Your opinions:

Croftstorm at NewGrounds.com:
I thought it was excellent. I get bored very quickly, but I played (and enjoyed) this right till the end. The gameplay was simple but varied enough, and ran exceptionally smoothly. Your graphics are fantastic, I love how you drew the freaks, some great designs. I especially liked the floaty thing with two heads and the big walking one. I can’t really think of any negative points, so this gets a straight 10. Nice work.

Half-Breed at NewGrounds.com:
I must say this game was pretty good, I say this because I usually don’t play a platformer for more than 5 min. You have to remember I grew up in the 80s when almost every game was a platform hopping adventure. So the fact I played it for as long as I did is a complment to you. Those monsters were kick-ass. I like the bouncing moons and that big blue guy that burps out flying luggie monsters.

HyperYoshi at NewGrounds.com:
That was a pretty good game! It was too long for me, but it was still a good game. The monsters were kool, and I was happy that when you died you lost points rather than lives (lives drive me crazy) It should have been more fast-paced – I lost interest pretty quickly. Keep up the good work!

Now this one is different story than yesterdays’s game (Aviator). In this one I didn’t change graphics, but the gameplay. To a dull game of collecting acorns via driving your car I added four power-ups, which change the gameplay into something a bit more entertaining. Still a classic 2005 way of thinking though. Don’t expect any fantastic gameplay that will blow your mind.

Another thing – this one is significant, it’s THE LAST squirrel game that waited for revision (until today). That’s it. The remaking process is done. Finished. Only new stuff from now on. Expect mind-blowing gameplays next year :D. I counted 30 games alltogether, some of them are retouched, others completely redone – you can play’em all on pastelgames.com naturally. Ok then, onto 10 Gnomes 10…

I looked through pastel stories archives and didn’t find any indication that this game was ever released. Strange. It’s an old game, from 2005, so don’t mind the ‘easy as hell’ gameplay (some of you might even say it’s boring). But to bring that game to SOME decent level of quality today I upgraded the graphics and changed music and sound effects. So, collect acorns and avoid enemies… – ideas for gameplay were soo easy back in a day. :D

This one is a simple reload. No changes made to the actual gameplay, changed just graphics and main api, so the game is pausable, quittable and saveable scorable. ;)

the squirrel goes scuba in this underwater fish hunt. Watch out for falling snails and the octopus.

collect as many nuts as you can, but these are tough times, as the room gets more crowded with every single nut collected. Use star power up to make some room.

Thanks to reloading this game gained: six characters to choose from, option to choose control method (keys or mouse) and some fast music background.

It’s summer time. It’s so hot out there that grilled chicken legs are falling right from the sky. With that said – one question remains – what does that mean machine’s janitor do with the grill here? The answer seems obvious…

p.s. – finally after four years my “Four Seasons” game tetralogy is finished and I can feel fulfilled. :D

It’s springtime in squirrel land. Time of joy, renewed hope for a good year and fierce beetle eating. Plants are growing everywhere, sun is shining, snow came down from the mountains… But what’s up with that winter’s mean machine janitor and his fireballs? Wait, what?…

If you happen to not score good points in Autumn, here’s your chance to make some more rations for winter chill, as we approach the mean machine and it’s frozen acorns. Catch’em all, but watch out for the machine’s janitor, he’ll try to scare you away with snowball, but we all know that won’t do any damage. Or will it?…

It’s autumn in squirrel land and it’s highest time to make some rations for that upcoming winter. Collect as many acorns as you can and don’t forget to catch them clocks for extra time. Once again – fully reloaded game, only acorns and original hero survived the time test. :D

tribal jump didn’t really need reloading, exept for better graphics and a new API. The gameplay is exactly the same, so if you happen to have played this game before – you can just feast your eyes on new graphics, or you can do that via picture above. Hmm… Anyway – just go and play and make it to the leaderboard :D
