Certainly more fun than "questing" on zombie jombie! I wish there was more of a story to keep me wanting to move forward in the game."},{"author_name":"johnfn","author_uid":"3187","time":"Aug 28, 2012 @ 4:00am","epoch":1346126100,"text":"That was oddly fun. Choosing different paths didn't seem to make any difference, and getting items didn't seem to do much either... but I still found this game strangely fun. With some more gameplay work this could be pretty good. Your dev art was pretty cute for being dev art ;)"},{"author_name":"2Creative","author_uid":"15700","time":"Aug 28, 2012 @ 4:27am","epoch":1346127720,"text":"I found interesting the idea of \u200b\u200btaking different directions and evolve with your character accordingly.

My favorite character is the spiky-looking rodent enemy.\r\rHalfway through, I realized you could pick the "You've encountered..." box and place it elsewhere on the screen. I put it in enemies' mouths and atop Gregor's beefy evolved arms, among other places. :P\r\rAlso, I'm glad Gregor can't die, or I never would have defeated any of the dragons.

There are still some bugs, and I didn't get to implement a lot of things I had planned. On the other hand, my dev art is probably the most amazing thing in the universe. So there's that.\r\n\r\nIssues: \r\n- You can't die, so don't worry about that (bonus feature! ship it!)\r\n- You can, however, reach the end of the (small) universe and get stuck. Avoid this by advancing slanty-wise instead of straight forward, or occasionally running away.\r\n- Once you evolve to the Adult size and evolve traits 3 times, you can't apply more (but you'll still see the evolve screen a couple more times)\r\n- One of the later monsters will pretty much always kill you. Good thing you can't die!\r\n- Sounds never did make it in. :(\r\n- and many more\r\n\r\nTools: Unity, Orthello 2D, Photoshop CS5, Wacom tablet. Of the 4, I had never used any but photoshop. I learned a lot this weekend.<\/p>","title":"Gregor the Grogre"}
