"Mega Drive-esque Fun"

submission: Glass Fish Rhythm

date: October 19, 2009

This is a sweet little game. It reminds me of the Mega Drive/Genesis games I used to play as a kid. The pixel art and chiptune music are most likely the reasons for that. I think there should be more Flash games that look and feel like this. However there are some huge flaws that really damage the gameplay. For instance when I get to the Wizard if I die I have to beat the whole of level three once again. Which is just poor game design. At least let me restart from where I last laid my egg. What is the point in implementing a custom check point system if the user can not use it to their advantage? Also perhaps you can tell me why the last boss isn't rhythm based? Did you simply get lazy or did you purposely go against your aesthetic? Perhaps that's why he is a Wizard and not a sea creature?

To anyone that might be struggling my protip: Lay your eggs just beneath the eggs that you pick up. Also the bit with the bats that everybody seems to be struggling with. After the second wave of bats finish spawning just lay another egg.

Hope the developers and the users found this useful.

"Can not unwatch."

submission: Johnny McChimp

date: October 14, 2009

This short is rather odd. It makes you feel that fuzzy empty space in your brain. But what can I say? I like it. I'm not even sure what is happening at the arse end of the toon. I'm not sure if that is your fault or mine. However I simply enjoyed the surreal ride.

Will this end up as a series or will you be making anything else - you're a talented artist and it'd be a shame to see someone of your level going to waste.

"Despite voting 0..."

...I think this is a wonderful parody of the half arsed University submissions we have been getting today. I enjoyed it very much. I look forward to seeing some more of your output.

"It is ok."

submission: Chloe in the dark

I don't suggest playing the music from the preloader. This is a sweet little Flash though. It reminds me of David Firth's Scribbler. Was he your inspiration?

Score: 1

date: October 12, 2009

"An instant classic."

submission: Miami Shark

date: October 7, 2009

Typical Mausland game. So intense, so detailed, so fucking addictive. You've been one of my favourite flash artists for years and you never fail to let me down. All I can say is keep doing what you do best.

"The artwork is gorgeous!"

submission: Sista Gunner Update

date: October 1, 2009

This is absolutely splendid to look at. That is why I have given you a seven. However the game itself is a derivative flash point and click shooter that I've seen so many variations of over the years. I think you have a lot of talent but this sort of game does not suit your style. I was expecting something like a side scrolling shooter in a similar vein to Mega Man.

My criticism is to up the ante in your projects because you show bundles of promise.

Score: 3

"So very flawed."

submission: Blast Off

date: October 1, 2009

This game is currently very flawed. The long waiting time until death, the fact that you can not submit your score, the lack of obstacles. All these issues need addressing. This is currently the bare bones of a game. Having to wait ten minutes (yes ten minutes!) to find out I can't submit my score was a heart breaker.

Take care and best regards;

"Right..."

You can tell a stoner made this. Your motor skills going? Your mind slipping? Good.

"I don't really like Dress-Up Games..."

submission: Sonic Girls Dress Up

date: September 24, 2009

...however this one particularly out. It's all well drawn and it is very obvious that some effort went in to making this. I haven't played a Sonic game since Sonic Rush for the Nintendo DS, so some of these characters are unfamiliar to me.

How about implementing some male characters with a different wardrobe? I'm sure you know how.
