bobo72a 2013-04-28 23:19

Got D- my first try :D

The comments he made were funny.

kristiangibson 2013-04-29 06:56

Hahha, love it :')

yozz 2013-04-29 10:31

Waiting for this game since the first day. Cool!

albertosm 2013-04-29 10:32

Is it wrong that I like the title screen better than the actual game? haha!
Love the comments from Brian...hilarious!

diamonde 2013-04-29 10:49

This is hilarious! D- was the best I could do, but I'm happy with it :)

ndssia 2013-04-29 10:59

E-!

My art is bad, and I should feel bad.

Very cool :)

anjack 2013-04-29 11:31

The perfect game for the self-hating perfectionist!

Great voice-acting! ;)

aquilicoco 2013-04-29 14:52

I love the the graphics and comments :)

donan 2013-04-29 14:53

Hahahaha, one of my favourite games so far. Really cool idea.

cmaster 2013-04-29 14:55

Hah!

Pretty entertaining and bang on theme.

D- isn't too hard to get if you well, make a reasonable stab at recreating a painting.

tau7153 2013-04-29 14:56

Good idea, but I kept failing. :)

andrewshouldice 2013-04-29 15:05

Brian is my favourite art teacher.

wallmasterr 2013-04-29 18:19

Nice animations and audio

mushbuh 2013-04-29 20:05

Nice, funny music

kimau 2013-04-29 20:07

Comments are brilliant love the tone and humour of the piece.

bleating 2013-04-29 20:07

Easily my favorite game so far

dualtagh 2013-04-29 20:12

Haha! brilliant!

graytest 2013-04-29 20:13

I love it!

puttputt 2013-04-29 23:38

This is so good. I love it!

cahman 2013-04-30 12:39

Hilarious! Further confirms I have no understanding of minimalist art.

mase 2013-04-30 20:05

Nice voice-overs. I felt a rush of hope when Brian said "hrmm interesting."

miharbi 2013-05-01 09:55

His comments while you're making the art made me laugh my ass off.

djts 2013-05-01 10:24

I like the voice-overs! Couldn't get higher than E-, though. Solid work!

minionstudios 2013-05-01 15:21

Ha! Such a crazy game! love the fictional history of the critic.

beerman 2013-05-01 21:47

Hilarious :D The game's fun, but my favourite part was Brian's funky dance moves on the title screen.

dustystylus 2013-05-01 22:02

Thanks for your comments everyone! I wish I could've added more to make the game more of a 'game'. :)

The general rules to please Brian are:
- Ratio of Horizontal to Vertical ~ 1:1
- More than 1 color, but less than 7

And yes, those are totally arbitrary decisions on my part, with no minimalistic artistic background at all I'm sorry to say!

nicosaraintaris 2013-05-02 14:38

Wow, so many minimalistic masterpieces... Nice game!

thecze 2013-05-02 20:44

Apparently I suck at art. Great sounds!

smilingcat 2013-05-02 20:46

Pretty fun, great use of the theme. Brian was a hoot, with all of his comments.

davidemo89 2013-05-02 20:46

F-??!??! SHUT UP BRIAN!

btw, it was fun =D great idea

matthias_zarzecki 2013-05-02 21:22

Ha, this is great! Love the voice-over

ddionisio 2013-05-03 04:08

Awesome intro, made me laugh! Great animation and humor!

I failed 3 times, screw minimalistic art!

jlauener 2013-05-03 08:07

LOL

:)

Really good entry.

Just read the description, Yaaay I got a D!

euwaku 2013-05-06 05:52

Brian is a jerk!! Loved that game :)

vaelzan 2013-05-08 00:34

Fantastically hilarious. Nothing to say other than that.

atraxgames 2013-05-08 21:27

Animation and music reminds me Day of the Tentacle, this is very funny!

catman 2013-05-14 10:24

Fun entry and nice animation!

pansapiens 2013-05-20 10:45

Nice work on the voice acting!
