Aug 26 21:52:00 Evolution VS 1000 kittens Quite fun, although I never worked out where the dinosaurs hitbox was. I approve of the use of 1000 kittens :)
Aug 27 11:08:00 13h 16m Move the Cheese Quite an interesting mechanic, although I tended to rotate more or less randomly until there was an obvious way to win. Some levels were much harder than others.
Aug 27 11:19:00 11m 00s The Horrifying and Viciously Aggresive Though Strangely Susceptible To Evolution Monsters From Some Mysterious Random Tomb A bit buggy (some doors lead to the wrong place, after being hit my health was 101) but quite fun, although after buying many swords (another bug?) after the first dungeon I could kill everything in 1 shot.
Aug 27 11:29:00 10m 00s Evolution I liked the audio. The concept is good but I'm pretty sure being able to drop any number more than 4 isn't helpful. Also if you drop them in the wrong order the area finding breaks a bit.
Aug 27 11:37:00 8m 00s GeometryEvo Some good ideas, I liked the changing mechanic for each level and the humour was somewhat humorous. The music did get a bit repetitive.
Aug 27 12:07:00 30m 00s Badass Graphics and audio were great, gameplay was a bit basic but still fun. Loved the humour, survival of the most badass!
Aug 27 12:11:00 4m 00s Cellulae I found that if you get big enough you're bigger than everything at the start of the next wave, it becomes a bit easy after that. The music worked well, fitted the mood of the game. It would have been nice to see some kind of a twist on the osmos mechanic.
Aug 27 12:26:00 15m 00s Fend off waves of zombies with your evolving gun DELUXE The bullet effect is nice, rest of the graphics are a bit too minimal for me. Gameplay is ok, it would have been nice to be able to force the next wave. Also there seemed very little point in being able to aim up and down at all, maybe some platforms to stand on would be an improvement?
Aug 27 12:39:00 13m 00s Battle Evolved Loved it but was terrible at it (got up to the flying one after many attempts), graphics, sound and gameplay were all great. Controls seemed a bit off, I think z, x and c would have made more sense to me.
Aug 27 12:55:00 16m 00s Small Worm A nice twist on the standard snake game, fitted quite well with the theme and I liked having a choice of how to evolve my worm.
Aug 27 14:29:00 1h 34m Cubevo I just spent far too long playing that, it took me a while to figure out, and even then a couple of attempts. The concept is good, and I really like the way the music comes in. My main criticism is that the enemy takes too many hits to kill, the first time I got up to him I gave up hitting him because it didn't seem to do anything.
Aug 27 15:29:00 1h 00m terravolve Interesting idea but for me it became a matter of selecting a continent and holding A and S simultaneously until they had max health and research, then moving onto the next and repeating.
Aug 27 15:49:00 20m 00s Evo Fight I liked the graphics, shadows were a nice touch. I played the computer and couldn't resist spamming the energy ball a bit, but the evolution aspect was a good addition.
Aug 27 16:23:00 34m 00s Natural Selection: breeding by God Good use of the theme, although I ended up systematically trying every possible permutation to find the last few in a level (not particularly fun). Stopped near the end of the Jurassic level.
Aug 27 16:31:00 8m 00s The World of Worlds I'm awful at strategy games and this was no exception, but it was a unique approach to the genre which I liked.
Aug 27 16:35:00 4m 00s Class Warfare I liked it, especially the ending.
Aug 27 16:41:00 6m 00s A New Kind of Man I liked the idea, with a bit more content it could be really good.
Aug 27 18:52:00 2h 11m Ikaruga Devolved The first time I played I didn't read the description and only used the arrow keys (I thought you were just forced into 3 lanes). I think I might have even got a better score like that than when I was trying to change colour and heal myself. Some music would have been nice, but other than that I really enjoyed it.
Aug 27 18:56:00 4m 00s Breaking Through The Deepest Nightmare Evolution Really nice graphics. Although the flashing lightening isn't pleasant, it does create quite a good mechanic.
Aug 27 19:10:00 14m 00s Dr. Helix I really liked it. Fun use of the theme and a good art style.
Aug 27 21:52:00 2h 42m The Kittelutioning I love this game! Definitely the best use of the theme I've seen so far. I'd like to know how the genetic trait changes are controlled when you click on a cat, but it would be too easy if it wasn't vague.
