		A Fishing Adventure	I'm once again humbled by your awesomeness ;) All those cool modes, it's like a Zelda game where you get all the good stuff in 5 minutes instead of 50 hours. <br/> <br/>The control inertia and high sensitivity was annoying and it's lacking a bit of polish but the concept is really cool. It's more a fishing theme than islands, though. <br/> <br/>I agree that it's bad that the fishes disappear completely when you drop them but I didn't get stuck.
		They Came From the Ocean	Very cool game. The black smoke monster idea is really good and they look really nice. I like the smooth controls and it feels well polished. Your games continue to inspire me since the first time I participated in a LD.
		Island Hopping	It looks like it could be good but to me that was just frustrating. I really liked the concept and graphics and if I could play like in your video it would have been more enjoyable but the best I managed to do was 7 hops when I got lucky once. <br/> <br/>And if only you could restart the game by pressing jump again, it would be more addictive but pressing return is annoying when you have the left hand on space and the right one on the mouse. (maybe you're a lefty?) <br/> <br/>I think it would have been better with designed levels of increasing difficulty rather than generated content. <br/> <br/>EDIT: Actually the game was more enjoyable after a good night's rest than it was on a Friday evening. Though changing the mouse sensitivity to 3 was necessary to hope not to die right away. Still the easy mode should actually be the insane one. <br/> <br/>EDIT #2: It's actually an awesome game once you really get into it, I just made 70000 points (exactly). It seems making a high score requires some luck though, you need a 4x bonus and a good series of green islands following it.
		Roller-Derby 20XX: Mega Islands of Awesome	Nice retro graphics style. I don't see the theme in your game.
		L'il Guys and the Floating Islands	Cool lemmings type of game. The graphics are really tiny but nice. The levels were rather easy but fun. <br/> <br/>I didn't see the point of editing while the l'il guys are moving since you lose very quickly when one or two die and you can complete all the levels without that. <br/> <br/>It's annoying that when you restart a level, you have to replace everything again. <br/> <br/>It would need some more levels and types of blocks but overall it's a cool and well made game.
		Turtle Ferry	Nice! The concept has worked really well. The animal models are awesome and the graphical style is original.
		Infinite Deadly Islands Of Terror	Nice little game with cute pixelly graphics. It's a bit too random though, it feels like once you have seen the first island you have seen them all, and the luck factor of where the things spawn is important.
		Savory Sea Hoss	Fun graphics! The gameplay failed to really capture my attention as it seemed the food was thrown rather randomly but maybe I failed to notice something.
		No^Man	mmm, I got the first puzzle after that i wasn't sure what I was supposed to do. It's possible to move by using the words on the character but is that a bug or a feature? Also the game doesn't restart when you die. <br/>I liked the original look of the game.
		Artillery Isles	Nice little game, works well but gets a bit repetitive after a while.
		SkyLands	Nice music but restarting the level made the game no fun :/
		Artifact Hunt	I like the simplicity of it and the music goes very well with that to create the ambiance. But it's a bit empty.
		Tango	Probably unfinished. An attempt at a Carrier Command type of game, maybe?
		AlienIslands	Nice little alien guy!
		Simcano	It took a while to understand but once I found out how to make money it was fun. Nice game!
