Reviews for "Unique Universe"

Keep working on the mechanics.

It's certainly an idea I've not seen in a flash previously, but it just isn't much fun.

Neither 'scrubbing the area' to find the phrases, nor typing, is a particularly involving or interesting thing to do and the messages, graphics etc. aren't interesting enough to entertain. The speed of the 'light' makes the scrubbing dull.

Also, when I went to view highscores, it didn't work.

The music loop got irritating.

I played until level 6ish of the main game - I wasn't gonna torture myself with the others. Tried the highscoremode, finished a couple of levels, closed and reopened to see if the messages were always the same, then decided it was a pretty lousy mechanic since we can just find it all the first time, then quickly type on a subsequent attempt to get a faster highscore.

I applaud you for wanting to try a unique mechanic, but I think you should call this a failed experiment.

However, if you maybe made the light mouse-controlled and had the words stuff we needed to piece together without help, it may be a lot more interesting to play.

Okay, i'll take your comments into consideration. Thanks for the review.

I hope this was just beta...

...cause you have a lot of work ahead of you.
Graphics 1 - You had color, so I give 1. It was quite dull otherwise
Style 3 - typing games can be fun. This wasn't. But you can work on it
Sound - Music was simply terrible.. But you had sound so 1
Violence 0 - Self explanatory
Interactivity 1 - Biggest problem of your game. The light should scroll more easily. With a mouse maybe? Then you could expand the searchable area with scrolling. With such limited time, you should be able to type without clicking on the box first. Also the "Submit" button is bad cause it requires a mouse. The last second might be crucial. You should be able to just type and press enter.
Humor 0 - well.. it wasn't really fun...

Work in it and improve the graphics.
