Hm, I totally forgot about this, but I feel disclined to participate because I don't feel like signing up for things and I'd rather work as much as I can towards a full release anyways. =P
I'm gonna try to review as many game releases as I can
I just want to whine about how I died 20 minutes into Lucadia. I kind of like how there weren't any random encounters, but those monsters were just too quick for me. I ended up fighting every monster on every map and ran out of MP and most of my healing items right before the boss battle. It was a rather pointless struggle, really. I healed and attacked but attacks deal 30 damage (the girl's dealing 0) while spells deal something like 125 damage. So I died. Whiiiiiiiiiiiine.

Oh and it bugs me how after I've cleared a map of monsters they reappear if you enter the cooking or the crafting menus.
I just finished DOAD, apparently it's a 30-1hr long, you can level up to balance the game out. There's actually puzzles this time D:

And, DEATH COUNT DEATH COUNT DEATH COUNT!!!!!!!!!!!!!

But this is just me because Death so loves me in this game. X + C cancels charge but this is a script thing that Skie can't fix =w=. What else...Nice plot twist haha. Graze is very useful...seriously. And beat this game at lvl 1, but the higher the level the more easier it is I think '3'b

I'll definitely fix that cooking and crafting menu asap. As for the spells, they shouldn't be dealing that much damage. I'll check it again just to make sure.
That was either Bace's or Vince's fire spell, I don't really remember. Btw, I reviewed your game, but dunno when it'll show up.
I just started on DOAD, and I've got to say that it's deinfitly a great looking game. The character portraits are beautiful and full of color, and the artist definitly deserves two thumbs up for the great artwork present in the game. Also, the gamplay is also very fun yet a tad hectic. It's also a tad difficult in the beginning, in my opinion. The enemies just seem to love to team up and RAPE you violently until you suddenly find yourself dead. I think it could do without a few of those enemies, just make things a bit more fun and less difficult.

Spell animations are nice, and they actually seem to fit in there unlike a lot of the other ABS games for VX/XP I've seen (where they are noticeably out of place...or at least to me they are). I haven't really made it all that far (because death loves me), but thus far its a wonderful looking game that is quite fun to play!
I need to play that game, but I have a mild case of anime!girls phobia.

Play it. It's like sky-diving. The only scary part is taking that one step into open air, then you'll be too busy screaming to remember what you were afraid of. :D
Don't know if we post this here but I found a bug in Neo Lescia Lennon game.

A part from this, up where I am, it's great.

I hope it will continue soon hehe

I'm curious as to what it is, I thought it was bug free after my zillion reduxes! :)

Please post any bugs in the gamepage comments though.
Oi. Well I just finishd DOAD, and what I've got to say is...it was quite an enjoyable experience! I didn't really like the puzzle rooms, as my own stupidity caused me to become easily frustrated. However, once I was (finally -.-) able to catch on, it quickly began to pick its self up again and the game once again became extremely enjoyable.

The story was a tad...odd. Fun, but odd. It was certainly a rather creative tale...but it was also one that didn't really tickle my fancy. Hrm...I don't really know how to say it, but it felt as though a lot of odd things were being thrown at me all at once, and then as quickly as that wave of confusion had come it vanished until I was lead up to another boss fight.

Oh! And speaking of boss fights, there was one boss that REALLY annoyed me, and that was the witch(?) near the end. Dear god...my mind is terrible! But anyway, she was the one that sprayed out a TREMENDOUS amount of energy balls in a cross-like pattern. It really lagged me up, and I was barely able to move.

Other than that, it's a great game and I truly reccomend it if you want a bit of fun! =O

Now...what's next...
How do you save a HTML document. Every time I save it and upload it on the downloads page and test it out, I get an error page saying this

" You're seeing this error because you have DEBUG = True in your Django settings file. Change that to False, and Django will display a standard 404 page. "

Can any one help me out?

I'm trying to upload a download, and I guess when a download is more than 100MB, you have to upload a HTML File
Happy

I begun by starting with Neo Lescia. I'm impressed by the presentation by so far, everything is pretty polished and smooth - even though I haven't got to fight any battles yet, whatsoever. Though I'm already stuck. I can't figure out the code to change the direction of the conveyor belts.

You can watch my new game's opening cutscene to kill like 5 minutes or so...

I wonder what I should play first
GameOverGames
Here's my last minute (i.e. made up on the spot) release, a logic puzzle:

The Warrior says the Mage lies. The Mage says the Thief lies. The Thief says that both the Mage and Warrior lie.

Warrior is (lying, telling the truth)
Mage is (lying, telling the truth)
Thief is (lying, telling the truth)
Spoiler, Highlight Text To Read:

Warrior is lying (thus he knows the Mage is telling the truth). Mage is telling the truth (thus he knows the thief is lying). The thief is lying (because the mage is telling the truth, thus the statement "both the Mage and the Warrior lie" is a lie) .

I like logic puzzles!

EDIT:
GRS beat me to it.
Can someone approve my gamepage so I can upload it on time?
