Reviews for "every wall"

This is exactly the kind of web game I love. Deliberately simple style + engaging, creative gameplay + a wonderfully conceived, masterfully executed premise... checks all the boxes. Great work, on the color scheme and character design especially.

I think the rhyming couplets are a nice touch, it reminds me of similar verse by Gorey or Burton - accessible and a bit (knowingly) over-the-top, but tinged with darkness and with some real heart behind it. I definitely didn't expect the last line, and I was surprised at how much the last 'scene' made me feel. The only critique I have of the writing is that a few lines (I won't be specific, for the sake of folks who haven't played, but one includes the word "formidable") seem to wrench words into syllabic structures that don't match their patterns of enunciation, and unfortunately when that would happen it took me out of the experience for a second. There's certainly nothing wrong with the writing style, but a few of the rougher lines might warrant revision.

As a last note, I absolutely adore the music. Such a perfect soundscape for the theme and style of the game.

wow thanks for that thoughtful review!

some of the rhymes are defenitely rough, i probably found my own way of pacing them, so it did not bother me :)

and i agree, bibiki did a great job!
thanks again :)

Nice, simple game. I like the concept!

Awesome game!

A very interesting experience! I really liked the way you utilized the colors in this game. It's just a few at a time, but you give depth to distance by adding "shading". I like when games do stuff like this. It makes them look bolder and more intricate.

There's not much to the "puzzle" aspect, but for what was there, it's decently executed. Story-wise, it's fairly nice. Nothing mind-blowing, a bit corny at times, but nothing outlandish, either. Also, some of the rhymes weren't the best. In fact, I think a few of them were forced, grammatically incorrect or just NOT rhymes at all.

The music and sounds were great, but after a while, the loop gets a bit grating.

Despite my many gripes, I still enjoyed your game. More of an avant-garde interactive story, but that's beside the point.

Keep up the great work!

aight, amazing game, but once I finished it, it started up again and everything was skewed. I thought "Wow, this is a cool surprise, adding replayability and challenge" but once I reached the second screen I got stuck, exiting the screen in any direction, including the intended one, reset me, wuh?
