OVERALL 85/100

Comments: A good idea for a simulation for an unofficially released game. Though it could use a title screen with maybe a bit of animation and info, instead of having it in the project notes (not everyone reads that  tongue ). There was a small glitch where sometimes when you restart the game the fly spat is still there and doesn't hide. I think also it steers to right to much and you should maybe decrease it by about 20%. Overall all the game needs to be perfect is a title screen and some extra features, like an animation and background info!

Comments: It's an ok game. It could've been made longer. The scrolling system was slightly messed up. It could have used a title screen and a plot. Not much else to say, apart from that the game needs to be worked on...

Re: Most Trusted Scratch Reviewer. Reviews For Everything!!!

Would you be able to rate the first two of these (I'm not sure if the first long is long enough for you to have reviewed it deep enough, but I had to make them short so people could learn easier)

Python Lesson 1
Python Lesson 2

Thanks!

Can you move Generation:4001 into simulations please? It might do better there

Re: Most Trusted Scratch Reviewer. Reviews For Everything!!!

hmm  Simulation... Yeah maybe, but I am sure you won't score as much as in games. That's because of the Accuracy and clarity... But it's your project, so I'll move it there. Do you also wish to move the other Generations?

Comments: A  brilliant, simple game! It still could use some work on the layout and graphics, maybe a title page. It could use a plot for perfection. Not much to say there, maybe more complicated levels (I only died once)? Overall I liked the game... Now on to number 2!

were there any others? and if it scores less, then put it back before you delete the old review! i'd still like to keep the simulations review too though

by the way, what's wrong with accuracy? it is accurate in a lot of ways, it might be that I need to make an in-game tutorial instead of an external one so people know how to build their cities properly

Clarity: yeah, either that or in the bank you label the top: GOOD PROFIT and the bottom BAD PROFIT.

Accuracy: 1 house costs like 10$ to buy one, theme park 120000$??? I think it's all underpriced.

I wouldn't want to move it back, as it actually is a simulation concerning it simulates building a city. I'll regrade again.

Comments: Slightly better. The game is still good and I like it that you included more difficult levels. Though the game still needs a plot. There was a small glitch when you press left the character points right. Overall this game is very good and is on top of the list!

but a shooting game simulates a firing range/violent place, a pacman game simulates a pacman maze whilst simulating ghosts, and a fishing game simulates fish and the rod and a racing game simulates a racing track and a car! everything simulates!

Your game is really like a Sims game, which in my opinion is short for Simulation. + Be happy that you got a higher score than before.

Re: Most Trusted Scratch Reviewer. Reviews For Everything!!!

Can you be bothered to put G:3000 into simulations? and what exactly does clarity mean, I couldn't work out what it had to do with money

Re: Most Trusted Scratch Reviewer. Reviews For Everything!!!

I just put 3000 in there. All of the projects got a higher score. Clarity is how clear it is. To me it was very unclear how to get a positive profit and in the comments I saw that players were experiencing this too. I think it would've been more clear in the bank area it tells you that the green gives you a positive profit and red decreases it.

I presumed red and green were obvious, and you do have your advisor! If you are running low, I'm sure he says "lay more zones!" only if you're extremely in the red does he say "cut back on spending" I'd recommend building lots of zones, then worrying about services later.

Re: Most Trusted Scratch Reviewer. Reviews For Everything!!!

I didn't really understand what he meant in cut back on spending. I understood to stop buying, but that doesn't stop the profit from being negative. I never understood then that the 'zones' were actually houses and shops. I saw a lot of people experiencing this. Maybe you can have the advisor say instead, "Buy more houses and stores!"

Comments: It's a very good idea for a contest, even though it doesn't require a lot of art. You could have made it perfectly clear by making an example instead of writing it in text. It was a bit fun and maybe you could've supplied the user the sprites to use instead of the user drawing and writing them down. Overall I liked the contest and participated in it as well!

Yeah, I will be adding the proper main menu and I will allow users to add their name to the game so it is displayed in the bus and also a high score table! I will tell you when I'm done
