Reviews for PSN Protector

Theme lost

The game is fun and the idea is nice, but the graphics are just so boring. The concept is pretty funny, but that is also the problem of the game. The title implies that the game is a funny reference to the PSN incident, which it clearly is not. It really needs a major injection of humor. For example the upgrades could be themed in a way they fit the whole PSN incident. All in all, the funny stops right after clicking the link to play the game and the game itself turns out to not be related to the theme at all except for there being a black box with PS symbols in the middle.

Kenney responds:

Well ofcourse the black box in the middle is supposed to be the PSN server and the other shapes are hackers (how are you supposed to draw 'hackers'?). The upgrades make sense game wise and aren't witty and confusing. I decided not to add any backstory or expansive instructions because I was aiming for the most simple approach. Sadly, not everyone 'gets' it. Thanks for your review though!

Didn't see that article yet :) Kotaku wrote about it and even some PS3 related sites. That makes me happy :D

Fun game and PSN BEING UP FTW!!!

Fun game, and original game. Now let's see how many more people will make their own versions of this game.

Kenney responds:

I hope none but everyone is welcome to develop further on the idea :)

Not bad not bad at all/

Very good almost as good as that kill osama game.

Kenney responds:

Hah, thanks :) This took 10 times longer to make though...Thanks for the 10!

Funny concept, surprisingly fun gameplay!

Regardless of the actual content, the PSN hack is an amusing concept for a satirical game. Thankfully, you went the extra mile and actually made this entertaining! "PSN Protector" gets very fast and hectic very quickly, leaving me constantly on edge and nervous. The music is very catchy and exciting, too.

However, the fun doesn't really last long; it gets boring rather quickly. Also, it'd be nice if there was more depth to the game - like multiple types of fences, different levels, environmental hazards, and maybe nicer-looking graphics. Of course, implementing such features would take time and make the game less current when it was done.

Kenney responds:

Thanks :) This game was actually meant to be developed in 1 day but I kept adding features which made in into this semi-minigame. I do agree on you that the game is still shallow but that's what it was meant to be. Thanks for your review!
