In Topic: Gmc Review Jam - Discussion Topic

Today, 01:20 AM

My review's somewhere in Reviewer's Choice. It's up to you if you want to link it. It's not particularly good (and neither was the review-version JD update) because I ran short on time. I really would have liked to spend more time on it. Tbh, I wasn't expecting to do that well as soon as I realized I had the wrong start/end dates, but I do have a couple additions to the list of games I wanna try, thanks to this. :)

 

For the next RJ, I suggest giving everyone TWO weeks to play their games and write their reviews. Not only would this give some leeway to anyone who's busy, but anyone new to reviewing won't feel so rushed, which especially matters if we start getting really long and detailed games. I know you don't have to finish the entire game to write a review, but it helps a lot if you have the whole picture (and it's nice for the developer too!).

 

@Alex: It was intentionally timed to be right after the Jam. :)

It's a good start, but it has a ways to go. I couldn't get Normal Mode to work at all. It says "YOU WIN" then drops me back at the menu. Survival Mode works, but I'll get to that in a moment. I'd strongly suggest changing the Create Your Own Map message to "You'll need to download the editor. Go to webpage? Yes/No" instead of opening it regardless. I actually closed the game in order to avoid going to the website.

Anyway, survival mode's okay, but it needs something to set it apart from the other thousand dodging games that exist. I couldn't last more than a few levels because I get stuck if I change directions too quickly. I see that it's in beta, so I'll try it again when you've finished it, and I'll try Normal Mode when it works.

It's a very nice start, with smooth controls and a fun concept. I agree with what Slinky and shadow gamer said, it's a little difficult for the first level.

The graphics are very nice, but I find that they don't really fit. The story is kinda light-hearted and goofy, but the graphics are dark and moody. It'd be fun if you could see the girls' lovestruck expressions as they're chasing Mike, and Mike's fleeing-in-terror face. And you see a message when you get caught, saying YOU GOT COOTIES or something lol.

The controls are also hard to get used to. I think using the arrow keys would be more intuitive than Z and X, but that's up to you.

3/10 At least you're aware it's annoying. <_<

Just a reminder: Everyone rolls a 6 for the next, final turn. Make it count!

 

Also, Lukas, you didn't answer my question.
