I'll be reviewing this over the next few days. —Torchiest ^talk_edits 21:19, 10 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Yay thank you. — ΛΧΣ²¹ 21:56, 10 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Before I give a full review, something that I immediately noticed is that the sequel section is very small, and the Thirty Flights of Loving link just points back to that section. Since there's no article for that game, can you add more details about it? You tell us how the game was funded and something about its music, but nothing about its plot or gameplay. —Torchiest ^talk_edits 23:28, 10 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]

GA review – see WP:WIAGA for criteria

This is generally pretty good; there are a few points to fix before it can pass though.

Is it reasonably well written?
A. Prose quality:
I copy edited the article and fixed all the prose problems.

B. MoS compliance for lead, layout, words to watch, fiction, and lists:
Is it factually accurate and verifiable?
A. Has an appropriate reference section:

B. Citation to reliable sources where necessary:
My only problem is that in the development section, you use just one source for the entire thing. Can you find any other sources talking about development?

C. No original research:
Is it broad in its coverage?
A. Major aspects:
As I said above, I'd like to see a little more explanation of the sequel. I also think you need to describe the game's plot, which can probably fit in the gameplay section rather than getting its own, since the game is so short.

B. Focused:
Is it neutral?
Fair representation without bias:
Is it stable?
No edit wars, etc:
Does it contain images to illustrate the topic?
A. Images are tagged with their copyright status, and valid fair use rationales are provided for non-free content:
The screenshot source should not be "myself". I think you should change it to say something like "screen capture from the video game".

B. Images are provided if possible and are relevant to the topic, and have suitable captions:
Overall:
Pass or Fail:
This pretty close, and if you can add another development source, fix the image NFUR, and give more info on the sequel and plot, I think this will be good to go. Until then, it is on hold. —Torchiest ^talk_edits 04:52, 11 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Yay. Well, the game has not a big plot. Its sjut about a spy who has to do missions and nothing else. Nothing complex. let me see if I can add a bit of that. I will do the sequel expansion too. Sadly, I had a rough time finding that dev source; I feel there won't be any other. I will take a look, however. Thank you Torchiest. — ΛΧΣ²¹ 23:56, 11 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Yeah, I know it has very little plot, but you can describe the events, like, you poison a drink, you shoot some birds, you chase someone at the end, etc. If you can't find another source for development, that's okay, but yeah see what you can do. Cheers. —Torchiest ^talk_edits 00:01, 12 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]

I found another possible issue: Game Drink Code looks like a blog with no staff or editorial oversight. Is there anything showing it's a reliable source? —Torchiest ^talk_edits 05:35, 12 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]
- I will take a look today. if I don't find any proff, I will remove it. — ΛΧΣ²¹ 13:38, 12 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]
  - Sorry I am taking too long to fix the issues. Real life is keeping me a bit busy lately. — ΛΧΣ²¹ 17:59, 15 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]
    - No problem, I know how that can be. :) —Torchiest ^talk_edits 18:05, 15 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]
      - I removed the source as unreliable. I am editing from an iPad and its very unconfortable to write the plot details from here, so Ill do it tonite at home. Regards. — ΛΧΣ²¹ 18:08, 15 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]
      - I have expanded the sequel's section :D Anything else? — ΛΧΣ²¹ 04:06, 22 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]
        Nice work on the sequel part, but you still need to describe the plot of Gravity Bone more in the gameplay section and fix the image description. —Torchiest ^talk_edits 16:10, 22 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]
        Can you help me fixing the description? I will take care of the plot today :) — ΛΧΣ²¹ 16:58, 22 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]
        Okay, I adjusted the wording of the image rationale. Let me know when you're done working on the plot and I will give it one more copy edit and then pass this thing. :) —Torchiest ^talk_edits 17:20, 22 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]
        Okay, I have exoanded as much as I could. Copyedit please :) I will take this to FAC as soon as my other FAC closes. And thanks. — ΛΧΣ²¹ 18:19, 22 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]

It's a pass. Congratulations. :) —Torchiest ^talk_edits 18:25, 22 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Yay! After months of work it got passed :D — ΛΧΣ²¹ 18:29, 22 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]
