[Chat Foncé : Petite Adventure]

i keep refreshing this but all i get is a black screen with the music playing. using chrome and win8. i hope i can check this out sometime because the reviews seem great.

the end was a little frustrating, and i understand you wanted to make a point but the gameplay was linear and i didnt really like having to redo it to get past the hole. anyways, the game is great aside from that

[The Warrior in the Garden]

you should have some kind of explanation for why we leave or turn back, like some floating text that says "someones here" and then "i shouldnt go any further" or something. when i got to the far right end i thought the game had just ended abruptly, and it would help to guide the player a little more.

this looks and sounds great. the combat was glitchy and i wish there was a little more depth, but i think if you made this the first level of a longer, more complex game, you could have an impressive title

[Running out of Power Inc.]

i liked the ambient sound and the writing was great until the ending. also i turned the power off but the lightbulb outside was still on.
otherwise this was a pretty cool game good job friend

Thanks for the feedback.

charming.
the only issue i had was that i wasnt able to give the bones to the skeleton one at a time, so i went around looking for other options for like 3 minutes.
could have been way worse given that the third option was "have a pair of bones", but i feel like the dude should accept one at a time too
anyways p good job. make another one but like 5x as long and u could get this last star that i am currently withholding

[VALOR: The Lord and Savior]

even the most basic controls in this are difficult to use. at first glance it seemed like it was kind of like an old arcade fighter, but its really not so much. the movement is just absurdly jerky and it doesnt make much sense that i cant just walk. if you want to make the movement all dash based, you cant leave us with such a small screen.
you should never have the player use arrows, mouse, AND spacebar. we have to be able to hit any button without moving our hands back and forth. i feel like there are plenty of keys near the ones used that make mouse controls obsolete. at the very least you need to add more optional controls, say WASD and mouse OR spacebar and arrow keys, etc
i dont even understand how the map works. how can it be 2x2 areas when the
im not saying this game is that bad but there are so many technical issues in just the first few areas
that give me a headache
maybe ill come back later

Newshield responds:

So basically either I'm losing my mind are people here just refuse to read. This is why I stated before hand that this game was made because I wanted to make it. I didn't do it to impress anyone. I know that you like many others refused to read the game or, refused to play and just try jumping into it and rushing through it.

I know this is true because in your own words you claimed: "at the very least you need to add more optional controls, say WASD and mouse OR spacebar and arrow keys, etc"

The game tutorial clearly tells you at the very First area of the game that you can use the WASD keys or Arrow Keys. You don't even have to use the Space Bar because that attack is optional. You strike enemies by tapping or holding down the S or Down Arrow Key.

Plus, just like its explained in the tutorial the whole Dashing run is there to allow you to evade attacks instead of jumping which would still leave you open to take a hit. The Dash (if did at the right time) allows you to dash through enemy attacks. There's even a Wiki that shows how the game is suppose to be played.

im having a pretty great time with this. i find i seem to win with a smaller deck full of gold mines and that i dont seem to need many crystals or iron, but thats probably just because i havent seen that many cards yet

[Free Traders]

game wont start. i typed in my name and hit enter or w/e and now its justa map that says "Add new player" but theres nothing to interact with. the description sounds great to me but the game just wont start. i tried refreshing the page and now its just stuck on "loading player data". good luck getting this fixed because id really love a new mercantile game to play
