"Remarkable"

date: November 2, 2009

Great art, music and atmosphere. The concept was great and really entertaining.
The only flaws were the story, it had some minor gaps, such as the year and the countries (I mean, I guess by then most of them might have changed, but it's MO) as well as why the fuck could Automaton 3 fly. The animation could use some work as well. I am sure that by now you have surley improved, kudos.

"I enjoyed it"

date: October 5, 2009

I love puzzle games more than any game and this was simple and fun though not some items didnt let me cick em though it mayhave been because it wasn't the time to select said item, later it worked fine ( had to refresh). I would suggest a less decorated text for others but I am used to reading text like this in mideaval games, over all it was fun and I LOVEd the atmosphere, Art everything, good music sets the mood. great job

"Sadly"

date: October 1, 2009

Sadly the game tend to bugg, in the start, were you have emptied your gas(whatever) for the first time it dosen't seem to work as my first try, second or third, i thought i might just miss something so i lod the mouse around the screen in search. no results, make a hint bar or something as this might get annoying.

"Nice!"

date: September 18, 2009

Good game! A bit short, but it had a good story and theme. I'd also suggest speeding up the aminations a bit, as they dragged on somewhat. Still, I can't wait for more.

"neato"

date: September 16, 2009

I enjoyed this intro and suggest you give it a go. The illustrations are fun, and the world created was interesting. Thanks

As a side note, I do not understand why people rate a game lower because they do not enjoy the genre of the game. For example "[Horrible... blah, blah].... But if you're into puzzle games or whatever I guess you'd like this ..." In such cases, their "constructive" criticism sends the implicit message - "Make a different kind of game, because I don't like games like this!!" That just strikes me as odd and unhelpful.

"The Text"

date: August 21, 2009

I found the text difficult to read. Esp the M's and W's.
Maybe it's just me but yeah.

"Horribly long intro."

date: July 17, 2009

Anyone who reads the reviews before playing please avoid this game. The intro has to be one of the longest intros I've ever had to suffer through.. after the intro I didnt feel like playing it at all. Very boring story about something that no one cares about. But if you're into puzzle games or whatever I guess you'd like this if you can make it through the intro.

"Not bad, if a bit easy"

date: June 23, 2009

That was enjoyable. Thanks! The puzzles were a bit on the simple side. Also, the entire narrative would benefit (greatly) from a spell and grammar check- the story is broken up by a lot of bad sentence fragments, and shifting tone (from somewhat formal, to starting lines with 'so' etc...).

ex:
The instruction page changes tense from "woke up" to "know nothing" and then back to "all you knew"...
"the most special about the automaton..."
"want's"
"TO FIND THE EGG'S"
etc. . .

I normally don't spend much time criticizing spelling and grammar, but this is an attempt at a narrative, and should be proof-read.

The game itself was enjoyable- would benefit from less blunt hints and more deceptive puzzles. Plenty to like, plenty to improve. Good stuff.
