Reviews for Cube Escape: The Lake

This has potential. The coding is excellent, no glitches. The graphics are superbly drawn, as I even noticed that the two views of the table agree with each other as the roots grow. Although the puzzle is simple, it is not linear and brings about its own twist.

However, a bad marketing tactic ruins it all. Newgrounds is an old community, and we have made ourselves clear about what we hate. Forcing us to play another game is borderline outrageous; forcing us to play another game at another site is a sheer disrespect to Newgrounds and its community. Next time you cold use more common sense.

Great game, to be honest. Worth 4 stars, maybe even 5. But forcing me to go play another game to be able to finish this one? No. Just NO.

RustyLake responds:

Thanks for playing..The code from Seasons provides an alternative end. You can complete the game without it. The lake is a teaser for Seasons and our upcoming games.

Enjoyed the game very much. But I am not clicking links to other sites to finish it. Call me paranoid or just distrustful but no way Jose. A straight link saying "more games like this here" would have me checking out your other games.

some sound effects were too loud.

at one point you had a corpse scream. during the yawn this elicited i reflected on how sound is misused by amateurs trying to elicit responses that they failed to do so in a genuine fashion.

but then... oh yes there was more. then you forced us to know something from another game to solve a puzzle. i spent 15 minutes trying to figure it out and finally had to look up wtf was going on. i found out you made it so only someone who had played this other game would be able to solve it.

at this point you lost more than my interest.
