Yeah, just short enough for the cuteness to last and not long enough to go "is this all there is to this?" Nice thing.

we should likely talk about tiger woods EA online.Just wasted an hour. It's compulsive.

Haha, I was tempted to post about that. Continue to be impressed with the kind of stuff they can do in a web browser now (though it uses Unity) - wish Pangya was playable like this!
tinycastle was cool too but... too tiny

tiny castles is great; a half-hour well spent.
― forksclovetofu, Wednesday, 7 April 2010 23:27 (fourteen years ago) link
Tiny Castles really turned me off honestly - - awkward and unresponsive controls with a lot of classic platformer no-nos (delay between attack button and attacking, can't attack while jumping, can't effectively jump past a ladder, can't attack from ladders) and arbitrary non-puzzles where everything on the screen just sort of changes when you hit a checkpoint, no way to predict that and no real control over it anyway. I freely admit that this is sort of out of whack with my well-documented LOVE LOVE LOVE for "Ultimate Wizard" on the Commodore 64 but there you go.
Nice soundtrack though!

I liked it because it was quick and diverting (and free).

oh man, the music cues totally make this
also like that it just becomes brutally hard to play as simon

Best fit in a way is playing as Contra guy, which perfectly captures the Contra experience: when you get the Spread Gun everything is just over-the-top wonderful, and then as soon as you lose it everything's fucked.
Really hard to switch over to Samus after that, losing the whole duck-and-shoot thing in favor of the bombs.

canabalt/portal.I made it to level 28 and had to go to bed.
it was fun. my final score was 2,055. But I imagine knowing some of the puzzles I could get a higher score now.

Exit Path's decent, but seems to miss the point a little of Canabalt, with so many moves and death traps, it's not simple and engaging enough to be worth all the dying. But the multiplayer/mmo stuff is a great idea, with more polish it could really be something.
Zelda II... just no.

― Flautists Uber Frisco (jjjusten), Saturday, 5 June 2010 05:25 (thirteen years ago) link
I was kind of touched by the idea of it, but it's not exactly a playable, fun game. Maybe it's all a deliberate commentary on the pointless 3D-ification of classic franchises....except that the 3D Zeldas were actually good. So I dunno.
