Clever
I really enjoyed this quiz, I thought it was pretty unique and fun! I thought the layout of this quiz was great. and the graphics at the end were good. Really good idea to make those pictures black and white, otherwise this quiz would have been way too easy. The pictures were great. I like how they got harder and harder over time and they were of good quality. It was surprising to see how hard this quiz got by the end. Over all this quiz was really good. By the way I got 18/21.
Glad you liked it!
I would have been interested to know what you didn't like about it though - I mean you didn't make a single criticism, but gave it a 7/10.
Thanks for getting into details and giving your score though. I still give your review 7/10. ;-)
Stay funky!
No Pico
Quite good fun gam with having to guess ,what the picture if it was an apple of banana. The main problem i found was the irrating voice saying apple or banana it was a little off putting. The picture were hard to work out as you went along. I enjoyed guessing which was which, but there was little fun to have at the end with the same picture being used when you got it wrong. This had little to with Pico although he was featured at the end.The actual pictures you used were good at first, then they got confusing and maybe more choice as it seem a little limited.

Loads of folk complained about the music.
It didn't have MUCH to do with pico, but it is related enough to merit being given the title/pre-loader/be part of Pico Day. Check Pico's School's opening dialogue.
I actually thought the later pics were better - surely it's more fun if you need to think a little bit?
"and maybe more choice as it seem a little limited."
Not sure what you mean by this.
"there was little fun to have at the end with the same picture being used when you got it wrong."
For a while I thought you were meaning the bit of text that comes down - and you were expecting variations on that. (I took your sentence to mean, 'there was little fun to have when all's said and done...' Then I realised you were hoping for multiple ending pics on the screen where it shows your score.
That's actually a good idea. But how many folk would see the various pics?
Do you really live in England? You should perhaps make your writing a little more clear. Splitting up separate points into separate paragraphs may help.
You seem to have had a fair few things to say, but your review is kinda mangled and hard to understand. If you just concentrated on giving one suggestion/specific criticism, one piece of praise and a summary of your opinion/your score(s), you could maybe spend a little longer and make your text more intelligible.
I don't mean to criticise too much - thanks for the review. I just brought this all up as I think I remembered you asking for tips in the RRC.

17/21 on first try. Not that bad I guess.
The quiz was very nice with some unusual photographs. At first one may think: "Heh, sure I can tell an apple from a banana!" but it gets a little tricky later on.
Good thing that I eat a banana every day, so I'm not that easily tricked! ;)
I think it was the right decision to make the photos in black and white, or else it would have been too easy, especially on the first few pictures.
You should have added a mute button, though. That background song gets very annoying after a short time.

Looks like I still managed to trick you, though! I wasn't sure if it would be hard enough. :-D
Fair point on the mute button. There were only maybe 3 hours until the end of Pico Day and I just wanted to get this quick creation out into the portal. A mute button may have been worth the 7 minutes it'd take, though.
Thanks for the review!

that was awful and wat does that have to do with pico
Pico's School's starting dialogue.
Nice
Quite a funny game. The graphics were pretty good, and I liked how all the pictures were black and white. I guess it would´ve been way too easy if they were colored so that was a good idea. The little animation after you answered a question also looked nice.
As for what could improve, I think the backgroundsong was a little annoying. It was funny at first, but I just had to turn off the speakers after a while. It almost drove me crazy.
Also, the game has absolutely 0 replay value as all the pictures are the same and they stay in the exact same order. Maybe you should add a lot more pictures and let the program pick 20 randomly.
Overall 7 out of 10, 3 out of 5. It was a nice time-waster. Keep up the good work.

Originally, I was gonna have the starting ones be coloured, then go B&W, then pixellated, blurred etc. I think starting off with B&W art helps show that it's not gonna remain totally easy throughout though.
The text took a little bit of experimenting. I almost didn't bother adding the trails for 'wrong' and 'timeout' but it definitely makes a big difference.
Sorry about the song. It's meant to be my version of the song that I think Tom Fulp references in Pico's School, but my mic had static and I didn't spend the requisite amount of time to get it to sound good... I guess I could ask someone else to do a better version...
Randomly chosen pics? Maybe for next year...
Thanks for the great review!
