['DinoMelt']

I love the game with its cute mix of dinosaurs and clay. How did you even come up with that idea? I would have liked a few more shortcuts, and it would be cool to show the clay balls and clay fruits that you've already found on the map but can't yet access. Super fun graphics, very good game play, and I love that end part that tells the silly names of the clay dinosaur enemies. The one serious issue I have is that none of the medals seem to be working for me.

Butzbo responds:

It's great to know about the ending characters bit!, many old games did that, and it was fun to come up with bizarre/silly names for all of those creatures.
The idea in particular came from... a blend of isolated characters that came when I was gathering elements for a simple platformer, I'll make a more elaborated post about that in particular in the upcoming weeks showing the early stages of the game.
(also, medals have been strangely inconsistent to implement, there are more variations to test, though)

Thanks a lot for your comments! feedback will be very useful for upcoming versions of the game.

[Anti Chess]

The counter-intuitive nature of such a game makes it harder for the people who play standard chess to adjust. It's a fun game to play, but the harder difficulties could be more challenging.

devilsgarage responds:

yeah, a real mind bender for traditional players - thanks for playing!
You should download the iOS version and challenge a friend if it's getting a bit easy beating the AI - cheers

Great game, but I messed up badly. I fooled around with the controls and made it so two of them did the same thing and now the up button isn't working. 0_o'

that is a horrible oversight on my part. You may have to delete your cookies or try a different browser.

I think it's a simple, but enjoyable game with an adorable monster eating people. However, it could be improved with some power ups like fire-breath, shield, or armor. Or maybe adding some passive regeneration, or other enemies. There could be some that slow you down, or poison you, or just move faster, etc. All in all, it's a pretty fun way to pass the time.

PixlWalkr responds:

Thank you for your feedback! I'll surely add those when I turn it into a full game :)

[It Needs Care]

Oh my gawwwsh!!! It's so adorable I nearly cried when it died. And my heart broke at the end...

Just like raising real children, you feed them, play with them, and love them. You clean up copious amounts of bodily waste and take care of them when they're sick.
Then they grow up into ungrateful teenagers hell-bent on dominating the world...

Wolod responds:

You're totally right! That's the cruel truth of life XD

[GRAND ADVENTURE!]

This is quite an interesting game! I love how you combined the retro games of the past with newer ideas, it keeps the story refreshing. I like the horror element too. Playing the game, you always feel like you're missing something, like you're forgetting an important detail. It all just adds to the subtly disturbing mood: very creepy, yet understated too. I bet you put a lot of thought into it, good work!

Emptygoddess responds:

Thanks.

Fun game, but if there were medals it would be more fun. Level 13 is frustrating, though. After like 20 failed attempts, I checked the walkthrough. I was doing it right, but the walkthrough gave you a whole minute instead of 25 seconds. It ended with 31 seconds left, meaning the person doing the walkthrough took 29 seconds - 4 seconds longer than allowed in this one. Even if you extended the time by 5 seconds, it would still be a decently hard level. Anyways, I like the cute little purple demon, it's adorable how it seems to nod its head to the music ^-^

Hi thx for the review. I've added 5 secs to level 13 - I agree it was too difficult. Also, medals have now been added.. and a scoreboard
