[Armor Picross 2]

Awesome game.

First off, my hat's off to you guys. It's very addicting. To other users who have said you have to guess, I don't think that's the case, I've done every puzzle except the first 10 of the "extreme pack" and haven't had to guess even once. Instead, you might want to try flexing that brain muscle a little more.

Now, my problems with the game are this: the art is awful. And by "art" I mean the reward at the end for solving the puzzle. In most cases, the resulting image is more pixelated than the puzzle itself. I had to take a few seconds and savor my work before filling in the last box and my hard work was whisked away, replaced by giant black blocks.

One extra tweak might be to provide a modifier key to fill in all the boxes between two clicks with "X"s. Having to drag the mouse (or trackpad, even worse) along 25 squares is a small pain in the ass. Two clicks would have been a good idea. Something most people wouldn't even notice but power users would eat right up.

sizing is all wrong

Please fix the edges of the flash or the camera or whatever is causing the artifacts on the right and left borders. It's annoying the hell out of me. I couldn't get past those eyesores and a few others the entire time I played your game. Little programming glitches like that combined with your blurry graphics really brought down the enjoyment.

[Nodes 2]

it was alright.

I liked it well enough. the music became a little repetetive and i was going through at a pretty quick pace. Also, was it me or did the blue lazers (the curved ones) act a little arbitrarily? If it was something straight outta photoshop, some bezier curve shit, I could understand, but what was dictating the actual curve? I understand that all levels were beatable, but there should be some consistency with the ways the arcs get formed.

[LeekClock VS ClockCrew]

no way!

I cant' believe the Clock Crew has come this far. The playability was awesome, the sound effects were great, the art wasn't complete crap. It was amazingly fun to play. Congrats on a game well done.

cool

the music was a big part of making this game fun. the art was nice and polished, but the audio really helps set it apart.

[Stand Up Stand Off]

basically a big advertisement

but if it works for you, awesome. it was fun to play for a while. i wish i was familiar with the comedian since it might have been funnier. i just can't picture it.

he does like the c word though, so he can't be all that bad...

There are some clips of chubby on youtube if you're interested? Thanks for your review!

some small programming errors

Seems like if you pass up some ingredients and get to the fries, you can't finish the burger, which is annoying. (It may be intentional?). Anyhow, I was still sitting there waiting for time to run down when everything had cleared the screen and that was really annoying. ...Almost as annoying as the music on Level 2. Very repetetive and in a bad way.

[- Rebound -]

pretty cool

i like how you don't have to be dead-on with the grid to get it to work. i dont' like how you can swivel the fences when the freak-ball is inside a hole, allowing me to cheat my way through certain levels. you might want to fix that bug.

[Trick-or-Treat Adventure!]

averagely annoying

loved the graphics and gameplay. loathed the snarky comments when i tried to touch things. it was all too random and not logical enough. (sure, poke fun when i try to pick up a jar but not the dril. and of the dozens of objects in the room, theres only ONE inspiration for a costume?) Should have started off simple and gotten harder. one day game, you and i will meet again. unti then, BAH!

[PuzzPinball]

good game but...

If you click back to the previous level after you've completed it, and simply run it again, you can get the time bonus applied no matter how long it took you the first time. other than that, quite a comprehensive game.
