Cool idea!

Impressive for your age.

I haven't reviewed a game in a while, and I wasn't going to review this until I read that you are only 11 years old. Wow. That's incredible. I don't think I knew how games were made when I was 11, or what programming was. Could you reply to this review and tell me how you got into making games at such a young age?

Anyway, on to the game. The game is simple and not very original, though it is fun and challenging, and as I said before, for your age, that's incredible.

There are bugs, though. Whenever you click the cookie to go to the next level, your character shoots off in one direction until you press the opposite direction on the arrow keys. Also, clicking the cookie and then moving your right hand onto the keyboard again takes time, and a cookie could have fallen or almost fallen by that time. I would suggest pressing a key (e.g. space) to progress to the next level.

The high score table and medals are impressive features. I was trying to get them in my game but I didn't know how. Would you be able to share your secret? :)

All in all, it is a good game, especially for your age. You just need to fix the bugs.

Creative!

This is a very interesting game....

I don't think I've played anything like this before. In these days where it is becoming increasing difficult to be original, you have done it! You've created a game that is artistic and quite fun.

I do have some criticisms, though. The main one being that the picture that is created at the end isn't very interesting. (Well, mine wasn't anyway, but I don't see how anything interesting could be created as the demons seem to appear in random positions.) As this is the innovative part of the game, I think that you should try to improve this. One way of doing this might be to have a series of levels where, upon completion, an actual meaningful picture would be created (e.g. an apple, face, dog, etc.). To do this, the demons would have to appear in set positions, rather than randomly. I do realize the player wouldn't get a unique picture every time this way, but at least it would be more than some dots on a page.

Also, it's hard to differentiate between the two shades of green. You could have used yellow, brown, black, or so many other colours.

All in all, though, I think it is a very creative and innovative game, and it's very nice to get submissions like this on Newgrounds.

In fact, I already had that idea in mind. But it's not easy to implement, so I decided it isn't worth that hard work. But if you mentioned it, maybe I'll make an upgraded version.
