Can I Have A Copy of the Recipe?

This was not only wholesome, but damn was it hilarious. The speed of the animation and comedic timing just escalating bit by bit. I was never sure where it was going to go. This worm I find endearing yet terrifying at the same time. Anything to get to the means of what he wants. The sound effects were perfect, and I love the use of the Wilhelm Scream anytime I hear it. This was just amazing from beginning to end. Absolutely love it!

Why Did This Make Me Cry?

Oh good lord. I mean just damn. Let's start from the top. The artwork in this is simplistic, I think though it fits the overall theme. A bit meta in a way. The animation is pretty good. The music choice being Aeris' theme I thought was a strange choice at first, it just worked with that build up though. Something meant to be sad turned triumphant. The simple story here is just man. I remember being front paged for my writing. I had the same feeling. Although I never pictured the artwork being put on a fridge. That was just a beautiful analogy. It makes me breakout into tears every time I watch this. Bravo man.

Thanks for the review. Yeah, this thing is far from perfect. Put it together while working my last job. But I'm glad at the very least it was able to resonate with a few people.

Return of the Elephant

I have missed these games from you. Seriously, seeing how much you have done with a small blue elephant. This game did not disappoint. I loved every aspect of this game. The backgrounds were incredible and the rave bars were hypnotic, slowly bringing you in and then assaulting your eyes, in a good way though. I love the music choice from the Audio Portal, and I hated every time I ruined the rave because it stopped the music. The story attributed to a lot of my deaths because I wanted to read the text while trying to dodge the bars at the same time. I thought it was splendid. Everything about this game is absolutely perfect.

Orange You Glad I Didn't Say Banana?

I saw this game on the Frontpage and thought it looked interesting. Gave it a click. While browsing the menu, I found that the little "oooh" sound effect was really nice on the ears. Even better after completing each level. The goal of the game is to make the screen orange. Simple enough. At times though, some levels just mystified me, because said objective was not the case. The first level with the traffic cones had me stumped for a while, until I was just trying everything, eventually I got it, not by solving a puzzle, just lucky. The basketball between the two traffic cones I didn't get either. The music is nice and the sound effects in the game itself are par for the course, besides the little "oooh". It's a neat concept for sure, just some of the levels I didn't get.

Looks like an RPG Maker game. I've seen amazing things done with this software. This is your pretty average run of the mill game though. I've seen dungeon crawlers made with this before and even those have a decent story behind them. I don't know what's going on here. I know this is a demo, it is in alpha after all. I expected something more out of it. You know what you're doing, and the artwork is quite nice on the creatures. This really needs to be more fleshed out going forward. It was mind numbing to say the least.

Haven't heard this style from you in a while. The country and Celtic style that I remember fondly in your older works. You haven't lost your touch. I sense you put a lot of yourself with this style in songs that hit a deeper part of you. This is no exception! Really nice piece!

Bosa responds:

i knew you would like it of all people, old friend! you know, i did think of you when i released this haha, i knew you would hear it eventually!

I really liked this. At times I thought it was a bit repetitive at first, but after a second listen you pick up on the little nuances that build throughout the song. It's simple, and conveys a tone that can be peaceful or grandeur depending on the situation or setting. The rhythm is nice and with those changes throughout, although minor, keeps you in the song without just droning off. Well done!

BottleTopBillFanclub responds:

Thank you very much! I really appreciate your communicating your message well so I understand your perspective and I agree with you.

There was a thread in the Audio Forum about a guy defending his music. Saying it was harsh and he didn't know why it was being deleted. He was told by multiple people that it was way too loud and damaging to ears and equipment, thus making it unpleasant to listen to. We all tried to convince him, he wasn't listening though, claiming it was "harsh" and that it was the listener's fault. That it was uploaded in the Experimental genre and that he should get a pass.

I went on the search for an Experimental track that was harsh and came across this gem and shared it in that thread. I regret not leaving a review when I had the chance. The lyrics are fantastic. I love the beat and the melody going through. This is an appropriate harsh sounding song that doesn't damage the ears. On the contrary, it melts them wonderfully!

I quite like this piece. It holds this Gothic look to a point that is creepy, but at the same time intriguing to the eyes.

Pretty Nice

As a stand alone piece it's not bad, but it begs to have other buildings and stuff around it. Possibly continue with this piece and branch it outward into a street with other buildings and people.

By itself it's not bad, but it could use more.

HappyYeti responds:

i agree, although, as of yet i'm still undecided about how a street would look, i've tried to make a street several times but i always seem to unknowingly simplify everything and it turns out rather badly...

Sloppy

This won't do for the art portal and I doubt you'll get scouted.

First off that stick figure could stay if he had more detail to him like facial features or something within that lines. Now the tank and the fish. I see what you were going for, but you really could've put more effort into drawing the tank and the fish. I suggest you try a different medium instead of using MS Paint.

COMboy112 responds:

It was supposed to be a missile...
I forgot to add googles to the tank man. thank you for your help
