My first video game!

[janevblagoj]

Hello!
Quite a while I’m working on my product “Poppy and Rose” which you can download it here: http://www.download.com/Poppy-And-Rose/3000-2111_4-10638405.html?tag=lst-0-3
The game is made in the program language Delphi 6 and I hope that it will take your attention.
Please, after you try the game and study it a little bit, if you can answer the following questions:
- How can I find a video game tester, the best case is that to be some volunteer who will test the game and it will give me critics about the game.
- How is your opinion for the essential value of the game?
- What do you think about the UI of the game (it is made in Delphi 6), can I make it better and can I get some suggestions of how can I do that?
- In which category will you put this game (maybe puzzle!)?
- Is there any company that in cooperation with me can commercialize the game?
- I think that playing on this video game in network can be a real challenge! Do you think same?

Thank you,
Janev Blagoj

Cool game. One thing I have a problem with is I was confused about what I was doing at first. I didn't know what the buttons on top were there for as I was trying to type my name in and press enter to start the game. I didn't even know what the game was about. I would consider changing the interface totally and giving some sort of instruction on how to play the game so the player doesn't have that lost feeling.

In terms of the interface I'd take the attention a bit less off the graphic and more on the buttons you need to press to begin the game. Maybe have a start game button and then have a new window pop up with the option that says with repeating numbers and without repeating numbers. Once the player selects their game the window closes and the game window appears. This would keep the player from getting confused.

Pretty graphics are great but pretty graphics that have a use besides just looking pretty are what you should be shooting for. I think the player should open the game, find everything they need easily and know what the game is about before they start playing the game.
