This just goes to show that a good game name and a decent sense of humour are wasted when your game is a simple shooting alley. Dissappointing.

There's the bare bones of a decent puzzle game here. The click-and-drag mechanic makes this different from other colour matching games, but specifically it makes this game easier. As such, you could really improve this by adding more challenge; simply increasing the drop speed of the blobz, and increasing the number of colours, would help keep the game interesting and create a sense of progression. Better visual feedback would be nice too - let us know how much our chains of blobs are scoring. Not bad, but it needs more to it to make it interesting.

TheDavidCarney - the game you're thinking of is Bacteria and Bacteria 2, developed by Simon Donkers. Of course, Bacteria 2 had both online and offline multiplayer, multiple game modes and a variety of AI difficulties, rendering this remake, which is good but misses out those features, a little pointless.

This is a well-presented game with a nice simple control method. The music is pretty good, but fading between songs seems fairly haphazard and buggy. Gameplay-wise this is a mixed bag - I like the simplicity of the idea, but the weird sticky physics and the fact that colliding with the scenery robs the balls of all their momentum mean that this isn't as fun as it could be.

Very good for a first game. My suggestion is to have the ground scroll to create more of a sensation of movement. Good stuff.

Er... right. Ignoring the music (something that noone else seems to be able to do) this is a really basic platform game with simple level design. It's redeemed (slightly) by its sense of humour, but the game itself is too simple to warrant merit.

Above average Breakout clone with some inventive powerups. Personally I found it a little too easy, especially with all the extra life powerups flying about.

Not bad; clear graphics and nice sound. The clock test is the most irritating thing ever. ;)

A good-looking Column/Puyo Puyo variant. There are some interesting ideas here, but I think some more visual flair when you connect a group of flowers might be in order, as well as some music. I was unsure about the way that the flowers sometimes stick together after a group has been made and sometimes fall - if you're going to do something different like that I think it should be signposted, either graphically or in a tutorial. As for the litte blue guys that float around eating flowers - they look like they've been designed as "enemies" but in fact when you approach the endgame they become beneficial, clearing large parts of the screen by setting off chain reactions. So, are they supposed to be good or bad? I like this, but there are changes that could be made which would benefit it enormously.

First things first - I really like the spare art design, and the sound during the boss battle is perfect. I also love the imagination that went into the jutsu powers, especially the Beholder's Eye thing. However, the combat is too stilted; there's not enough skill necessary to pull of the combo attacks. The combo finishers you can learn make fighting the regular enemies far too easy; it would be better if these finishers were based on precise timing of button presses. In fact, the difficulty in general is unbalanced; by the end of the first act i'd learned all the skills and most of the jutsus. The fact that the enemies are so easy to beat - and the fact that there are so many of them - means that most of the game is like a war of attrition against numbers rather than a test of skill - and then the second act boss comes along and wipes you out. Honestly, I think that there is the basis of an excellent game here, but it needs polishing.
