Whoohoo! Beat it! Became easier when I decided to have orange/blue operate with left/right hands. Nice level design, nifty movement mechanic (I'm a sucker for gravity swing platformers, so I was delighted by the final challenge :))
Hmm, I must be missing something relative to the other reviewers, but I couldn't quite figure things out. I plant the seeds, and eventually they turn into more seeds...I plant those..and by the time they're heading to seed my cats have starved. I don't see any cows :(
Very nice! Shockingly polished, nice execution of a MP platformer.
Well done! Agree with previous reviewers that sound would have been a big plus, and sure, the art is a sketch, but I was engaged enough to finish the challenging final level, and had some frustrating fun trying over and over :)
Great job giving the player an increasing sense of mastery; the platformer polish (movement, physics) were sufficiently good that I never felt that I died unfairly. On the same note, good level design: the final level was hard but obviously possible to complete, so I stuck with it, even after dying on that dang last little bump right before the door.
Wow, very cool idea, and well executed. Just need more people around to play :)
Nice music! Otherwise similar feedback to BoxedMeatRevolution.
Nice graphics, well-suited audio, very polished game. One bit of feedback: there were a few 'player is permanently stuck' spots where it wasn't obvious that this was the intention: just "oh, whoops, accumulated a little too much, now I can't quite make it up the hill."
Good job finishing a game! We had a quick multiplayer session and it was a little difficult at first to figure out who was on top and who was on bottom. Also agree about 'button spam for victory' - just a tad more strategy would make it a much more engaging game. Cool idea!
Not a windows programmer, so I don't have much feedback on the source structure, but this is a really fun and creative puzzle layout for programmers :)
It's a fine line between "fun puzzle" and "this feels a little too much like debugging code at $work", and you certainly landed on the "fun" side. If you explore this idea further, I'd see if you can improve the parser so that a wider range of solutions will work: my silly approaches like 11 - -11 - -1 - -1 - -1 - -1 - -1 for 27 made it think I was missing a semicolon. Good work!
I played several rounds until I finally good enough to grow my tree all the way. Nice work!
Tough game! I like the flashy explosions :)
@Ampera: thanks for trying it out! Every channel except the government has at least one, most have more. That said, you might have to listen very carefully to some of them...
One minor suggestion: put the 'submit' button in auto-focus, so the player can type commands and then 'enter'. I had to keep clicking 'submit' and that distracted from the game. Good job making a game! Writing is hard, but keep at it!
Cool game! The platformer bit of the tutorial took me longer than you probably intended (echoing the 'slightly float-y/disorienting physics comments from others) but the mechanic is very cool :) I had lots of fun building up my gun in goofy ways, and seeing the bullets pulse through my contraption made me chuckle. Good work!
This is wonderful! :D
Super fun and engaging. Delightful game.
I think it might be broken -- the camera was falling into infinity as soon as the game started.
This is a cool idea, but I think the key to turning it into more of a game is a little more structure. Maybe more of a treasure hunt? Perhaps get some topics of interest from the player, do some quick link analysis on wiki articles and see if people can gather X articles about Y? Or perhaps "jump to random wiki page, discover why <insert some fact loosely associated with that wiki page topic>"
Keep it up!
Wow, that's some polish! The 4th puzzle was, as promised, very tricky :)
Hey, nice work! I really like the idea of a resource-management "runner". I was cruising along, taking on cargo...then "aagh where's a gas station! not oil, gas!" ... and then I ran out. 115km. Or miles :D
This looks funny, but I wasn't able to run it on Windows 7: there was no executable in the zip.
This is awesome! Super fun. I'm going to play it with a coworker tomorrow over lunch.

This is great! Loads of hilarious dialogue, some nice surprises. Managed to find all of the endings :D
I think my main feedback is that some of the best jokes are buried pretty deeply in the dialogue trees; this adds to their effectiveness, of course, but it means that lots of folks will miss them, which is a shame.
The writing is solid. Some delightful jokes, good character differentiation. There isn't a lot of depth or character investment/development, but what can you expect, it's a compo game :D
Pretty good voice work, the different characters have nicely distinct (and most importantly, internally consistent) sounds. Took me a moment to understand everyone, but this didn't impede my enjoyment of the game. Audio came out clean. Subtitles were a fantastic touch, and really helped replayability (skipping dialogue I've heard before after scanning the text - yes please).
Music was pleasant and effective, avoided becoming annoying despite all the time I spent listening to it (I played the game N+2 times, where N is number of endings).
Despite the "small" total amount of total audio dialogue, it felt like there was a lot to see/hear/explore. I think this game does a better job of accomplishing the feeling of "impossible amounts of audio content" than MInfo, given how the pieces are parceled out to the player.
On a technical level the code is remarkably clean, and I encountered no bugs at all.
Success! Onwards and upwards!
