DrNeroCF	Jan. 28, 2008 I really appreciate the clarification, but I still don’t know if I understand why you believe that the extra features negatively affect your overall rating of the game. If you found playing golf to be frustrating, you should have stopped playing it, if you didn’t like the difficulty of the bonus levels, you should have not tried to complete them. The only places where you can fall off the bottom of the screen are the cameo levels and Level 6, which is a very short level, and the transitional levels, but the transitional levels in World 1 also had that. I just put a lot of effort into making sure that players who liked to do nothing more than jump about on slanted surfaces, or run through the entire game without breaking their rhythm could do so, and players who wanted more difficulty could find a challenge. Yes, the overall difficulty of the later levels in World 2 are higher than in World 1, but that’s why it’s called World 2, and not FPA 2. Maybe you could go straight to level 1 from the level select room (level 1 is open from the beginning) and run through the game without worrying about a single snailshell or cameo door, I would imagine that you should be able to do nothing more than ‘be fancy!’ and find a game that is at least on par with World 1.

loops of zen	Sep. 25, 2008 Reminds me a lot of Net from One More Level, though Net uses square pieces and this uses circular pieces. There's definitely some brain fry that sets in pretty quickly. That said, it's a very elegant game and the game play is simplicity itself, so you're to be congratulated for that. 4/5.
light-Bot	Sep. 25, 2008 Excellent! A very easy 5/5. Ironically, I wrote something very similar to this for my senior-level Computer Science degree project, so this game brought back a lot of memories, heh. An excellent demonstrator and and even better logic game. I think level 10 is actually the hardest level (HINT: turn on the light closest to your starting point first!), and 11 and 12 are easy by comparison. That's a minor quibble, though. Excellent, excellent work!
Oh, the Huge Manatee!	Aug. 30, 2008 Well, at its heart, it's basically another twitch avoider. In other words, it's none too original. Even the power-ups aren't particularly original (laser ragdoll did them first). Still, the graphics perfectly match the humorous nature of the game, as do the sound effects and there's definitely replay value! Still, I can't bring myself to give it a 4: it is just a twitch avoider, after all. So call it 2/5 for an unoriginal concept +1 for the well-done humor aspects = 3/5.
