[Days of The Dead]

Solid effort

I loved the game, and the concept, as i am a fan of this style, however there are too many complaints in its actuality to let the concept stand alone.

Zombies that are at the bottom of your screen are un-hittable once they reach your wall and you cant aim down

The aiming is off as many people said, but then again this isnt hard to correct for and sortof made the game more challangingly fun, so i dont know if it was intentional.

The game feels too short, or maybe the levelign and cash is too hard. i unlocked a new item the level i beat the game, and will never know what it is. which makes me sad.

[Quick Sand]

Nearly Perfect

Really great game, challenging but not impossible.

Only two complaints:

Firstly, it is a bit too short. but that can be said of anything and if it gets too long then it is boring, so this is a minor issue and for some might not be one at all.

Secondly, there needs to be some form of a scoring system. There is virtually no motivation for finishing a level with challenging jumps that you clearly laid out with the walls when standing still and letting the sand raise you has the exact same effect. If there was a timed motivator then people would be encouraged to try to run through the challenging path for speed.
Another alternative though I don't know how easy this would be to actually program / impliment would be having your character actually sink in the sand over time.. or some similar device to make the sand somewhat of a threat. The game being called quick sand in my mind made the sand sound dangerous

I know this review is long but look! 9 of 10. I don't mean to harp on my small issues because it was a fantastic game.

I-smel responds:

Yeah, there's supposed to a Speed Run mode where you can only win if you don't screw up as much- I'm tryina fix that now.
Also I'm adding a third mode where the sand is lava and you can't touch it; so that means you can't ride it to the top of the levels and you can't miss jumps.

Thanks though!

[Larry And The Gnomes]

Amazing

Very thorough game. The rage was done really well and helps keep from getting stun locked knocked down, which is my pet peeve in most games like these.

One bug I found though, as for collecting the 8 swords. If you just go to one area that has a sword, pick it up and then exit out the game and continue, a new (different) secret sword will re spawn in its place when you continue.

Other than that a perfect and balanced game all around
