Dec 20 01:56:00 Disco? Very! Ah, so THERE'S the other Disco?Very! Nice work!
Dec 25 18:16:00 136h 20m Search&Bump I see a lot of potential here. I really like the sonar mechanism. Personally, I don't think having a lot of action (shooting, etc.) would benefit the game. The ambient, meditative hunting feeling works for the game. <br/> <br/>It would help the perception of the sonar a lot if there were an initial "ping" immediately when you hit the key. Then the other pings would sound more like echoes (and it would be easier to estimate the delay).
Dec 31 18:26:00 144h 10m Space Miners Good potential. Fun little explore-and-mine game. Like others, I had the weapon sound looping bug.
Jan 6 16:21:00 141h 55m Get Out Good lord, I suddenly feel bad for all the swearing I've done at VVVVVV and Super Meat Boy! ;) <br/>Excellent first Flash app, but a little too hard for my level of patience at the moment. Nice retro graphics. Not really seeing the theme here.
Jan 6 16:37:00 16m 00s Purgatory Area I like this! The control scheme is novel and really interesting, and fun to master (IMO). Not revolutionary in its interpretation of the theme, but technically fits it with the invisible platforms. Nice minimalistic graphics. Audio is great. <br/> <br/>My only complaint is that I'd like it much better if it were two keys instead of two mouse buttons. It's a two button game (and a fun one), but having the buttons on the mouse doesn't add anything other than making you click on the player before each level. <br/> <br/>For pure fun value, this is my favorite of the games I've rated so far.
Jan 6 17:11:00 34m 00s Where am I? Brilliant! Love the interpretation of the theme. Nicely done. <br/> <br/>My only minor niggle is that I personally found the sound the walls made to be a little bit too intense and grating (for a sound that you're hearing that often). Would have been nice if it were a little more mellow and understated.
Jan 9 18:13:00 73h 02m The secret of Atlantis Am I missing something? I start out falling, land on the sea floor, and there's what appears to be a cave or door. Pressing down in front of the door does nothing, and Z and X do nothing. All I can do is run and swim, while some fish follow me. <br/>Can't really rate this one, because I don't know what it is I'm supposed to do.
Jan 9 18:21:00 8m 00s Or Perish If only more games had status messages letting me know if I'm still playing...
Jan 9 18:50:00 29m 00s The Secret Documents Nice! I like this interpretation of the theme. The visuals are well done, and I love the music.
Jan 9 19:06:00 16m 00s Ancient Mystery III: The lost symbols Very original! I like this. Like others said, I'd get rid of flashing all the solutions at the beginning. I think it's better if you're just discovering them. I also think it'd be better to not pulse the progress bar. Sometimes I'd glance down and think I'd made no progress, when it just happened to be black at that instant.
Jan 10 20:32:00 25h 26m The Legend of Akata Nicely done! Very ambitious project. <br/>One tiny bug: When I die, hitting Enter doesn't restart. I have to kill the app and run again.
Jan 10 20:53:00 21m 00s Batcave I love this game! Pity more people haven't rated it. I'm guessing the initial requirement of having to install love2d put people off, before you had the Windows binary. <br/> <br/>The sonar effect is really nice. Just wish you'd had time to do more with the sound.
Jan 10 21:04:00 11m 00s Anacalypse Pointless, but strangely compelling. Would be nice if first-time discoveries made a different sound (since that's what it's all about). Overall, not bad.
Jan 10 21:06:00 2m 00s Discovery Shuttle Defender Looks like a decent first effort, but the hoops required to run it did put me off.
Jan 11 07:14:00 10h 08m Frolicking Furballs Safari Resort I loves me some chunky voxels! Please tell me you're going to do more with this beautiful rendering tech. <br/> <br/>I'm not sure I want to know what "florlicking" is, though.
