"Brilliant"

date: May 11, 2008

I liked this game alot, it had its own little charm about it, great idea, great level design and great puzzles and controls throughout. Very good work with this. And 8th place is very good for this.
The gameplay was good, i liked the levels and the controls were excellent. The timer was a bit bland compared to everything else in the game though, so maybe spice that up a bit.

The graphics were excellent, the characters and levels had thier own unique flair and style and it was really cool and interesting, id love to see more games and even movies made in this style. The backrounds were colourful and interesting too.
The animtion was smooth throughout the game too, smooth running jumping and backround and object movement. nice work.
The music was fantastic. Nothing to even say about it.

Overall it was a very very good game. I really liked it and id love to see more. Good work!!

"Interesting"

I quite like how you've mapped the physics of this out - when the forklift gets to a block, you've got to be so careful, or it tips over. It is nice how you've prevented the Forklift from rolling over, but I think it would have added to the game if it were possible to actually bothc a level by rolling your forklift over, or something similar.

Nicely designed levels, challenging, but enjoyable puzzles and a catch little soundtrack. I'd suggest that you maybe have a hints button, just to try and show people the way out, for example - maybe penalise them some time for it.

"Pretty Good"

date: May 9, 2008

Pretty good game here, though I would maybe change the look of the timer, it seems to look a little ugly to me just being a number at the top of the screen, maybe put a nice box around it or something, just to improve it a little. It's kind of easy to get stuck infront of the forklift too, maybe you could allow to enter from the front as well as the back.

The graphics are good and the animation here seems to have been done well, so good work on both of those points. The game is also quite fun to play, so yeah, I like the rank for the time it took at the end to, that was good. So overall, very nice work here.

5/5

"Good fun"

Great game. The graphics were great. Very colorful and smooth. I really thought the backgrounds were unique and fun. The music was great. I thought this type of music was perfect for a game like this. I'm glad you used different songs for each level and not just use the same one over and over again. The game play was good, very fun and I actually enjoyed going back to the levels and beating my old score. I managed to get all gold medals for each level. The controls worked well and were easy to pick up. The difficulty wasn't all that challenging. After level 2 I had to go over every level once just to get down a strategy, but by my second play through it was cake. I hope you make another game with more challenging levels. Good job on this game I really enjoyed it!

"Cool idea. a few"

by: Bezman

Woo! Finally managed to complete the 8 levels, with a 'unicorn power' rank in level 1, 'the internet' on level 2 and gold medals on levels 3-8. (I replayed 1&2 to improve my rank but not 3+)

This certainly seemed like a novel idea and I really wanted to love it.

Your graphics are sumptuous. I love your patterns in the walls, the backgrounds and the style of our avatar is so cute!

The music is well chosen and lovely to listen to - I specially liked the music for level 8. It would have been nice to have specific song titles so I can go and download that last song more easily, but enh.

Anyways, now we come to the level design.

Level 1 was near-perfect in terms of introducing us to the various game mechanics and level 2 took a tiny bit of head-scratching but was a nice level of difficulty. Level 3, however, really brought it down for me.

I had to retry a whole bunch of times - having worked out what I had to do, the boxes would often fall into a place where I couldn't get them out of. It just seemed a needlessly frustrating way to get used to the physics.

I would have maybe liked to see a 'pull' option - perhaps map 'jump' to the up button, then use space to flick switches and if pressed by a block, she'd grab on and pull if the opposite direction is pushed. Being able to pull would also have made level 6 more enjoyable.

I'd also suggest you maybe make the physics more 'forgiving' somehow - certainly making the forklift trucks more inclined to stay upright with a box on them.

The remaining levels were all pretty varied and fun. I would have liked to see some levels with a more puzzley bent - it seems like there's still a lot of level ideas with the foklift truck scenario that you hadn't explored.

I think you should have had some better ending - the current ending just feels like you ran out of time or something - I think a harder last level, or some sort of 'boss' or something to give the game a 'full stop' would have helped.

The 'puzzle' with the steps and switches was a nice change of pace, but felt like it was leading up to something rather than a conclusion.

It's a great game and both the idea and the in-game visuals and audio are great. Ignoring level 3, it was fun while it lasted. I'd love to see it improved and resubmitted with more levels though.

A very nice and innovative game. The graphics are pretty good and the music for the different levels is very fitting, too.

I like the setup of the different levels. Every level is different from the other (well at least the levels I have played ;) ) and evry level is definatly challenging.

The controls work very well and I like that you added a restart option for each level. Otherwise it would be very annoying to restart the whole flash if you got stuck.

"great!"

I can so no other option rather than giving this a 5 out of 5. If you ever make a sequel I suggest putting in a playground or sandbox mode. In my opinion there aren't enough flash games based on physics gameplay.
