Test drive a new flash game

[curtisrollo]

Hey friends,

I've made a new flash game based on celebrities and would like people to try it out and see if there's any problems. So please head over to :
http://www.curtisyee.com/celebbday and try it out. It was pictures and everything. Any feedback would be great.

sincerely,
curtis

Pretty awesome game, I played twice and had 91% accuracy, good job man. No kinks that i found in the two games I played

Woo, very nice game, I also really like the design and transitions!
Although there is one thing, I marked that Katey Holmes is older than me and it said that she was born on 1987, which seemed strange to me, so i checked it up and ends up she was born 1978.

Wow, I'm glad you caught that error in the database. Thanks. See, while the game is kinda fun, it's not addictively fun. Any ideas how to lure people in to play longer?

well the problem is that it is dependant upon the age of the user. Unless someone is about 31 there is not a large group on either side. I was born in 1985 and i think out of all the games all of the celebrities were older. Plus all someone has to do to get 100% everytime is to make their age really young or really old.

maybe add a feature like find celebrities with a birthday close to the user's

I woulda played longer if I wasn't at work! lol

Really fun game. Played it over and over...

One thing tho... perhaps make it easier to see if you were right or wrong (maybe give the words 'right' and 'wrong' different colours?)

I liked it though

that's nicely done mate. somehow the sounds really appealed to me. pleasing to the ear. but man, i feel really depressed after that game now. feel old and unsuccesful. :elderly:

Played three times, 50% each time... doesn't say much as they're all Yanks! Only recognise about 10%!!! =)

Maybe a cool alternative would be to s afew rounds: "Could this be your Dad?" and then build a virtual celebrity family. Freaky!
