Aug 27 07:27:00 EVOLVE, YOU FUCKER! There are times like these where I'm glad bAtari BASIC exists.
Aug 29 09:28:00 50h 01m Species OK, first time I can be bothered rating something this LD. I don't know why, but there we go. <br/> <br/>I'm going to rank this highly for graphics, primarily because you actually bothered to put lighting in. More games need that sort of lighting :/ <br/> <br/>Another place this ranks highly is mood. It's bad enough without sound D: D: D: <br/> <br/>Which brings me to sound. I eventually turned it on... Basically, it works. It'd be nice to have a bit more variety, though. <br/> <br/>I wouldn't exactly call this game "fun"; I'd rather call it "interesting". But seeing as there's no "interesting" category, I'm going to rank it in the "fun" category... Virtually no replay value, but definitely kept me playing to the end. <br/> <br/>Innovation... I would say that the level design was actually quite boring. I usually suck at ranking this category, though. <br/> <br/>Didn't spot much in the way of humour, so marking it N/A. <br/> <br/>If there were a technical score, I would probably give it 4 stars: it seems to run in suprisingly smooth bursts on a single-core IA32 on Firefox 13, but the physics just feel wrong. <br/> <br/>Definitely worth playing once.
Sep 16 22:06:00 444h 38m Kitten Evolution LOL SHAREWARE MESSAGE <br/> <br/>Anyhow... <br/> <br/>Seeing as virtually nobody can be bothered rating this because they're all a bunch of pussies (no pun intented) who don't know how to use DOSBox, I have to rate this. <br/> <br/>Innovationwise... it's not a stock standard genre so this gets something. <br/> <br/>Fun... I played it to the end. <br/> <br/>Theme... yes, you evolve! <br/> <br/>Graphics... I suggest learning how to make doors. Or just use Kevedit's object library for that. With that said, this was 100% yellow-border free and wasn't too grating on the eyes so you get more than 1 star. <br/> <br/>Audio gets a 1 star for being all the default ZZT sounds. Seriously, these are horrible. (Personally if I did an LD in ZZT I'd probably get this too.) <br/> <br/>Humourous. Not amazingly, but it was alright. <br/> <br/>Mood was pretty flat. <br/> <br/>Overall, not completely crap.
Sep 16 22:24:00 18m 00s On the Origin the Species the Game Out of all the platforms you could pick to screw your chances up of anyone actually being able to PLAY your game, this'd have to take the cake. <br/> <br/>Someone managed to make an Atari 2600 game. As it turns out, there are quite a few emulators for that, so just about anyone can actually play it despite not having the real hardware. <br/> <br/>Android might be a better bet. At least they have an emulator for not-Mac. <br/> <br/>All I can do is ponder how great this game would be if it were possible for me to play it. Because quite frankly, it's not.
