[Stop the mountain]

(title in work)

For a 2.1 KB game, it definitely wasn't bad. A simple concept and simple game play. Unfortunately you can only play against yourself since there are no high scores or anything of that nature. It would have been nice to add color to ones that are furthest from their starting point so you had some sort of priority. Otherwise it's just kind of mindless.

BlackStar23 responds:

The color idea is interesting.
However, the danger doesn't depend on the relative position to its starting point, but on the total vertical position on the screen.

There is no color because my work should show the possible minimalism in creating games. the "mountain" is drawn by moveTo, lineTo and beginFill commands.
Finally, you should admire the simplicity and then go on.
No need to replay the game several times.
I only played some games to find bugs.

[Az Challenges 1]

(title in work)

A decent real time RPG type game. Graphics were simple, yet got the job done. The game play was a bit stale f you ask me. Too simple in just waiting for MP to fill up and no healing spells or protection/skill increase spells. Mainly just mindless attacking, which wasn't that interesting. Also, only one level doesn't cause for much replay.

[The Nanobot Pre-boot Menu]

(title in work)

Well alright...I don't really see the point of this submission. You sit through a long bunch of intro scenes and then have to figure out to type in exec boot, which there are really no hints to that except the exec part. It's annoying how you have to click the box each time you want to type something, and there was really no reward except a perpetual loading screen.

[mario avoider]

(title in work)

This was actually a decent maze game that was very original, whereas most are pretty boring and generic. Having all of the Mario enemies and villains in here as objects to avoid was a good idea. The graphics weren't that impressive, but the game play was fun. You could have made it smoother by increasing the FPS though. Also, at one point the music started layering itself which is pretty annoying. And at another point when I died I was sent back a few levels. Not sure if this is intentional or not, but it didn't seem to be.

[Halloween Shooter]

(title in work)

The tunnel background that was constantly moving was pretty neat. The coloring was nice and it gave this movie a good look overall. The game play was a bit stale. Very repetitive and not too challenging. Would have been better if it were more challenging.

[Pump N' Blow]

(title in work)

A nice little political game here. It was presented extremely well graphically. Very nice drawings and animations throughout, and the sound effects with voice clips was a good idea too. The game play was pretty fun, especially with the addition of having to make sure you don't overfill the tank or tires. Fun game.

[When Pigs Fly]

(title in work)

Another unnecessarily and ridiculously difficult game with equally ridiculous and impossible medals. I feel like the maker of this game is just a giant troll for putting these medals here. Beating the game without making a mistake is ridiculous. The sound effects are annoying and the hitboxes are always working against you. A terrible game. Sure wish it didn't have medals.

[Dodge II]

(title in work)

A decent avoiding game, though nothing really fancy. I think the best part about this is that it has highscores, making this much replayable than most games of this type. You definitely should have increased the framerate on this a bit more. Things seem to jump across the screen after a while, and it's a bit difficult because of that. At least 30 FPS would have been good for this.

[ID Button Tutorial]

(title in work)

This tutorial wasn't too bad. It had all the information that was needed, and was explained fairly well. A beginner could definitely benefit from this tutorial. It's not presented too well though. A bit ugly if you ask me, with the plain black background and the white text. That's why this will have a lower score than other tutorials.

IceyDrummer responds:

I wanted it to be simple and "boring" if you will because when I got though other tutorials and they have bright yellow and pink backgrounds I find I cannot focus on anything and it actually takes away from it but I just wanted a very basic tutorial for a very basic concept.

[DKNH Keyboard]

(title in work)

Very useless. If someone doesn't have a keyboard, I doubt they will be able to search for this submission and find it. Also, you cannot copy any of the text without BUYING a full version. So basically if you are in an emergency, find this submission to type something, too bad, because you have to buy the full version. Also, there is a program like this within Windows and probably every other modern OS. Completely useless.
