"Good, but not great."

Had fun with it, but there's just a little too much random mashing for me (though I guess it does fit the Dad spirit.) A decent time waster.

What the hell...
So, that wasn't very good. At all. Bad drawings, bad animations, bad shit-talker voice over, and makes no sense. At least it had the Super Song, so I'll give it a star for that.

Score: 7

"An improvement."

submission: Being One - Episode 3

date: September 22, 2009

This is definitely an improvement over episode two. The vampires are out of the picture, for one, and I don't have to collect things or look for passwords, for two.

I notice that you've attempted to improve the puzzle solving by actually having, you know, some puzzles, but they're extremely easy. When you turn on the pistons, all you need to do is a) be good at basic math, or b) if you aren't, just turn the first wheel all the way around once. If it doesn't turn on, change the multiplier and try again until it does. The password things are harder, but not in a good way. Since you have no way of knowing how much higher or lower the number you need is, you just have to guess. It's trial and error, which isn't fun.

Lastly, as far as I can tell, the dark matter being doesn't actually kill the player, so killing him seems a little uncalled for.

Decent, not the best point and click game here, but still worth a play through.

Score: 6

"Ugh."

submission: Being One - Episode 2

date: September 22, 2009

I hate to be the downer here, since everyone else seems to love this game, but I have a few issues with it.

I played the first game, and I thought that the game-play was a bit too simplistic for a puzzler. It made up for it with atmosphere and great story-telling, though. I don't feel like this game has either, mainly because the sudden appearance of vampires. Things get a lot less interesting and a lot more camp. The game also relies on jump-out scares, which is a disappointment. I'll admit, the first time a vampire came out of an air vent I jumped, and high. It only really works the first couple of times, though, and it quickly got old. Once I got to the final fight, It was impossible to take the game seriously.

As for puzzle solving, the same problem has carried over from the first game: It's more like one of those "Eye Spy" books than a puzzler. You never have to figure out for yourself what it is you have to do, the game just tells you outright. All you have to do is look for blood vials and passwords.

Anyway, don't let me ruin your fun. You might still like the game, if you don't mind that it has vampires now.

Score: 8

"Immersive and creepy."

submission: Being One

date: September 20, 2009

Thought it was a good, even if it seemed like more of an "eye spy" kind of game than a puzzler. Actually, I was really getting into it. The mystery of what I was doing in a test tube and who these people who experimenting on me were starting to intrigue me, and there was a great sense of immersion. That is, until the a very sudden and rather lame boss fight ruined the whole thing. Really, couldn't the game have simply ended when you walked out the door? It's a great game none the less, and I recommend to any and all fans of point and click games.

Score: 8

"Great point and click with plenty of atmosphere."

submission: Alice is Dead - Ep 1

date: September 20, 2009

Thought it was a great game, if a little short. The drawings were a pleasure to look at, the puzzles were difficult but made sense, and there was a great atmosphere creepiness and mystery, which the classic music really added to. Great job, looking forward to part 2.

Score: 4

submission: Dead Frontier: Outbreak

date: September 19, 2009

This is like a choose your own adventure book. A really badly written one, with terrible voice acting. Next time you make a zombie game, actually add some visuals, and get rid of the annoying narration. It just detracts from the atmosphere.

Score: 7

"Simple, addictive, fun."

submission: Canabalt

date: September 3, 2009

Not a bad game, especially considering how simple it is. I'm not a huge fan of the retro graphics, but that's just me. I have to wonder though, why does your guy keep running faster and faster? Is he trying to make things harder for himself? I definitely recommend this to anyone with some free time on their hands.

Score: 7

"Not bad."

submission: Anime Smash Beta

date: September 1, 2009

Reminds me of BlazBlue. The only real problem I had was that spamming down+g was a little too effective. That and the fact that it's unfinished, which is a shame, especially since both the available characters are pretty much the same. I hope that at some point you release a few more characters, because this has a lot of potential.

Score: 5

"Interesting idea, but boring game."

submission: [Visible] II

date: July 21, 2009

The idea this game this game is based around is interesting, and having to look into the reflection to see any hidden dangers could have been a good gameplay mechanic. Unfortunately, the game requires a lot of precision jumping and climbing, and the controls are too clunky for that. I think you either need to A) improve the controls, or B) space the traps out a little more. I'm also not a fan of the graphics. The animations are good enough, but the graphics themselves are just boring to look at, there's a total lack of color or style. Lastly, that guy who keeps talking to you is an asshole. This could have been a great game, but bad controls and bland graphics hold it back.
