Sol (PC) Review

Developer: Not a Sock Games

  Sol (PC) (619.4 KiB, 1,168 hits)

Game by Not A Sock Games, made with Game Maker.

Overview:

No, this game is not called Shit Outta Luck. Its short for Solar System Simulation, which is what it is…a simulation of the solar system. This is supposed to be the basis for the game Resilience.

Graphics:

The graphics in this game are nothing more than a few dots and some text.

Sound:

No sound to be heard. This gives a very realistic viewpoint to the simulation, because in space you can’t hear any music. Wouldn’t it be great though if you can go at lightspeed while listening to Britney Spears? Eh? Eh? How about it?

Gameplay:

Only two things to do…zoom in…and zoom out. Look what you can find if you zoom out for 10 minutes!:

Crappiest Part:

The sun is so small…I wanna see the burning chaos that is our sun. There should be a laser coming off the sun that you could shoot down planets with…! but then it wouldn’t be a solar system simulation then…

Overall Score:

This is a simulation of the solar system. There really isn’t that much you can expect from something like this. Though it could have gotten a little more detail and be a little more exact to what it actually is, it still is something that you can show your science teacher and say “look what I have that is better than having you explain it with your fingers!” It gets a:

8/10

Resilience (PC) Review

Developer: Not a Sock Games

  Resilience (PC) (1.3 MiB, 1,180 hits)

Game by Not A Sock Games, made with Game Maker.

Overview:

Ok….i’m not sure what you’re supposed to do, but you’re in a space ship, going around the solar system…and you have weapons that don’t destroy anything

Graphics:

The graphics are ok. you can tell the planets are the actual things…

Sound:

The spaceship…sounds like what spaceship would probably sound like, but that’s why its probably better to play this game with the speakers off…

Gameplay:

uhhhhhh i dont like it too much. sometimes i’m not sure if i’m going toward the planet or away from it.

Crappiest part:

How it takes so long to get to a planet, and once you do get there, you dont know what to do.

Overall Score:

i gave it a 7/10, because the stats kept me interested for 10 seconds.
