[Gretel and Hansel]

Pretty

Very nice art style.
Loved finding the deaths.

[Glass Fish Rhythm]

pixelz

Woot, liking the retro graphics and music.

Reminds me of When Pigs Fly.

I did not find it particularly difficult. Those reviewers are whack.

[Back to the Cubeture 1]

lulz

The first point and click adventure that I've beaten without a walkthrough!
That must mean it's awesome.

I especially liked the music and the final battle.

JAWSOME

Shark taking down planes = instant 10/10

jawsome! :)

[Crush the Castle: PP]

Neat game

Got a bit frustrating towards the end, but once I finished it and got the big bomb, it was pretty easy to go back and get all the gold medals.

The king's a pretty cool guy eh, crushes castles and doesn't afraid of anything.

I found it hilarious when occasionally a person would fly a massive distance and land safely on his feet, only to be hit by another flying person moments later.

neat game

Nice graphics and nice music.
The upgrades aren't too interesting though, perhaps a bigger variety of weapons or something?

[Medieval Rampage 2]

Been waiting for this after seeing it on AG

A lot more variety than the first game, especially with melee and magic added, and the bosses are much less boring to fight now.
Saving feature also helps a lot.
I especially liked how the normal foes are much more interesting now, they explode and leave traps etc. and there's some strategy involved in which to kill first.

Complaints:
Mana potions don't heal much MP, hence making magic seem a bit underpowered.
The blackout effect seems a bit extreme, and especially should not hide the menu at the top.
Might want to make the hitboxes on the enemy fireballs a bit smaller. They often hit me even when there's space for my guy to pass between two of them.
The last level is pretty laggy even on low quality, and my PC is pretty good..
not really serious problems though.

Questions:
How do I get that 5% final boss death achievement?
I died when he had almost no health and it didn't work :(
How about the 50% HP one? Do I have to beat the whole game without going above 50% or what? Or can I do each level separately?
Also, I can't seem to get the "play 5 times" achievement.

Minor bugs:
Sometimes the blackout effect appears under the enemies, so you can still see some things.
Some of the items in the shop are named incorrectly, such as the DarkBow/Compound Bow ++ and Acid/Poison arrow, I'm assuming that's cause you changed the names from the original version.
Also, accidentally having Caps Lock on prevents me from opening the inventory, might want to leave a warning about that somewhere.

This is my longest review ever! Gratz on a neat game!

[Captain Crash]

neat

lol nice soundtrack.
Probably gonna be overshadowed by Turtle Toss but :(

[William and Sly]

Neat

Beautiful graphics, really tranquil atmosphere and easy to pick up.
A bit tedious finding all the mushrooms without a guide though.

Makes me want to go outside and visit nature lol.

[Madness Accelerant]

Leet

Woah, first of all, the graphics are awesome, especially on the clown.

The game's fairly simple to pick up, it's a shame you can't duck or run faster, cause this would have mad dodging some attacks a lot easier, but I guess overall the game wasn't too hard. Some of the hit-boxes seem to be a bit off but that's not a big issue either.
