Awkward controls. I would prefer moving with the classic arrow keys or the usual "A and D". Presentation isn't that bad.

This got potential to be a really addicting game.

hotfooted responds:

I considered [A] and [D] as controls but having to traverse the columns one by one is too slow once the bpm reaches above ~110. I also implemented [1][2][3][4][SPACE] though never documented them. I will add [A][S][D][F][SPACE] in later.

Thanks for the feedback.

[Madness: The Escape (Very Short Preview)]

Uh, no. Avoid doing skits like this, while it's impressive to see a game like his but avoid uploading unfinished stuff to the portal.

If you really wanted feedback, goto the Game Dev forums.

[That is Not Dead]

Don't upload your test builds here. Goto the Game Dev forums for that.

Looks incomplete. It doesn't look very impressive.

[Ascension - Engine Demo]

Transitions between screens takes too long to move.

Um, why do would you need to collect cookies if you're submitting this game to a site like this? We're not that type of site man.

A pretty fun game with Game Boy-ish inspired graphics! The inspiration from X-Gen's Motherload shows.

While I wish the frame rate could be better (I'm assuming it's due to my own hardware), it plays beautifully as what a retro game should be. My only gripe that it seems to be such a endless grind trying to build up cash just for fuel refills to reduce it to zero.

Regardless of that, medal support would really be great for the game here.

The deeper you dig the more valuable the minerals you mine are but the riskier it is. Try finding a few Crystal type minerals and coming back up, you'll find that your delving becomes very profitable.

[Pico's Quick Pixel Adventure]

A simple but quirky game!

Shame you can't stomp on the bunny-things.

Cyberdevil responds:

Well then it wouldn't be a challenge would it. ;) Thank ya!

[Pixel Goodies]

"I'll try to fix it as soon as possible"
This should've been addressed BEFORE you submit the game.

It's a quirky game, however most buttons appear unresponsive when pressed, i.e. exit game through ESC. NG Medal support would keep player invested in the game. Only grief I got is the screen is FAR too huge it should be.

EragothGames responds:

Agreed, thank you for your input!

[ZOMBIE FIGHTER]

Awkward controls, basic design.
I dunno how I feel about "releasing" the button to shoot. That's not how guns work..
