[Teddys Excellent Adventure]

" I guess you guys aren't ready for that yet. But your kids are gonna love it. "

[Dead Pixel]

This game had an extra difficulty for me: daltonic.
I deserve an extra medal, right? xD

Well, this is not "OMG THIS IS DA GAME MAN", but it lasted for the time it kept me entertained, só it's ok.

And thanks, thanks and thanks for this not being a screamer.
If you had put a screamer on this, I would hate you till the end of my days.

[Junior vs. Senior]

Well, like other people said, this game surely lacks originality. Games about popping blocks are old, like the "Totem Destroyer" series. It's the same style, but with another skin.

BUT

I guess this deserve some credit because the skin itself is good. I really liked the idea of "papa wants to sleep and kiddo won't let him", I actually found cute the bouncing and the laughing at the end of each stage. Also, the ingame music is awesome and gives the game the aura of innocent fun between son and dad.

Also, it's more levels of the block popping we always liked, so why not?

So, I guess it deserves a chance.
Also, this style of game may be new to some people, and it's a fun and cute way to introduce them.

[Johnny Upgrade]

Nothing much to add, people already said it.
Just passing by to drop you 5 stars.

[Grey Story]

I didn't got it, but still a good game.

I didn't understood the story or the ending.
People already said me when reviewing a story I wrote that, even if I can understand the connecting lines of the story and understanding the whole picture, I didn't was able to put these elements on the story to make it clear for who is reading. I think the same happens in this game. The story may do have a point, but is a little obscure for some players, including me.

By the way, the game is still great, and the music gives a nice atmosphere.

I don't know if is just me, but the game was a little laggy, especially on the jumps or when the character's shadow trail got bigger...

Anyway, I liked it. =)

[Nyan Cat: Lost in Space]

Personal opinion, but...

...I had more fun with this than with the NC Fly.

I liked this game is not just an "avoider", the game play is more active and the many modes that powerups brings makes the game more dynamic.

And the cat giving quotes all the time is a nice detail =)

[Upgrade Complete 2]

Really enjoyed

Awesome like the first one.

Just an opinion: the "BPM" upgrade is NOT FUNNY.
Please note that not everyone likes this kind of joke, seriously.
But I'm not lowering my vote because of this.

And, like the people already said, laz0rz is the key.
Just put laz0rz and laz0rz, and then fire yar laz0rz! Shoop da Whoop! Blaaaaargh!

[Psychosomnium]

I like it...

Well, not all stories need to make sense to be funny, right?

[Super Metroid Quiz]

Good quiz

Could be better, but it's ok. It acomplished it's goal to keep me enternained for a while.

The only drawbacks I found:

- The buttons are to hard to point and click. I had to point the mouse right on the tiny text. A button would be better.
- In the Norfair quiz, the question is "what you need to go deep in Norfair". The deeper levels in Norfair are high heat, and the Varia Suit is required. But the correct answer for this quiz is the Gravity Suit. Also, the same question appears on the beggining of the quiz.
- Too many questions about "how many power ups you collect in that area". We can't recall this from memory so quickly and the quis turns to a simple guessing game. We tend to recall things from the storyline, and that's a good line to questions follow.

I really liked that each quiz plays the BGM of that area, and the Menu and Pics unlocked plays the Restore Room/Save Room BGM.

The idea itself is good and it needs just a few tweaks.
Good job! =)

[Tetris Labs]

The idea is awesome.

Like people said below, it needs just a little more care.
The guy below explained the problem of random pieces, I add also the bad difficult curve. The game starts too easy and jump for too hard without giving me the chance to develop playing skills and get used to the game.

Even so I'm recomending this game to my friends.
Hope you release later a better done version, cause the idea itself is kick ass.
