Best Games of November Review! (with video feedback)

Posted by FutureCopLGF - December 9th, 2021



Every month I see to review all of the games that were nominated as the Best of that month, which you can view in the link above!


As a game developer myself, I know how difficult it can be when you are starting out and how tricky it can be to tell how your game will be received by users. After all, you know how your game is meant to be played, and you can't just wipe that from your memory when you're building and testing it!


Therefore, I record myself playing all of the games for the first time for 10-15 minutes and try to voice how I'm feeling when I'm playing it, so that developers can see how a user might experience their game for the first time, especially for things like tutorials. I also try to provide some advice as well, but it might not always be the best: what I'm really hoping is that developers can draw their own conclusions on what might need work from how I stumble through their game.

While all of these games were the best of the month...


MY PERSONAL ARBITRARILY-RANKED TOP 10 GAMES OF THE MONTH


My Top 10 was (in sort-of ranked order and based on my own criteria which is some weird sense of 'memorability' for me personally and totally subject to genres I like and I don't feature an author twice even if they had two good entries so as to spread the love etc etc):












And here are some Honorable Mentions (games that were close contenders for the top, additional games from an already highlighted dev this month, games that are still demos but promising, games that are clones of existing games but still good, etc):










Thanks to all the portal warriors that sifted through all games to find the best in the bunch for me to check out in the first place! And as always, even if your game wasn't listed by me personally, hold your head high as I enjoyed playing all of them nonetheless as they are, after all, the best of the month!


This one's coming atcha pretty late: got sick with some sorta flu right when the review period started so I was outta commission. Could've keep me down forever though: make sure you get your shots, everyone, and stay safe!


Here's another tune I can't get outta my head!

Finally! The Game Awards started!

Grandpa's Minigun it's just too good.

Thank you for your review, as my first game everything was a little experimental but the muted tone of Forest Shack was intentional. It is meant to slowly lead the player into a sense of simple familiarity that suddenly gets broken.

I tried to tell the story through the gameplay. That said you played it just before I made the crosshairs bigger in celebration of our ten thousandth player!

And I am glad it managed to spark your interest at the end.

For Forest Shack 2, your main complaints are exactly what I am currently working in, readability of actions and the user interface, visual effects for the combat and skills. But my main efforts are being spent in designing a more intense combat system with more depth to it.

If you ever play the sequel, I hope that it better manages to capture your interest.

Have a good night.

Thx a lot for playing Gombi-action!
The point system was very wonky in the video and I'm glad I fixed it up haha
Never thought that silly little game would've been in the top ten!

@toffeescoffes @GabeMalk :3

Glad you liked CCMMYY despite the color confusion which I could have explained a bit better.

Thanks for playing Ringwaves! Though I must apologise for the bright level transition. It looked like it was burning your eyes out. Anyway, it's always nice watching people play, and it's really helpful too!

thanks for the feedback! by the way, the previous version of the game was with islands :D (I have it on my page)
