Jam Judge

1. Enjoyed: The ambiance of the game was very fitting with what I believe the developers were trying to get across. I think the art style was very appropriate and the audio really enhanced the mood. I also enjoyed the variety of scenes with the animals that were used to describe emotions.


2. Improvement: There seemed to be some issues with the runes. I was never able to get the 'Sadness' runes to show, and had to guess where I believe they spawned in order to pick them up. Also saw the same issue where if you dropped runes, they follow you, and if you picked up another rune, it wouldn't take over the empty spot but replace another rune. This caused a bit of confusion when trying to complete some of the letters because my first guess would be incorrect and I couldn't go back and correct it without running into this issue.

I really like how much thought was put into the story aspect of this title and as a result would nominate this game for the 'Writer' category.

1. Enjoyed: The story that the narrative is trying to get across is interesting. The background pictures and sounds really fit well within one another and add to the spooky theme with the witch.  I love the different animals and scenes that depict the emotion of the rune being displayed. 

2. Improvement: The runes glitch and follow the character on the screen when you drop it on the ground.  I got stuck on trying to figure out what to do after collecting certain combinations for the brewing pot; having specific instructions would be highly beneficial. 

This game would be my choice for the Writer. It has a semblance of a plotline to follow by completing the activity.
