comments:i would just like to say that seiklus is a great game. i anticipate a great turn out by velella too. ambleek kind of seems bleek now, but im sure it will be a great game. i might suggest if you make a seiklus 2, please keep the inability to die, which makes it a captivating, relaxing game. also, please keep all the tricky problems but make them different. keep the dude small too. if you make a seiklus 2, i don't want the same game just in a different arrangement. thanks for making an amazing game!

It's a mindblowing game, especially for a first Game Maker project! Your games are true works of art. I can't wait until Velella and Avaus are done!

A MEME TO ALL HUMAN TO HUMAN KIND WORLDWIDE

We know it exists today because so many of us have personally experience it and speak about it with face to face language. We have it, but it has an unusual characteristic that provides no means of a historical chronicle should it decay to ruins. It is silent to our ears; no audio recording can exist. It is invisable to our eyes; no photographs can be taken. Can't touch it, no smell or taste. It does exist and what exists around our world usually follows either natural effects of time decay and withering away by accidental or hostile acts of destruction. Should it disappear it will be lost.

What is Meme?

: Meme
: Sigil (magic)

Examples of memes include melodies, icons, fashion statements and phrases.

meme: (pron. 'meem') A contagious idea that replicates and is passed on from mind to mind. Memes function the same way genes do, propagating through communication networks and face-to-face contact between people. The root of the word "memetics," a field of study which postulates that the meme is the basic unit of cultural evolution.

comments:I'm a big fan of Seiklus. It's so fantastic that you chosed to focus on the atmosphere in your game, rather than the gameplay like most people do.

Your game is truly a piece of art, and I'd recommend it to anyone who can actually enjoy it for that. I'm currently creating my fifth game called "within a deep blue forest". The progress is at 80%, and screen shots is avalible at http://mas3.ni2.se (the earlier games are downloadable trough my website). Seiklus have inspired me to create some of the places you will see in my new game.

Thanks! You're a great inspiration!

Seeing your infatuation with NES music, I strongly urge you get The Advantage's self titled city. They cover some the NES' finest tunes, and they do in a way that is very lowfi and very true to the original form. Definitely the best NES music adaptations I ever heard. You should check it out.

comments:Tapeworm, I wrote a review about Seiklus, hope you like it. :)

Seiklus

This is an adventure game, where you move a little white stick-man. He was on a cliff with his girlfriend, and then a meteorite crashed the little stick-man down to the land. Now starts your exciting adventure. The whole place is so full of exploring and finding, that you can't stop! In the game you collect small things with different colours. It gets boring sometimes, but because you want to know, what happens in the end, you have to collect them. :)
Graphics were really nicely done, cool shading and really colourful. Really original, too. I didn't see any black contours, but hey, do you see black contours in real life? No. :D It was nice variety. Almost every game has contours, but this didn't. :)
Music - fits really well! Makes you happy, and creates a great atmosphere. You can't tell the feeling with words. You have experience it. Funny sound effects, like the heartbeat in the octopus. :D They sounded real, which is important. The particle effects were cool, they really looked alive. Well, not alive, but smooth. You can play this game a millions of times, but it gets pretty boring, because you know, where is it, and where is that. So, I recommend that you play this once, but play that that time with feeling. Of course, that's just my opinion. ;) Maybe I could play this through again, this is a fun game. :)
The game was laggy in the some places, but that didn't make any troubles. Level design was really good as well. It wasn't made with blocks, it was a real terrain! There were some funny secrets and small details. Controls were easy and useful, so the game was easy to play. And fun. Maybe a little more amazements when you are collecting the coloured things, and this game is amazing!
Overall - don't just read this review! Download it! Play it! NOW! Heh, I love this game. Just try it out, and you are hooked. :)

comments:I've enjoyed your site and haven't even really looked through it all. When I saw the first three listings in your music section, I decided I'd better say hello. PSB is my favorite band and I enjoy Very also..."Yesterday when I was mad" helped to get me through an ardous 6 month deployment on my ship... the words sort of calmed me down when I thought I was truly "prepared to give up everything." Probably my favorite of all is the longer version of "Being Boring" from the B Sides of....what was it...Behavior! Besides from being a great song musically, the words always make me look back on times past with a wistful smile. Anyway, I'm also a New Order fan...is that still cool...again?
Anyway, I won't burden you with anything further, but I'd love to hear from you sometime soon. Take care.
