So if you browse to any game on you should see a download button to the left. Sorry to hear that the website doesn't feel good! Which parts of it specifically are you referring to?

> Which parts of it specifically are you referring to?

Oh gosh, I know how obnoxiously unhelpful it is when someone answers "All of it!" to such kind of questions, but in this case it's literally my visceral reaction when using the website, that I couldn't possibly exhaustively list out what felt wrong, but here are the most obvious pain points:

1. huge font that spans the entire screen combined with the arial/helvetica typeface.

I actually didn't realize that the text were not in ALL CAPS until I re-checked the website to type this response. Somehow the text is just constantly screaming in your face yet you couldn't comprehend any of what it's saying unless you force your eyes to enumerate individual letter and re-assemble them in your head

2. The colors makes it really hard to tell what's foreground and background. Again, I have to force my eyes to stop and scan the screen and reassemble them in my head before I could understand what elements are what.

3. Sporadically placed ALL CAPS with no sense of hierarchy that only confuses me further when I'm trying to read it. Again, had to deliberately slow down, scan, and mentally reassemble to comprehend.

Thanks for detailed feedback!
