Reviews for One and One Story

Great game with good mechanics

However, the game is quite derivative (aesthetically and mechanically) from other art games - it's hard to make an art flash game stand out. Additionally, I breezed through all the levels - the game wasn't particularly hard, and mechanics were perhaps not exploited to their full extent; I like games with interesting ideas to really push the envelope.

Aside from these critisisms, the game is well made, had nice graphics, and clearly took a lot of thought to make; the recycling of levels using different mechanics was particularly clever.

Alright

I like the story and I like the gameplay, but there's a glitch where sometimes he or she keeps walking when I want her to stop.

MaTX responds:

If you're in the second chapter, the gameplay changed and you won't be able to control her anymore :)

good game hard puzzles

I can't believe it's not Eli! You've got a really good game here. Fun puzzle elements, nice and stimulating without being too hard. I liked the graphics and Carney did a great job with the soundtrack, as always.

My only real complaint is that the plotline lacked originality and had all of the depth of a Linkin Park song with all of its abstract droning about pain and heartbreak. Fixation's tale of murder wasn't exceptionally creative, but the dialogue and the very detailed plot made it so much more real and concrete. I would have liked to see some dialogue to draw us to these particular video game characters rather than just allowing the players to associate them with themselves.

Because the plot was rather watered down, I also noticed the game itself was really short. Even bonus mode only lasted a couple minutes. Perhaps it would have been cool to have full control over the level selection and ruleset in order to allow players to try every possible combination of every level, whether it was with the characters walking together, inverse, etc.
