Review, review
Both of my latest titles have been reviewed by Pocket Gamer and very nice they are, too.
Creebies is closest to completetion and whilst the single comment on the article was less than encouraging, the review itself was unique in the fact that they really got what I was trying to do with it. Creebies is very close to my heart, you see. I think it’s funny, interesting and really quite deep. Deeper than you might think on first glance, that is. I’m also pleased that the reviewer enjoyed the hurdles mini-game, since that’s also my favourite and one I had to fight to keep in its present form (testers considered it too hard). The reviewer also pointed out the tricky issue with regard to audience for Creebies. We’d aimed it at a young, primarily female target market, since that’s what was requested, but of course, that market generally don’t buy the phones that the game runs on! I’m hoping that older girls and women - like me - will also enjoy it.
Yamake is still in production and also got quite a good review, despite the reviewer not being able to make any games. The latest version has some really fun and challenging new quizzes in it. It’s a great title to bring out at the pub or when traveling with friends. I predict it will do well! I hope!
