I figured I would throw my hat into the review ring and see what happens!

My review structure will be pretty simple, I give a summery then break it down into different catagories each with their own rating such as Fun Factor, visuals, originality and stuff like that and give a grade of 1 to 10 at the end and yes I will post pictures


I just ask not to instantly swamp me with requests LOL I don;t have unlimited amounts of time unfortunatly but will try not to lalagag on requests.

REVIEW

Find the Key Mini game

PSN airators-707


Well this certainly was an interesting level for my first review simply because its not really a level but a concept. I really don't know what that means but I assume he has ideas to make a real full level with the same concept and this was his test level because the idea itself has potential. You are in a small room and must find several small keys and most are very easy to find, they are behind walls or in little drawers that you must pull out. This could be a very interesting and fun thing to do in large level with a house, garden or whatever setup where you must explore and find hidden things. Here though it takes about less then five minutes to find the keys and then there is nothing to do but kill yourself so you can go to the exit. When you do win a door opens up with a large amount of bubbles and my problem with this is that its always the same amount of bubbles so most who win have around the same score and there is really no challenge to take the board and so this does not really work as a little challenge either but it is called a "mini-game" and I suppose it works as that but a mini-game should be featured in a level and not by itself.



sack-boy in= Tron 2: virtually bored!


Game play : 3

There really is not much game play here, just search a small room and find keys which are very easy to find.

Originality: 5

I think this concept is solid and interesting enough, he just needs to make a real level out of it

scenery: 5

The main room has a nice futuristic look to it which is interesting and does not hurt the eyes

Level Design: 4

Not much to the level since there are two rooms in all but some of the little compartments the keys are hidden in are nicely made and show off the potential for this kind of level

Fun Factor:3

Well a mini-game by itself that takes 3 minutes and consists of finding easy keys really is not all that fun

Final Grade+ X

Since this is only a "concept" and not a "real" level I decided not to give it a grade heh maybe this is a cope out, I will leave that up to you to decide but the score I would of given it would have been really low and sense its just a "test" I figured there was no need to be harsh.
