[Mousemaze #2]

a big improvement

^^Good Points^^
After just playing the first version of this game, I am impressed with the amount of improvement this second version has recieved. The level designs are better, the added check points make failing less annoying, and the survival levels are a cool idea. This was much better.

^^Needs Improving^^
Still, the levels are without a lot of graphical spark and are very boring. Add some fancy graphics or something to make this more appealing.

curnimurnihurniburni responds:

I've started working on a third version :P just because these are easy to make. but i will, as many people suggested: improve graphics, add more sound, background music, background, levels. etc.

[Flasteroids]

This I can like.

^^Good Points^^
This game is original. I've never seen a game exactly like this one. I found the graphics to be subtle, you very impressive. For example, I liked how some start, meant to be further away, move down slower than ones meant to look closer, giving a sense of realism in this. The smooth movements of the ship also looks cool and makes the game fun to play. This game is very well made, is challenging, and not to mention, fun to play.

^^Needs Improving^^
There really isn't anything I can think of to improve this, sorry.

iVisual responds:

Thanx. Well there are some things i need to improve but never mind ;)

[Space Invaders: Reborn]

Basically stolen

^^Good Points^^
The graphics were nicely done. The gradients were subtle yet made the game look very nice. The game worked fine as well. As far as I can see there aren't any bugs that hurt game play a lot.

^^Needs Improving^^
I've seen many games just like this one, probably using the same exact script come through the portal. The game works just like them and this isn't very original at all, and I hate when stuff is unoriginal. Next time make a game that doesn't already exist in five hundred other forms.

iVisual responds:

Ok....

[From Dusk Till Dawn SB]

Not bad at all.

^^Good Points^^
I liked the music on the menu. I've never seen the movie, but it seems to go along with the mood of the movie from what I can decipher from the sounds. The movie info, help, and website part of this were a nice addition and really help to spruce this up. The soundboard itself is nicely done as well. The text is nice and big and all of the buttons work well. A lot of the quotes were good ones.

^^Needs Improving^^
This definitely could have done without the teal background. Also some of the sounds have a lot of background noise in them, which I don't find too attractive in a soundboard. There weren't too many sounds either...only seventeen. :S

Overall, this is a nice soundboard, but a little lacking in quantity.

Thanks for your review!

[Marshmallow]

*Yawn*

^^Good Points^^
This game is presented very well. The menu is easy to read and the game is easy to understand. The graphics are very well done. Both the drawings and animations are well done. The music and sound effects were also pretty good.

^^Needs Improving^^
I didn't really like playing this game at all. The way the Marshmellow moved was really annoying and the game play was paced to slow to be fun. The game didn't really get harder as it went on, and it gets really repetitive since there are no levels/upgrades/etc. This could definitely use some revising.

Overall, a nice looking game, but not so great to play.

Absolute-Requiem responds:

Well thats fair enough not everyone likes the movement and having to time the moves. Fiar points made for the improvements. I am planning on doing a new veriosn at some point with highscores, leveling, possibly upgrades because many people have pointed this out as gd improvments to make. Thanks very much for the comments.

[Ryan's Dream Adventure]

Decent

^^Good Points^^
I liked how this really felt like playing an old video game, maybe one on the SNES. The beginning was cool how it "reset" ever once in a while to simulate that. The music was real retro sounding and the graphics were done well. I liked how this game was presented.

^^Needs Improving^^
I can't really say honestly that I had a whole lot of fun playing this game. I found the controls to be a little sketchy, and the game itself seemed to leave me stuck in a lot of places, where my only option was to jump.

The game is well designed, this just didn't appeal much to me.

Sk8erGirl14 responds:

yeah, this was a pretty good learning experience...

I know it's problems and hopefully they will be avoided in the next games I develope...

thanks for the review...

[The Simpsons: A Quiz v.2]

Too short

^^Good Points^^
I liked the music and different sound effects used during the test. I've never heard that song and it was interesting to hear. Everything in the quiz seemed to work pretty well. The questions for each difficulty are good choices.

^^Needs Improving^^
Like I said in the title, this quiz is far too short. It's only five questions for each difficulty. I didn't like how one had to start the quiz over when they got a question wrong, since answering the same questions over again is just a waste of time. The graphics are also really bland in this. Try making a background for it with some of the characters. I also didn't really like the famous quotes part of this. There were only three qutoes, and since you've made a soundboard of this show, you could have added the sounds in to spice this up a little bit.

Overall, this just looks unfinished to me. More questions and spruced up graphics would really do this quiz a service.

Yeah, I'm using a profgram (KoolMoves), and I noly have the demo, so I couldn't save! I had to work on it in one run!

[Pico's Hangman Demo]

Stupid

^^Good Points^^
The graphics were decent. I liked the layout of the game and how it worked.

^^Needs Improving^^
Some of the buttons didn't work, and I don't really see the point to the shooting pico point. That has nothing to do with hangman, and nothing to do with the game. Not sure how many words there are, but I got banana, three out of five times. Either there aren't many words, or I just have terrible luck. The music was also a terrible choice, I hate that song and it really turned me away.

Aprime responds:

terrible luck

[Train Speed Math Program]

It's alright...

^^Good Points^^
I guess this is a good idea. It works fairly well from what I can tell.

^^Needs Improving^^
The whole game is very cluttered making it look very complicated and hard to play. There also isn't a time limit making it really easy to cheat or just work out the answers. I didn't really find this fun, I won't play this game ever again.

eliteskills responds:

There is a time limit. That's what the lil blue bar is for.

lmao cheating!? Who cares if they cheat, it's moronic and takes away the point of the program.

[Cookie Crumble]

Like a real cookie, addictive.

^^Good Points^^
This game is a good game that is fun to play. The graphics and design of the game looked very smooth, and the moving backgrounds look really cool. The music was a good choice, and the slowly increasing pace of the game play makes this game pretty addictive. The level system, though sort of pointless, is a good addition. Overall this game is presented very well.

^^Needs Improving^^
This could use some kind of difficulty levels to set in the beginning. The game starts to progress way too slowly in the beginning, which I'm sure turned some people off.

pixelz responds:

Well I'm glad you enjoyed the game, and having it slowly prgress is just how the game works. In the future I might make a sequal. But thanks for the good review=)
