[The Power]

VVVVVV'esque

[Medusa - Wrath of the queen]

I hate how slow you move
I hate how far and unpredictably the gems bounce when you destroy stuff
I hated how in level one I'm sitting there freezing the guy and having no clue why that won't just end the level. No clue I have to pick them up, with the same key mind you, and then throw them into a wall.

Good art, sound, music, and the voice was good.

[Sherlock Holmes 2]

I had to subtract half a star for this:

In Author Comments you said "police is" when you should have said "police are."

"is" is the third person singular present of "be"
"are" is the plural present of "be"

Police is a plural noun referring to a group of policemen and women.

You might modify the clause to "The policeman is convinced Charles Williams has murdered Jimmy Johnston,"

But I am going to assume you intended on referring to the plural "police" in which case the clause should have read:

"The police are convinced Charles Williams has murdered Jimmy Johnston,"

I used these resources:

DeathTiger0 responds:

Hi sharpova,

Thank you for your comment, this is has been fixed.
Of course you are right and even in the game we used the correct plural form: "There's no time, the police are after me."

Thanks again!

[No One Was Here]

nice. has a shadow of the colossus/titan souls feel, due to the music and boss

it needs to be made far more clear that you jump higher when you're jumping along with your past self.

that wasn't logical and didn't fit with the mechanics of the game.

jeremyaburns responds:

Thanks for the feedback! The controls in reverse should be exactly the same as going forwards. Your time-reversed self can "jump" really high if you fall really far though.

[Drink Beer, Neglect Family]

wife wants therapy
daughter dating a black guy - score 3/5
son dropped out of college

esayitch responds:

It doesn't say black guy O.o, it says gang member, I never thought of it being a black guy necessarily.

[Ultimo Soccer UDC]

I have an issue where when I hold down the down arrow it scrolls down on this webpage.

It looks like it would be fun though.

UltimoGames responds:

I heard this before, will do it right in my next game, you can also use WASD, thx for the comments!

[Tim_]

really cool. though the boss fight was way way too hard. hardest boss battle i've ever done and i've played a lot of games including dark souls 1/2 + 3x dlc

KilianoLopes responds:

xD The boss is inspirated in Sigma of Megaman X. Oh gosh i realy love this game

[Potatoman Seeks The Troof]

limited lives = bad

[Cube Escape: The Lake]

some sound effects were too loud.

at one point you had a corpse scream. during the yawn this elicited i reflected on how sound is misused by amateurs trying to elicit responses that they failed to do so in a genuine fashion.

but then... oh yes there was more. then you forced us to know something from another game to solve a puzzle. i spent 15 minutes trying to figure it out and finally had to look up wtf was going on. i found out you made it so only someone who had played this other game would be able to solve it.

at this point you lost more than my interest.
