My Gamechef entry was peer-reviewed, which is very cool. Mostly nice stuff was said, with some obvious omissions being pointed out.
Unfortunately my 'humour' offended the reviewer a little. This was something I didn't even think about when I was writing the game and drawing the characters - well, it did occur to me when I drew one of the German henchmen doing a NAZI style salute, but he was the 8th henchperson I drew and I wanted to incorporate some variety in the poses, so I thought 'what the hell'.
I also noted that the horny monkey style quote for the Chinese-monk-gone-bad got an incredulous reaction from Idiot, which made me think about how someone from outside my regular gaming group might react. Sometimes I forget that my sense of humour, though not that different to many gamers', is occasionally a little odd.
The review lives on the forums of one thousand monkeys, one thousand typewriters, under Game Chef 2005, here.
