  • I thought the game was vey cute, and whilst the croping job on the game pieces was louzy, the design choices were right for the game and the gameplay! The overall game play is not very challenging but a really good educational tool for just getting to know the human body. The flow of the levels were fun and rewarding and the only bug I had was the game crushing at the final level while using the different X ray mods. with a little work on scaling the difficulty (and a little photoshop), this can become a great, fun, bright learning tool!
  • The use of an X-ray machine as a central mechanic was a very creative and unique idea. Dragging and dropping different parts to the body was oddly calming and zen. The art got the idea across, but it wasn't particularly pleasant to look at. All in all, a great entry and an impressive game to make by yourself in such a short time. Great job!!!
  • The gameplay was smooth although I experiences one crash that ended the session, Also, the stickiness parameters of the elements that are being placed on the body were very forgiving. I could drag and release the element very far away and it would still snap into the correct place. The levels that had books and syringes were buggy. You didn't need to drag them a correct place. Dragging and releasing immediately was enough to progress. Overall the game didn't present a challenge. The level were just work that needed to be done. Maybe if the missing elements weren't colored differently on the body the player might need to search for them. This would increase difficulty but I'm not sure it would increase fun. There level doesn't have any lose scenario. Not amount of guesses before you lose or a time limitation. The X ray functionality was really nice! It's a shame the game didn't make use of that mechanic instead of just being related to the theme. The introduction requiring the player to move the X ray to start the game was a great way of introducing the game's mechanic. Simple, clear and to the point.
