[Spot the Difference]

A great, fun to play game

Well done that was a damn great game, don't know if it was just me or not but I found the first level the hardest (which seemed a bit weird as it was the first one) and was the only one I didn't complete in time, maybe that should have been a bit further in, another thing which was weird was the fact that on the arty level with the face and the eye i found 6 differences, one of them wasn't a registered difference and nothing happened when I clicked on it but the fact is it definitely was still there(ask me about it on MSN before you reply to this review), a nicer idea(like you said in your authors comments(which I read after thinking this)) would have been to ahve had randomized differences, so that if you did make a mistake and had to start again, you didn't already know where they are(don't know if that's actually possible though without the differences being too obvious), also you said you were going to add sound in a future version, if you mean background music it sounds like a good idea and it would be an improvement, but if you mean sound effects for when you spot a difference it seems like a bad idea as it would be irritating.

Sorry for mentioning so much bad stuff, it probably sounded like I didn't like this game(I did I thought it was great and I'll be voting 4), I was merely just pointing out areas in which this could have been improved.

Anyway great job, keep up the good work.

Stay fizzy.

Thanks again for another useful review.

Mentioning bad stuff is always helpful. The negative points help me far more in improving.

Difficulty - play-testing a game like this is difficult, seeing as once you know where the differences are, you can't really guage the difficulty again.

6th difference - I call shenanigans. Seriously though, next time, I'll use a mask or something to ensure something like that doesn't slip through again.

Music was just an idea. I'd try stuff and see how it seemed. I like music to respond to the game in some way. Otherwise, you might as well just let folk pick their own tunes.

Needed more to it

It was fun, but it was only one level, but then this was only submitted as a test and you never expected it to survive. I got 4 and it said I got 5 lol, weird, I tried again and got all 5 though, don't know what the problem was the first time. I'm looking forward to playing the finished version of this.

Bezman responds:

I'll look into that before releasing the next version. Thanks for letting me know.

Needed more to it

It was a different idea for having to pick different things for a skater to do in order to keep him alive(well I say that) but it needed more to it, perhaps you could ahev picked the option and had to do the tricks yourself or soemthing, some music would also have been a nice addition to this game, as the occasional sound effects just weren't enough, the animation also needed a lot of work as it was very poor and basic.

Completely pointless

You just had to click on a poorly drawn stick figure a few times to get the other stick figure to hit him over the head with a pink stick, it was a poor game and entirely pointless, it could have been better were you able to hit the stick in more areas other than the head and if the two sticks were to be having a pink stick duel or something.

It doesn't work

I opened it up to play it and it came up with this message.

Error - invalid width/height parameters. Please go back and try again.

So I thought hmm I 'll try it on another computer, so I did and it came up with the same message.

You might want to sort this out so that it works.

*Yawns* Yet another challengless clik to kill game

Okay first off there were way too many buttons to press before you got to the actual game and that was really annoying and when you did get to the agme you had a choice between 2 guns, no matter which you chose it was a simple one click on the enemy and you've completed it, you should have at least had it so he's attacking you and you have to hit him so many times to kill him before he can manage to kill you, also at the end you should have had an option to go back to the pick a weapon screen, as to use both you had to go through the whole start again which was annoying. This was a poor game and needed to be worked on in every aspect.

Fun game for a while, I guess it's alright

When I first started this and I saw what the game was about I thought it was going to be a pile of crap but it was actually an alright game, it was fun at first but after a while it did get a bit repetitive. There was a glitch and I couldn't move the vehicle for a while at one point that needed to be sorted out. It would have been better if you were able to dodge or destroy the projectiles that were thrown at you and maybe being able to run the people over would have been a nice touch.
