| Dec 16 09:38:00 | Jameson The Pilot | Good looking and well executed Elite-like game. Impressive for 48hrs. I'm not sure that only having one life added anything to the game, but then again, I still kept playing it more after each time I died to see how far I could progress. | |

On my first playthrough I accidentally wandered into the common room immediately after finding the transformer (since the rooms were all identical from the outside) and had to make the decision before I had a chance to talk to anyone. Still, it was good enough to make me want to play again to see the rest of the dialogue that I missed. |

Apart from the somewhat vague hint about the blue block on the first level (maybe there also should have been another level before with nothing but white blocks and the super-obvious solution of dragging one into line, to teach the win condition before teaching more complicated elements like the blue block), it generally did a decent job of teaching the player as they go (i.e. the game is its own tutorial; Portal is another great example of this). <br/> <br/>Sometimes it felt like some of the starting arrangements were misleading. E.g. on level 5, I kept trying to come up with a solution that involved placing both blue blocks in the same corner since that's where most of the blocks started out. One arrangement I tried almost solved the level but was off by a block or two, so I kept trying different ones and ended up accidentally making some crazy self-moving automata that somehow ate the red block (I then felt like an idiot when I realized how simple the actual solution was). Maybe that's just me though. |
