[HollywoodHalo Soundboard]

(title in work)

^^Good Points^^
It's an interesting idea how you combined three soundboards into one here. That made for a bunch of quotes to listen to.

^^Needs Improving^^
Unfortunately, Quality > Quantity. These clips were, for the most part, pretty terrible. The quality wasn't that good, and many of them were so riddled with background noises and such that I couldn't even make out what was being said. The quotes were really long, so there needs to be a stop all sounds button as well.

[FPS Ultima]

(title in work)

^^Good Points^^
For the filesize, you aren't going to get much better than this. The game play was simple and the graphics weren't too bad either. Pretty good for a first game.

^^Needs Improving^^
A little bit boring. There were no sound effects to make the gameplay seem more realistic, and it was very linear. You don't move from room to room, the enemies don't attack you, and always pop out from the same spot. You should just be more creative next time.

[Circle It]

(title in work)

^^Good Points^^
Interesting concept. Music was cool. Just needs a bit of fine tuning and a little clearer gameplay to make it better.

^^Needs Improving^^
I had a lot of trouble with this game. You could hardly connect the end of the lines quick enough to draw circles around the spheres. It was very hard to understand exactly how this game worked. Not very fun.

[Chain Reaction Game Demo]

(title in work)

^^Good Points^^
Well, the game works fairly well. The reactions are not too hard to trigger, yet end quick enough so that they don't make the game incredibly easy. Nice graphical effect in the explosion as well.

^^Needs Improving^^
Really not much needed to add on top of the demo. All you need is a highscore list and maybe some kind of sound effect and some better graphics. Other than that, don't see why you didn't just submit one final version.

[EVER-CHANGE #6]

(title in work)

^^Good Points^^
That was really bizarre. Never have seen anything quite like this one. The images were really complex and interesting to look at, and the speed at which they change is really trippy. The music was awesome too.

^^Needs Improving^^
Can't really think of anything to say, I'm really surprised by this.

[aMAZEing]

(title in work)

Yikes! I guess it's a challenging maze to play. It sure is really big and not easy to navigate through. However, I would like this a lot more if it didn't move so slow. I spent way too much time going through long paths and maybe having to go back. Honestly not a good thing to put in Flash. I'd rather just do complex mazes on a piece of paper.

[Groove Pong]

(title in work)

^^Good Points^^
This was an interesting rendition of pong. The funky theme was pretty unique and refreshing. You definitely carried the theme well throughout the game.

^^Needs Improving^^
Too hard and too easy at the same time. The ball never changes speed, and you can't provoke a change in angle, so it's really impossible for the cpu to miss, and if you miss when playing, then you are really bad at pong. Ball needs to change speed or something.

[Potato Man Dressup v.1]

(title in work)

^^Good Points^^
Lol, that sure was one rotten, moldy potato. It was kind of surprising. The art was pretty detailed and it was a good start for a dressup game. Music was good too.

^^Needs Improving^^
This needs a whole lot more items to use. There was only one or two items in each category, which doesn't allow for much customization of this guy. If this had about 2-3 times the amount of items, it would be a lot better.

[Synaesthesia - Episode 1]

(title in work)

^^Good Points^^
This was a very interesting game you have here. It's very interesting to see the way you think. Artwork was really good with the sketchy style. Definitely thought this was pretty interesting to look through.

^^Needs Improving^^
Some of the audio was a bit weird. Some of it was low quality and didn't sound good coming out of my speakers.

[Jackass Quiz]

(title in work)

^^Good Points^^
I guess if you are a big fan of the show you would know the questions more and be more interested in this.

^^Needs Improving^^
First off, the filesize is almost 5mb, which would suggest to me you put in some uncompressed audio, but I hear nothing when playing. It's also really annoying how you have to go back to the beginning after missing a question.

AgencyofStupidity responds:

yeah, looking back at this, it shames me all the flaws that I let into it. back when I knew next to nothing about flash (hell, I'm surprised that the buttons even worked). and the reason the file is so large was because I put 13-19 Mb video files into the flash itself. Anyway, thanks for the review, and I promise that if/when I get the second one finished, it will be better than this one in every way.
