"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.

The music is royalty free and I did give credit to the composer.

"Too Linear"

date: October 12, 2008

Not a bad overall concept, if a bit slow, but Linear puzzle games rarely have much replay value. Perhaps in the future you might have several different manners of completing a puzzle, instead of your audience having to follow a dictated course of action. It becomes more puzzle and less "guess what the author wants you to do."

"Interesting but Simple"

by: Raavea
date: July 25, 2008

I loved the story, the graphics were okay - not brilliant, but better than a lot I have seen of late - but the puzzles were very simple. Although I couldn't be bothered with the alphabet one and just guessed it, and succeeded.

I think you need to really work on the puzzle side of things, make complex, interesting, difficult puzzles. Put things in rooms that will highlight with tab but won't do anything to help, as well, because I know a few people who tab-cheat at this variety of game.

I will play the sequel even if you don't improve, because I love this sort of game, but it won't get a better score unless it gets better.

<3 Good luck with your next one!

Author's Response:

I can see your points, but the interesting thing is that many people say otherwise. It's hard to please all the audiences and I must admit that im not aiming for perfection for I am quite new to flash game making in general. Take my games as... The first ones. Automaton will be my first series and will therefore be far from perfect, atleast for everyone. But I do believe in improvment so i'll continue to make these games in hopes of, well, getting better.

Thanks for your review.
