Some feedback on my website?

Hi,

I just made a simple website for my projects.
The site is: www.karanlikvadigames.com

Could you please test my website and give some feedback?

What i'm interested in, is which browser you use and how the website looks like in that browser.

If you also could do the following tasks and tell me how it went, it would be great:
- Find my twitter and youtube channel on my website.
- Find the Google Play site for my game "Stealth Kill" from my website.

Thank you very much for the feedbacks!

The website is unresponsive, which instantly turns me away. Your .inner class and several others limits the minimum width to 800 pixels, and even attempts to set the minimum height to 600 pixels. If you can manage the time, you should read up on CSS media queries and responsive design.

 

I have tested your website in both Firefox and Internet Explorer. Your website looks and behaves the same in both browsers.

Finding your Twitter, YouTube, and the Google Play page was also quick and painless.

However, (please don't take any offense to this) your website is ugly to look at.
Most of that ugliness, I think, comes from the background.

The background is also very distracting (it draws attention away from the main content), and it makes some of the text a bit hard to read.

And as lorenalexm mentioned, a responsive web page is a must these days, especially if you are going to have people viewing the page on mobile devices.

 

I'm very new to website design, so I really appreciate the feedback I get

Thanks for the feedback. I will look into that. Instead of setting a specific width and height, what do you suggest I do?

I didn't get offended I really appreciate the feedback, so thank you!. What would be a better option instead of a background image? just solid color, maybe with gradient effect?

thanks!

If you're not wanting to build up the responsive CSS files yourself, there are a number of prebuilt libraries you can look into, I'll list a few here. Though you should really take the time to read up on how responsive design works as a whole, so you have a better understanding of what is actually going on behind the boilerplate.

Yes, think about changing the background. Since all your divs are semi transparent, your background is responsible for the overall website feel.

I'd try a static color. Otherwise, maybe a nice, smooth gradient? Search "blurgrounds" in google.

 

A smooth gradient would look great as a background - the current one is too busy on the eyes.

 

Website looks clean and loads very fast on my cell phone.

 

Note that your usual visitors will not search for these, as they probably don't know you even have a Twitter and Youtube channel. So you have to shove them directly into their face.

Stuff like that belongs right onto the front page, where everybody can see them, or else you don't even need to bother.

(Also, your STEALTH KILL banner has some kerning issues, I first read it as "STEAL TH KILL" and wondered if you had accidentally dropped an "e".)

 

Hi!
Thanks for the feedbacks!
I have changed the look of the website and added the twitter and youtube links on each page. I also fixed the banner issue with one of the games.

I think the website looks alot better now thanks to you guys! .
What do you think? Is it better now? and what else can i do to make it better?

Thanks!

Yes, much better. Needs some color, though.

 

That looks much better!

 

No offense, but your site doesn't look professional at all. Perhaps invest in a website template or pay an artist to build you a decent looking site.

Use a contact form if you can instead of a mailto: link

 

1) Make the site responsive.
2) the images seem a bit slow, try optimizing the images.

Overall, I like your page, it is minimalist, and easy to navigate. I hate those sites with moving stuff and audio.

Consider using something like wordpress rather than do all this work from scratch, it will save you so much time you can focus on your game. Plus with very little effort you can add stuff like forums, blog, user comments, registration, log in with facebook, etc. so your players can interact with each other

 

Fully redesigned my website. What do you guys think?
www.karanlikvadigames.com

 

Agency Bootstrap theme. Very clean, if not wholly interesting.

Some behind-the-scenes stuff to consider:

• You're loading all your Google fonts separately. You can actually combine them into one kit so the site can fetch all fonts in one HTTP request as opposed to five.
• Are you actually even using all 5 of those fonts?
• Image sizes are okay, but a couple are PNG that could probably be converted to JPG to save a couple hundred KB.
• Minifying your JS files wouldn't be a terrible idea, but I don't consider it essential for a site of this size

 

Looks pretty solid, though it loads a bit slow considering the amount of content on the home page.

 

Looks nice. (A bit like the Unity website?) Is this a new Web 3.0 style everyone's doing right now?

Only thing I don't like any of the fonts, especially the top left one. Just not my taste.
