Julia: Escape from the dream

The gameplay is a bit simple, but it's otherwise nicely made. Seems like a good basis for a more complex sequel. 4/5

It's a good game, and a good basis, but there aren't enough to upgrade, and I never feel in danger. Since it's just back and forth, slowly, it's just pressing up, then turn, up, then turn.

Agreeing with Cogitation here. Simple, but cute - and Julia Dream is a damn good song to base nearly ANYTHING on FFS - +10 intarnets for throwing in Syd-era Floyd :) It is as a rule a bit on the easy side though, and you run out of things to do with your upgrade points long before you run out of levels - seems a bit silly. Perhaps if you make another, another possibility for a point-sink would be "Faster Formatting" or something akin to that? In any case, this could really be turned into something pretty interesting I'd feel. Not sure what, but it has a whole lot of undifferentiated potential to me. Maybe a bigger and all axis movement playing field, more skills, limited camera range (another skill possiblity there, to increase it), new and weird backgrounds you have to interact with to accomplish things? Just noodling here, but I'd like to see it tried!
