more, mainly powerups and extra lives. Maybe the top AND bottom (Or even the sides) could move toward the center. Maybe you could have shapes other than simple block holes to squeeze into. How about hard to reach holes for bonus points? Would you be insane enough to have us rotate a certain shape to fit in a certain hole?! Well, anyway, I thought it was fun and addictive, and you should put a little more effort into this idea. I'd love to see at least one future game! :D

Oh, and there should be a button that speeds up the blocks. It's be nice when you know you're about to win or lose.

Score: 5

"Just another shmup."

submission: Linear Assault

date: August 20, 2008

- No pickups or other upgrades

- Repetitive gameplay

- Nothing that sets it apart from the rest

- Very few enemy types, mostly just straight shots

- Long boss fights, boring attack patterns

- No clear hitbox

- Boring backgrounds

+ Game saving

+ Good ship and designs

+ Movement was excellent

+ Addictive

3/5, 5/10, favorited because it's a shmup. :P Needs more to it. Add some more features, etc.

Recommending The Last Canopy, RaidenX and Space Wing for fans of this genre.

(Note to self: Do more reviews like this one.)

Score: 6

"Hmm..."

submission: Black'n'White 2

date: August 10, 2008

Not much that sets this apart from other games. It takes too long for you to come back after a failure, and on level 9 there was a glitch and my character didn't come back. Level 8 was just plain annoying, by the way. It's not bad, but it needs more work.

Score: 5

"Needs improvement..."

submission: Feel the Beat (F2Jam)

date: August 6, 2008

- Not "keysounded". (To those who don't know what that means: You aren't actually playing the music by hitting the keys.)

- The sync could use work.

- The space key isn't used enough.

- The couple of songs weren't that great.

- Somewhat easy for experienced rhythm game players.

3/5, 5/10. Keep working on it.

Score: 4

"What can I say?"

submission: Break Out Army

date: July 22, 2008

There isn't much new, the menu layout is a bit simple, there are annoying sound glitches, it's hard to start without losing a life instantly (The player should launch the ball), and the paddle movement is off-center in Survival. Plus, can anything be done about the glitch where the ball sticks to the paddle? Maybe have the boss battles in the main game, more block types, more creative layouts, etc.? Try resubmitting after a bit more work, especially with the game dealing the ball to you. I can't get past level 2 because of it!

Forgot to mention... the paddle's a bit too slow, and the ball gets caught in endless loops. I'd like to see moving blocks in Breakout...

Well, back to trying to beat level 2 without getting caught in a loop and having to sacrifice a life and lose the rest.

Score: 7

"Good."

submission: Space Wing

date: July 20, 2008

It's pretty decent overall. My only major complaint is that the ship is huge compared to most other shooters. It makes the game feel cramped, unlike games like Raiden, where it feels roomy and is still challenging. I like it though.
