[Perfectus Volatus]

Birds Eye View Racing Rocks!

Most games of these styles are to easy, but this was a challenge for 3 main reasons.

The first being the timer, you give the player barely enough time... which makes the game more intense and challenging.

The second being (and my favourite) that you can't just bounce of walls. Which is a good change, you can no longer bounce from wall to wall at 150mph in a Lambourghini Diablo without getting any damage. With the timer, this makes it far more interesting. The use of life is just great!

The last challenge is the track extras (Spills, barrels, blinding lights), you're now worrying about time and not crashing while avoiding these little tricks.

This game would be like an orgasm if it had online capabilities.

The game was set out so well, as mentioned. The visuals were great (Great cars by the way) and the animation was very fluent. Mixed with a brilliant soundtrack made this an excellent racing game.

So enjoy my 5, my request to have this in the 'Car Games' section.

EyeFusion responds:

Thank you so much for the compliment, I'm really glad you like the game =)

Good art

What I really enjoyed about this was the art. Alot of hand drawn feel to it which really got me going. The game was simplistic (I loved the body pick up move), but still fun. A bit tough for a one hit per kill though.

Overall, great art and an easy to use system... but something I could only kill a couple of minutes on.

Bezman responds:

Thanks for the review!

Glad you enjoyed some aspects and hopefully this year's version will keep you more engrossed!

Addictive

That was quite nice, luckily my scrabble skills came into play. The game was fun and addictive (in a good way atleast), a fine way to test up on my geography :)

The game was set out very well, very easy to use. The design of the game looked great, very slick and interesting. The helping aids were well set out to not give it away entirely which was very well planned.

The only problem I saw with this game was the lack of a prize or something. It was just doing it for the points, now though there was a high score system (which was good), it needed more of an objective.

But anyway, great game!

LuckyLollipopLad responds:

If you beat my highscore of 234 points, I'll give you a mystery prize.

Just send me a high-quality screenshot for your prize.

Glad you liked everything.

Thanks for the review!

[Runescape Simulator]

It was decent

Sure it was fun humor wise, but visuals? Animations, were just plain and overused.

meh. i got lazy

[Rapid Reaction Master]

Very well made

There's alot of, test a gun style games... normally just a picture of a gun with a vague idea of how a gun works. But this was perfect.

The gun techniques, reactions and set up was perfect. The gameplay was unreal and the many options made me orgasm harder than before.

Great job.

tomylee responds:

Haha! im glad you liked it :) lol

[Happy Cyclopsland]

Fun game

This was quite good. Humerous and brilliantly smooth. The controls were very nice, so easy to master. The gameplay, though reptitive gave me a bunch of laughs... The sound effects... awesome.

Anyway, good job and keep the good work up!

BasV responds:

Thank you! I've had complaint about the controls too, but it seems you like them the way I like them ;)

[Rage 2!]

Damn good game

I loved this. The game was so interactive, so many choices and so much to do. For that reason it made the game stand out in comparison to most other games on this site which you get about 5 minutes of enjoyment out of.

The graphics were nice, simple... but thats all that was needed. The animating was smooth from all angles. Though the style has been done before, the extra features you threw into this one... with all the modes etc made it somewhat unique and more enjoyable.

The sound was great, so many fast paced love to kill songs... Overall it was a great game, and even though were not even half way through this month, I got a feeling its going to be one of the best of.

Good job, your work paid off!

Cosmoseth responds:

:D

[Obversity]

Unique Game!

This was quite fun, such a great concept and so well brought through with a nice enviorment for the game.

The graphics were good, sound was nice and it was easy to pick up on. Good job!

PsychoGoldfish responds:

that's what I like to hear.... that and "free beer".

[Halo for Windows]

Quite obviously not a game

Its more than easy to detect these sort of pop-up penis things. It doesnt matter how good you are, if you spend 1 and a half years on anything... its going to get better than a 1.6 score.

Be more productive with your time.

Sorry, no english

[Main Menu Tut (Remade)]

Useful

This was quite a decent tutorial. The only real problem would be its 100% devotion to one subject, which is kind of small.

But for what it aims to look at, its good.

RPGBandit responds:

Thanks for the kind review, and I hope to make more tutorials later, and I will definitely focus on more than one topic. Thanks for the advice!
