I'm a coder. I can code.

What do you need to finish the game?

Looking at this brings shame to me for being a MLP hyper-fan and a programmer alike . .

Really? "Shining N*gger" Just. . . Why even make something like this?


If ya have something to say, PM me. I have a lot of time to spare.
Also never PM egg82.

alright, here goes:
Disclaimer: I'm neither a brony nor am I against bronies. Whatever floats your boat.
I have watched all of the MLP episodes. If you want to know the reason, it was because I was bored and the show was interesting.

First thing I noticed:
That was a ridiculously long load time for a point-'n-click. Did you stick an uncompressed audio in there? Load your game in 56K and feel the pain.

Second:
Your changelog needs to change. That's not exactly how versioning works. You can't add a few things, fix a few things, and remove something and go from version 1.1 to 4.1
I would stick that at 0.0.5 at most. Move to beta and then you can change that second number.
It goes dev/alpha (0.0.0 to 0.0.1) to beta (0.0.0 to 0.1.0) to release (0.0.0 to 1.0.0)

Third:
Save yourself some trouble and put the current version in the main menu somewhere instead of constantly updating the comments.

Fourth:
Mute. Button.
That is all.

Fifth:
The background is horrific. I understand the game's still in alpha, but please change it before you intend to release it.
Also, the font you chose looks childish and unprofessional. It may work for this game style later, but for now it completely destroys the mood.

Sixth:
Links. Not necessary.

Seventh:
The art. I understand programmer art (and again, the fact that it's in alpha), but for the love of god get yourself an artist before release.

Eighth:
"Shining N**g*r"
Dude, really?

Ninth:
The questions have wrong answers so ridiculously obvious that it just makes the thing too easy.

Finally:
Learn to code at least a little if you plan on making games. The game you're making isn't hard at all. Like, at all.

The good points:
The intro text, albeit suffering a spelling error or two, is friendly and fun, which is the mood being set for the game.
My ears aren't bleeding, which is actually very nice.


Programming stuffs (tutorials and extras)
PM me (instead of MintPaw) if you're confuzzled.
thank Skaren for the sig :P
