Solution: 1 point for every word where there are more vowels than consonants?

(haven't checked all posts, and don't know if Y is counted as a vowel or a consonant... cause if it's a vowel, then it doesn't fit in one of the posts I checked, mind you).

Oops.... sorry, I didn't realized I had stolen something... Really sorry...

foz, if you wish am working on 2 game projects that I could use help with. No matter if it's only 1 small model,a character or a full background... no strings attach. They'll both be freeware though, so can only offer credit. Just PM me, if you wish to hear more.

[OCEANSPIRIT DENNIS: The Terror of the Ice Princess]

Well, I've made my mind on who to vote for, since in the end it's about the game one enjoyed the most.
I've also ranked them, and I'll give a bit of feedback about each game at the same time.

6. Place: OCEANSPIRIT DENNIS: The Terror of the Ice Princess

Spoiler

Sorry about getting last place! But someone had to get it.
Unfortunately I did not got to see all the great work TeamPartyWagon put into this game, and I do realize it's a parody, still... I just couldn't get into it! Gave up after 10-15 minutes of being constantly shot from the pirate ship. not being able to do anything, and after I used the sword on the pirates, they just said something unreadable, and continued shotting me.
I admit it! I suck at this game, not particularly found of RPGs and those blocking animations where driving me nuts! I shut down the game never to give it another chance.

5. The Man That Only I Can See

Spoiler

It really pains me to rank this game so low... I had really great expectations about this one. The graphics are stunning, the atmosphere is awesome, and I really honestly wanted this to be top 1! However, it turned out not to have any game play content. It's more like a video that you need to keep a key pressed for it to play. It's a nice story, but that just isn't enough for me.
Now, go work on that character speed and add game play. Then you'll have a gem right there.

4. Monster Wants In

Spoiler

Nice little "wack-a-mole" game you have here. I suck at it, but at least it was fun to play.
One would only hope there was a bit more, like actually survive and some puzzles to solve while stopping the Monster from coming in.

3. Freak Chic

Spoiler

Nice game, like the art. A good variety of puzzles too.
For some odd reason I couldn't get into it though. And some of the "puzzles" I could have lived without (Ogre fight, unlocking the necklage). The music puzzle, unless I missed something, is for me very annoying. The tune is just too long for me to remember and play it; there are no visual cues what so ever; not any visible or invisible way of turning the BG music off, so that I can concentrate just on the tune. Also wondering how a deaf (or music "inept") person can solve this puzzle? )
Have not yet finished the game

2. Song Animals

Spoiler

Really nice atmosphere, great surrealistic, the BG music here doesn't annoy me when trying to solve the music puzzles. This is definitely the most soothing and relaxing game I've ever played!
To add to it, it's great for kids. Good job!
I have yet not finished this one either as I can't seem to figure out the sequence for the blue mushroom.

1. Scylla And Charybdis: A Grecian Ship From Olympus U

Spoiler

I liked the title screen, but didn't had any expectations about this game, however I just loved it! Despite the bugs, and even needed to restart due to it, it's still the one game that delivered the kind of puzzles I enjoy, superb art and animations, nice story and dialogs, weird characters. And the 70's music, spot on! Though at occasions it was a bit too much.
Hope to see the bug free and improved version of this one!

I'm guessing he's not taking care of it anymore. Some times ppl do stuff and then life changes and one has no longer time/interest (insert reason here) to maintain it.
Just make your own "dummy" sprites or BG, or download some (Google). It doesn't really matter that you're not using the exact same files.
I didn't even "do" the tutorial as per following and doing his steps. I mostly watched them, and after that I started coding my own. Since then I knew more or like how to do stuff, and if in doubt, I could just find the tutorial I needed.

Oops... sorry I missed this post for some odd reason.
Let me see if  I can find something.

EDIT: Okay, found something. Probably too easy, so I cropped it a bit.

Oh dear... I've only finished half of them, have tried all though.
Got my favorite, but would really like to finish all before committing and voting. But maybe I won't be able to.

This looks sweet...

EDIT: Uhm? Why is there no winsetup file?

Thanks Mandle.

The fire is Smoke (Quick smoke, then turned into fire) effect. There's particle effect for the ambers flying up though. It stills need some work, adding smoke to some of the burning logs (the end of the tutorial) but I was just too lazy at the time.
I guess the grass I was lucky, turned out okay at first try, so I didn't bothered too much with a bunch of settings. Guess the fact that it's a night scene made be lazy last night.
And I'm wondering it those ambers are living "too long". There's a lot of what looks like ambers around the door... shouldn't be any there.

Geez, you guys make me want to stuck my head in the sand...
Awsome work.

Sorry Kumpel, those arm lines looked like single pixels in my eyes...

Okay, got it too.
Would still be nice if you only included the contents of the COMPILED folder.

Anyway, stumble into a couple bugs.

Spoiler

If you click on the tree, where the star is, the game crashes!!!!

You can open the trapdoor multiple times and get the items inside.

The game page isn't really a place to "upload" your game, but it's the place you link it to your download site.
Just upload your zipped file from the compiled folder (make sure the game file and all other files are there), and then upload it to your hosting site (mediafire?) then copy the link there to the url for "download this game" on the Games page.

No need to "delete" the entry. Unless you really not ready to upload your finish game in a short time.

Congrats on your first game.

A few things: Build your game, zip the contents of it, upload it, provide us with the link.

You might also want to change the topic name of this post (choose EDIT on your the post options). "My first game"  isn't very indicative of what game it is. Give it the same name your game has. If you like, you can also add "Kids friendly" or something like that. Parents love to find new games to play with their kids.

EDIT: Peder beat me to it...

tks ddq!
Nice to be able to see what's going on.

I subscribe to what everyone has said before me.

Thanks for sharing and good luck with the project!

Nice Kunpel!
You did forgot the "double wide pixel" rule though. So you competing with Grok in the single pixel wide competition.

Here's my Colonial Warrior, from original Battlestar Galactica... always wanted one!

Geez, there's no keeping up to date with the amazing quality work you produce at a stunning speed.

Good job, and congrats with a new release.
