[game, game and again game]

You stole this from Jason Nelson.

heliopod responds:

I am Jason Nelson...see my other games here!

[Failman]

So...there's a guy standing in front of a bank. No instructions or even controls. And no 'hints', even though that box was checked.

Huh.

[Deep State]

UGH. This game needs some serious balancing. Okay, I'm saving up for the Public Surveillance Act, so I do a bunch of Extortion operations; however, my Fear keeps going DOWN, which means I HAVE to keep buying Petty Crime...but each Petty Crime costs $100,000, and each Extortion only adds net $25,000. So I buy 5 Extortions for each Petty Crime and sloooooooowly get my money all the way up to $1,000,000, at about year 21 or so.

...and then I find out that in order to buy the higher money-making operation, I need $1,000,000. In fact I can't even buy another Extortion because I was in such a hurry to do SOMETHING in this stupid game that I only have $24,000 left. Wow, what a waste of half an hour.

[Death by Uranium]

It seems like you have at least the framework of a game here...But, how do I know which squares to click on? How do I avoid uranium? Is there any skill to it, or is it just chance?

[The Blues]

Controls? Instructions?

jrbitt responds:

Sorry. I updated the description
Controls:
Just use the arrows (up,down,left,right)
Use ESC to finish the game

[Flying Pigs]

I can't figure out how the wormholes work. I place them in all sorts of places but nothing gets teleported or whatever. I guess this game really is too hard for me.

deathink responds:

Sorry my man, one should pull the cube in, and one should spit it out.

[ZOID]

Technically this more of a Breakout than a Pong game.

IndoorOrnithology responds:

Yeah, I wasn't really sure which to describe it as, because "single player pong" and "breakout without blocks" both make almost no sense from a gameplay perspective. I eventually decided to compare it to pong because it seemed a bit more iconic, but you bring up a fair point.

[Skullz]

You know, I wanted to like this, but it just takes...so...LONG. Like the bit where you have to keep looking at the castle, and it...scrolls...up...and...then...scrolls...down...and then when you "GO" you're in almost the same area, so you have to look at the castle again and it...scrolls...up...and...then...scrolls...down...and then you get into this area where you slowly...fall...down...and have to talk to various skulls, or maybe they aren't skulls, maybe it's all a dream but who really cares at this point, and then you get a bit farther and get sent back to slowly...fall...down...

Honestly, I wasted WAY too much time on this.

Pizzamakesgames responds:

I'm sorry that you didn't enjoy yourself. You're right, it is slow. It's not an action game, just a simple little adventure. Hopefully I'll be able to bring a little more action into whatever comes next. Thank you for the input though!

[Office Gaming Inception]

It's a great idea, and mostly it's good, but it's basically impossible to control. I mean, you have to control your hands with keyboard AND mouse, and coordinate them to move a character who moves IN the game to press keys to move ANOTHER character...@_@ This is the kind of game you play for five minutes, go "Haha, interesting!" and then go on to something less frustrating.

[Galactic NEON]

It's very well done...but it quickly becomes impossible to see what's going on. And the controls are kind of, 'floaty' I guess...When you try to get a powerup you often overshoot, then you pull back and overcorrect, then you overshoot again, and you just end up circling around and around...
