Can anyone say, Deans list?!

I died when I saw this picture, died..I forgot about it.



I'm the one on the far left...I think we were trying to look tough i guess? Don't remember loool.

Yes, I'm reviewing my own game for one reason: Because I can. I had first joined the team back in late 2007, there was no source when I had joined the team and had begun to program. However, I focused my time on WOTS and ignored the game until February 2009, which was when I was asked to make the game a clone of BLN. Of course, being stupid enough I had actually done it(Which in the long run doomed the game) and here we are now, the game hasn't even been out for a year and a half and it's on the verge of death. But enough with that, let's get onto the review.

Gameplay: Well, it's a PVP Training system with RP concepts, a pretty bad mix in my opinion, but it's what they wanted. The interface is pretty decent and in previous updates, some pretty neat features have been added(This is probably the only reason why it has a score of 6). 6/10

Presentation: The icons aren't that great(bar the turfs) but are 100% original(Credits to Xooxer for the free resources..grass, water, and sand tilesets all belong to him). Some icons are certainly better than others, and the game is presented decently well, especially with the optional tutorial which adds a bit of humor into the game. 7/10

Originality: The game, from programming to pixel art, is 100% original. Not much else to say besides it's a BLN clone and based off of bleach. 8/10

Community: Absoutley terrible. It's a mix of people from finalie and BLN combined. Most of the players are rude to newbies and the GMs suck(And they're probably the best we can get on the server, which is pretty sad). They all whine until they get what they want, which usually never happens. 1/10

Overall: A game just short of decent, and that's because of the fact that it has a terrible, terrible community, a BLN clone(Which if it was my choice, the game would be completly different but that means I'd have to reprogram a lot of stuff which I don't have time to do anymore). The roleplaying is okay, but it easily falls short of good. 6/10

I released the PVP server of BLH three days ago.
