Why is this so addicting?!

Three commands (up, down and jump), two different objects to avoid,
on a route that never changes (except the order of appearing objects),
but the speed becomes faster and faster.
And this is pretty addicting.
I like this game. It's a true based on reaction game and after a certain time,
your eyes really trippin' balls.
The music is not annoying imo. I think it's pretty useful,
'cause you can tell by the music at which point the turtle becomes faster.
Good work - more simple and addicting stuff like that please. :D

Glad you like my secret formula! Also I'm happy to hear that you appreciate the music as an integral part of the game, that's how I generally treat the music in my games and why I don't usually include mute buttons ;)

Thanks for the review!

Ragdoll Spiderman

Simple, kinda familiar, but still pretty fun.
I really like the mean, stomping chiptune(?) soundtrack.
Controls are easy to handle (if you already played a handful of ragdoll games and know how they interact with your keyboard commands).
Would love to see this concept in a game, where you have to climb up
buildings in a certain time with enemies, traps etc.
Any chance for such game? ;D
Pretty nice game to kill some time.
Good work!

Pixelicious Fun

It seems that flash game with old school flavor are very popular in the NG community and elsewhere on the net.
I'm one of those fans and this game is truly awesome!
The controls are easy, interacting great with mouse and keyboard and the graphic is pretty sweet! Nice story btw.
I just played it two times, but I can tell that this game is very addicting.
Good work!

Not bad

Nice knew concept of tic tac toe.
The first time is really surprising how the table grows and changes his form.
But if you play this game several times and get comfy to the next upcoming shape, I think this game will be really entertaining.
Graphics and music are pretty neutral, but fit the game, 'cause flashy, colorful designs would be distracting.
Good work.

Thanks for the positive words. You've described exactly what I was going for, visually pleasing but not intrusive.

"Alien" meets "Event Horizon" meets "Dead Space"..

...meets "Doom".
This game is a mix between those four.
It's a good science fiction 2D shooter with a horror flavor.
The main tasks are just "find key - kill everything", but the short story
is well executed and the controls are great without any glitches.
I died one time, probably because I wanted to kill 'em all!
But even if you die, you won't get hit by the blues, because there are no things like lives and limited numbers of continues.
Some people might think this is an option to please the less skilled gamers,
but I guess the main idea was, to give everyone a chance to see the whole story. The game art is pretty sweet and there were no lacks.
Of course you should see this entire work!

But if you wanna separate the wheat from the chaff, you can proof your skills by earning all 20 stars. My guess; speed run = finish every level as fast as you can.

Everyone is happy. That's a 10 for sure! :)
Great work!

It was fun.

This game is really a pure fun game, based on a bit reaction and a lot of luck.
At the beginning, it was kinda challenging to earn enough money, ergo fly as far as possible.

I succeed and collected the "Worldsedge" medal, but still had to achieve the "golden shell" (buy everything) medal. So I leveled up everything to get the golden gun (which was missing) faster.
I noticed (later) that the "Worldsedge" medal isn't hard to achieve,
when you've bought the rocket and the tank (or the super canon).
Just shoot diagonally in the air, wait till you get the 800 and press the rocket.
That way you can lean back and easily reach over 200,000 ft without any efforts.
If you finally achieved the golden gun, the game suddenly becomes boring.
While I write this review, my turtle is still flying and already over1,000,000 ft.
Last time it reached 2,118,289 ft (without much attention).

Result: It's really fun at the beginning - but after you've achieved the bigger upgrades, it's just boring (but it was shortly entertaining to try the weapons though).
The graphics are sweet! The game runs very good on my PC (no lag) and the music is good too. The controls work without any issues.
Good work!

Nice one button game

Compared to "One Button Bob", "One Button Arthur is a little bit more complex. The boss is easier though. The music sounds great and the 8 bit-ish graphic looks sweet. Controls are working fine and the tasks are nice to chill and kill some time.
Good work!

Great work!

The game boy-ish graphic looks great and the music is pretty sweet!
Controls and physics working good without any issues.
The gameplay is partially hard but I really enjoyed this game.
Great work!

Not bad

Simple controls and had no issues with it, nice physics, the graphic ain't special, but the game is kinda fun, so I don't bother with that.
Had 3470m on first try and I wish there were a little bit more complexity.
Sometimes you just ran and ran without anything to do, you know.
Beside that, nice work!

Nice

That was infact a pretty nice mini game.
The controls are very simple, the game reacts to my clicks without any delays,
the graphic is good and the music is okay (doesn't annoy).
The only thing I missed was something like upgrades/specials.
Anyway, good work!

Good stuff mate, thanks for the reply. ;)
