Story:
Well, it all begins with an unexpected “disaster” … All the stars are falling down from the sky. Is this the end of the world?
The youngest Nobel Prize winner Minna Vellamo is assigned with the mission of finding back lost stars. She chose to be accompanied by a robot named Harvey for him being a …robot. Little does she know, Harvey is the clumsiest and most talkative robot ever.
One day before departure, Minna was told that “Electric Eel” Janus White will also be joining the team. Being depressed for a very long time since retirement, the former footballer signed himself up to the project. He believed that this is the only opportunity to find back his old-day glory and to prove to the public that he is still a hero.
Will Janus achieve what he is looking for? Often described as bold, independent and determined, will Minna get along well with Janus?

World of Contraptions
The game has so much more potential. The art style of the components would certainly lend itself to a change of scenery, I was disappointed at the constant white and grey levels and white overcast sky.
In terms of building, its very difficult to make smaller devices as the snapping tools (while quite effective) were incredibly limiting. I wouldn’t mention it if it were helping with physics bugs, but it certainly does not. I can’t count how many times an otherwise very simple machine just floated away due to a clipping issue.

if you’ve ever played and enjoyed ( i think it was an old 2d flash game ) called Fantastic contraption , well this is it but in 3D with so so much more.
a very polished physics builder to solve puzzles
the tutorial is just enough to get you started, without making it a cakewalk, letting you discover new pieces for yourself.
game runs very smooth no glitches discovered so far

DNA Farm
Very interesting game, the description says it all, clearly…but it runs well and feels fun! I keep saying it in these reviews, but I mean it…the price is a little too steep..this could be fun for a lot of people but…if they won’t spend 11 bucks, maybe the won’t see how good it is, anyways..just my thoughts. Not a bad game at all!

This is the kind of annoying and addictive game at the same time, but if you pay close attention just create a pattern and the solution appears, too bad my fingers don’t help me.

First impression: wow I dig the artstyle and music.
Then comes the “story” text that makes up a story about why the protagonist has to go to the end of the stages, the moment after it tells you that it says “what are you waiting for, no seriously there is no story the whole point of this game is to make you rage”… Sigh. Those are contradicting sentences and it’s not generally a good idea to tell your consumers that the point of your game is to make them rage when you pay for a video game.
So I go about the first 5 level and think alright this game has a few things that could be improved upon but so far it’s good enough for what I paid (got it in a bundle) then comes level 6 of world 1 and they introduce a pink line. The goal of the game is to gravity shift through obstacles and this pink line acts as a floor or ceilling depending on where you shift from. The thing is that you have to press up or down again on the line and it would have made sense to just pass through once you input that command but instead, you just flip on it and have to press it again to pass through. That is a design flaw in my oppinion because after like 5 minute of gameplay you changed the rules where I had to input 1 command to dodge and incomming obstacle (well from 0 to 1) and made it that it became 0-3 commands per obstacle. In a runner, this is too much information that has to be made every 2 seconds and makes the game unplayable, I would have to do the whole stage per section while dying endlessly to learn the layout of the stage and execute the commands accordingly. And that is within 5 minute of gameplay, if it would be the last mechanic to learn it would have been fair but the second mechanic? Nah. There is plenty of better game in the genre, that doesn’t use unfair or poorly designed mechanics to “make you rage”. Save your money.

Instant Death
Its a fine game but I wouldnt recommend it if you dont want to go through rage inducing obstacles. This isnt a typical game to just jump through. This has 20 levels and each one of them will be a real pain to beat. If you are getting this, good luck.

Best game ever? Maybe.
Pros:
High precision challenges in 3D.
Cons:
There are moments where the player has to wait or walk without any challenge like a
stage where the player starts on a moving platform and it takes many seconds to get
to the first challenge, so repeating these moments on every attempt is annoying;
No map editor.
Rating: 9.8/10; with a map editor it would be 9.9/10.

The Line
GREAT, cant get past level 6 though
– Real player with 0.6 hrs in game
Written for 1561’s Thoughts - Honest reviews, for busy people.
The Line is a tricky puzzle game with a Snake-like twist. I ran into a few small bugs that I think will be patched soon, but otherwise the game is a rather fun and unique concept. 6/10
