Catter (PymArchive) Review
Category: Game
- Nice intro.
- Has helpful instructions.
- It's a good touch that the difficulty increases.
- Loading ball is a nice touch.
- “Do you want to keep playing?” Pop-up is a nice touch.
- Perhaps try to find a more creative solution than using the “say” block to communicate with the player.
- The thumbnail could perhaps be improved; maybe use an uploaded font?
- I would suggest using non-default Scratch sprites next time.
- Maybe have “loading” under the ball?
- Perhaps have a more interesting “Play” button that stands out from the background.
Overall, it is a new take on a classic game. With some minor improvements it will be a simple, pleasing and entertaining game to challenge players and kill time.

Catter by Python_megapixel:
Gameplay: 9.3/10 it was very good. My character glitched once in a while, but it was fine.
Instructions: 10/10 they were very detailed and explained a lot.
Color: 9.7/10 the color was sooooooooo goooooooood. Although a couple times I lost focus I need the game.
Controls: 9.1/10 very simple and easy to understand. Although the arrow keys are positioned awkwardly on my keyboard.
Movement: 9.9/10 my character glitched every 10 minutes or so, but otherwise it was great!
Overall: 38/40 (very good!)
Overall comment: a great, simple game, perfect for people new to computer gaming, easy to understand and needs little revision.
Suggestions: a little revision, but that’s it. I was playing on a slow computer though, so these problems aren’t on most computers.

• Project Review - Catter by python_megapixel
Type : Game
Graphics { 3/10 }
Description :
- Artwork of sprites lack originality, and very contrasting styles.
- The main menu is quite dull and plain.
- Despite that, the intro is very simple and clean.
- No project thumbnail.
Coding and Mechanism { 8/10 }
Description :
- Very good coding for sensor sprites.
- The loader is very convenient.
- A very unique popup.
- Increasing difficulty—a good touch.
- An interesting point system, well programmed.
- Messy blocks, and some codes don't function properly, resulting in glitches.
- Movement of player sprite is too fast and sudden.
Controls and Concept { 7/10 }
Description :
- Controls are simple, but take a while to get used to.
- A simple game concept with a clear goal.
- Well-explained instructions.
Music and Audio { 9/10 }
Description :
- Lovely music for the intro and the gameplay!
- Though the music for the gameplay doesn't seem to match with the game's dynamics.
• Overall Score { 7/10 } ENJOYABLE ! •
Suggestions :
Make it look more attractive : Draw or get your own sprites to suit the whole graphic theme.
Make the buttons interactive : Have different costumes for hover and click.
Make the loader more recognizable (make it look like a loader) or place a ‘Loading…’ text anywhere near the loader so players don't get confused.
Make the player sprite movement slower and smoother. Also add extra walking cycle costumes to make the sprite more dynamic.
Clean up the coding blocks inside the game for convenience of yourself or remixers.
Have a thumbnail for your project. Make your own or have someone to make one for you. This will make your project look more attractive and give a good impression.
Make the purple fish silent (stop giving instructions) after the player finishes the first ‘level’
The music used for the gameplay is fine, but make sure to make the feel of the game more dynamic when playing. Otherwise, have a more calm soundtrack for the gameplay.

If I'm bored, these are the kinds of games I would definitely be looking for. Simple, relaxing and fun!
