Upgrading to 3
After reviewing 50 games, I decided this is at least a 3. Basically, I have given very few 1s...It isn't fair to give a 1 to someone that honestly tried, but just didn't have the programming chops to do well. So I'm giving LOTS of 2s, and this game is a lot better than those.
"Intentionally Challenging" is an understatement
I never got CLOSE to winning. I never got within 50% of winning.
On the other hand, I LOVE your art, and the button-mashing gameplay is actually fairly engaging. The fact that "extinction" is on in the same order on the keyboard as it is in the word totally flumoxxed me. :)
Fair enough
Sure it's hard, that's how I make 'em. See notes and description - try it with more than one person (concept - conservation by one, impossible, conservation by many a bit more doable). Have each person tap their own key. I was never very explicit about that, but I was also pretty exhausted from the weekend.
Pat on Back
hmm, maybe if I start voting, others will follow :) Try it with multiple players to make the game easier. It takes more than one person to "save the environment" :)
