Review: Another World Part 1 - Striss

This is a review for the level Another World Part 1 by the creator Striss
Description:
Your ship has crashed on a mysterious planet. Fight your way across the world!
PROS:
The use of lighting and materials was well thought of. And music. Every fit into the whole mysterious planet atmosphere. Like the bridge crossing obstacle. When I first saw it i thought, O geez another bridge to cross, but then i was knocked off. Actually because of my horrible timing this part gave me the most trouble. The puzzles and other obstacles, although basic, did what they were suppose to do. In other words....they worked.
CONS:
Nothing really new or original I found. Yeah the ships looked ok but were way to easy to dodge. Not much of a story for being Part 1. I don't really feel like trying Part 2 cuz I really have know idea whats going on. Didn't really like the rover. I actual got it to flip, but luckily i didn't need it anymore.
ADVICE:
Seeing as how this is the first chapter i think you really need to have some sort of story. If you want people to come back to finish the rest of them you are going to have to give them a reason.
FINAL THOUGHTS:
Meh. Nothing really blew me away except the bridge obstacle. And even that didn't blow me out of the water. The idea is nice but nothing really grabbed my attention. There was really no wow factor.
Length: Medium
Difficulty: Easy:
Replayability: None
Funness: Not Much, maybe a smidge
Score: 4/10

Review: H.A.T.E. - Voltiare

This is a review for the level H.A.T.E. by the creator Voltiare.

Description:
Solve your way through 10 challenging puzzles to pass the Human Aplitude Test Experiment.

PROS:
Well first things first. This is from the same creator that made Temple of Sun and Moon which I gave a nine, so expectations were high. Needless to say he didn't dissapoint. The levels concept which is to figure out these test chambers is awesome. After completing each one I couldn't wait to see what the next one had in store. The chambers pretty much got better and better as you went alone. The whole idea with the computer introducing you to each chamber was well done as well, and sometimes amusing. The use of colors in the level, while simple, were very effective.
CONS:
The ending had me bummed as I was kinda hoping that it would be this epic battle or something. I don't want to spoil anything but yeah I wish there had been a bit more. Something a touch rewarding. Some of the puzzles at the beggining were kinda easy but really they are supposed to be so thats not really a con.
ADVICE:
Not sure if i said it in your last review but you should teach me.
FINAL THOUGHTS:
Highly enjoyed the level and its concept. So much so that I actually told a friend about it! Yes i know there is a prize bubble for acing it but sadly due to the length I will not be replaying. It does take quite some time to complete. Anyways that being said I still hearted and now I sit anxiously waiting for your next project!! Hurry!!!
Length: Long
Difficulty: Medium to kinda tricky
Replayability: Not much as it is long and there isn't much surprise a second go around.
Funness: A bunch. Loved the final chamber!
Score: 9/10

Review: Rise and Fall of the Evil Lord (part 1) - Lleonard

This is a review for the level Rise and Fall of the Evil Lord part 1 by creator Lleonard.
Description:
In part one you must find the monster egg that will hatch to destroy the city of Pagh.
PROS:
Very very well made first effort. Your attention to detail is awesome. Plus the level is sort multi pathed in that you can go off the main trail and find all sorts of goodies, like points and prizes. Don't remember what the prizes were but im pretty sure they were original creations. Liked the story and the music fit well into the level. Crab design was solid.
CONS:
Not a lot to say really. It was somewhat easy and there was no real wow moments. Except that the level looked really good. Didn't really like the design of the giant person (not sure really what it/he was suppose to be probably missed that plot detail.) but it seemed kinda clunky and didn't really look like a person.
ADVICE:
Not a lot to give. You added to the replay factor by having players search for prizes which was nice. Played the beta for part two and it seems to be a nice follow up to the first one. I'm not sure if you plan on doing it in the second one but, maybe make it a bit harder. Maybe some eye-popping sequence. I'm sure you have something epic up your sleeve tho.
FINAL THOUGHTS:
Don't have much to say really. Liked the level, you seem to know what your doing with the tools provided so I'm not going to really get in the way. In terms of a score tho I will dock marks (not a lot) for not being overly fun. It's not a level (talking bout the platforming aspect here) that I would talk about at the water cooler tho. The story is top notch and I can't wait for the second act to be finished. Also because it was fairly easy, but well done, i'm not sure how many times I would play it again. It's good for the first time thru tho!
Length: Medium
Difficulty: Easy
