I felt like I was playing a commercial?

Gotta love government initiatives to get down with the new generation :D

.

Ummm...what is this? I get the plot, but you've created a character that would have gotten fired the day they started work. Also, this is basically a big giant advertisement.

P.S. Almost nobody would find that T-Shirt funny.

It was actually pretty good, but I had to rate it lower because it wasn't finished.

this kinda was a boring story to me, but was interesting to say the least. 4/8

I can't say whether I like it or not, since it isn't finished.

I am confused about what is going on as well. I am guessing Ofsted is some big examination that the schools go through? I realize this is just a trial, but it seems like more should happen.

it's ok. Too many off-site links.

I found the blue key and let the selwyn out, but nothing happened. I don't think this game was good enough to be featured.

I don't get it....

I really don't understand what's going on. What's Ofsted? What's a practical? I bet I would like this game better if you explained a little more at the beginning.

Pretty fun. I'm still not understanding what OfSTED is, though.

I've just emailed you with some more scenarios for you to include in your story. Thought it was a great game. Keep up the good work.
I also enjoyed whack-a-miner at milksnatcher.com

Great idea. Goint to buy a Maggie Thatcher T-shirt now from www.maggiethatcher.com

I thought it was spot on. I've got Ofsted due at any minute and had a chuckle. I'm going to send you some more scenarios and I'm buying a 'How's my teaching' T-shirt from www.ofstedinside.com

I love it, reminds me a bit of one of those adventure 'puter games from when I was little. I like being able to collect things too, can't wait for chapter 2!
:O)

wasnt that bad, it was actually kinda good.

I really enjoyed playing this game. Thought some of the scenarios were just right. I'm emailing you some more ideas. Can't wait until it's finished. I will return. Bought a 'How's my teaching' t-shirt too.

Not bad - has potential. Scenarios should include non-specialist in practical lessons like music who keep wandering around saying 'Don't they get to use headphones?' when the children are using acoustic instruments (yes it happened to me!). Also a networked bush telegraph of pupils sending messages to other staff to warn them of inspectors approaching. Twists could include discovering that the Head has stuffed you in the self-evaluation document, using a cover supervisor as a 'get out of inspection free' card if you accumulate enough points/things in the inventory and the ability to mutate into a lay inspector?

Thought it was spot on. I'm emailing you some more ideas from an inspection we had last week.

Pointless. 3/8

It is better the second time so I rated it higher. You know how to make it really high. Have it so that there is a score feature.

I enjoyed playing the start of your game. Took me a while to release Selwyn from the cupboard. You need the Ornate key and need to bribe the students with Benson and Hedges. I didn't realise at first you click on the object to pick it up and use it. Can't wait for Chapter 2.

Brilliant. I could see elements of myself in the character. I think I found all the items. I used the Mints, I let Selwyn out and got the blue key. I used the ornate key. Can't wait for the next installment. Education, Education, eduction! I'll be sending you some anecdotes to add by email.

Thought it was spot on!

very great start. You did a good job for a demo. I don't think I am fully finished with every path. Oh well, I'll check it out when it is finished. I can't wait for the roaming "monster"

Very Very good, I'd say that you are probably my third favorite rookie I've seen.

1. (Whoever made Welcome to Pablos)
2. Leon101 (When he made his debut)
3. You
4. Metsrock2

It was alright.

A good start, interseting to see school from a different perspective.

It's okay, but there aren't enough options, and it could be funnier. Don't ask me how, I'm not a comedian. Perhaps you could do something like "you roll into work and your room is: just how you left it; trashed with no blinds left and several chairs overturned; who cares?" I thought maybe you could have more interim options based on what you EXPECT to happen. And the only other thing I have to do is lesson planning. Do I play your adventure game again? Do I fall asleep as I type? Do I go back to TES? Or do I click back onto Excel immediately?
