[Henry the Hamburger 1.5]

(title in work)

^^Good Points^^
This was an interesting little game you made. The different objects to avoid and capture were quite funny, and playing as a hamburger was something unique as well.

^^Needs Improving^^
Really was kind of boring to me. I played for three minutes or so and was really bored by how easy it was. Definitely needs to get a bit harder sooner in the game to be more fun.

DAIRYDOG responds:

poopy!

[Space Fighters Revolution]

(title in work)

^^Good Points^^
This game was pretty well made. The graphics were pretty good and the game's premise and controls were easy enough to be enjoyable. Overall a good base for a game.

^^Needs Improving^^
Pretty boring if you ask me. Not really challenging and doesn't really keep one playing. Definitely needs some twists thrown in to break up the monotony of playing.

Nemo responds:

I meant to make this into a game with a story and various missions, but I got caught up in Zombie Grounds II at the time and turned it into an arcade game in one night. Thanks for the pointers and the review!

[Raider Rush]

(title in work)

^^Good Points^^
At first the game didn't look that great to me, but the upgrades are what really made this game interesting to play. There were a ton of them hidden in the "?" falling from the sky. Quite an interesting concept there.

^^Needs Improving^^
There were two songs, but maybe you could have had some more variety in the genres of music. Also, I thought the game was a bit dark, could have lightened it up a bit.

ChromeShark responds:

Some good points, thanks for the review.

[Techno Targets]

(title in work)

^^Good Points^^
A simple target shooting game. I liked the techno theme though, that was a pretty neat idea. Got pretty challenging at the end of some levels. You really had to be spot on, or some would get away.

^^Needs Improving^^
Way too simplistic. Perhaps instead of making the game hard by barraging the player with targets, make them harder to hit...moving erratically or smaller targets or something.

Excalibur32 responds:

Thank you for the thorough review. I'm glad you enjoyed at least a few aspects of the game.

[Memory Puzzle]

(title in work)

^^Good Points^^
It was a pretty solid game. The animations during the game make it look pretty good and professionally done. Good quality in the pictures, and the game had a good engine.

^^Needs Improving^^
Why does it have to be under 200kb? I think it would have been an excellent idea to have some music from this games main star. Would make sense to me.

K0nzt4nt1ne responds:

Hi Milinko959!

Have to be under 200kb cuz the website don't alow more then this. But you are right.

Thanx for the review. =]

[Defend Level 60]

(title in work)

^^Good Points^^
Quite good! I always find these NG stat related games to be quite fun. Someone needs to make one about reviews! I have to say that I thought the game got pretty challenging as it went on, and the music made the game seem quite intense. Good job on this one.

^^Needs Improving^^
The edges of some of the icons looked a bit weird. A white one drawn in Flash would have been better. Other than that, maybe think about adding a highscore list, but make sure you add an anti-cheating measure if you do!

Objection responds:

The edges of the icons will always look weird, no matter how I do them. Tried and tested.
Also, I have a hi-score list (armorbot) and it has cheater warnings.

[Halloween Squid]

(title in work)

^^Good Points^^
This was a very solid game. The game play was pretty challenging, but still fun to play for a while. The graphics were excellent, and was definitely themed well for Halloween. Definitely a good Halloween game.

^^Needs Improving^^
The main problem I have with this is the fact that your game "Jellyfish" is pretty much the same thing as this. In fact, I'm pretty sure it is the same exact game just with some Halloween themed graphics.

Vengeance responds:

Well, it is a sequel, so it has similar gameplay. This one has everything that was criticised in the first one. A larger area with scrolling, a jellyfish that doesn't shoot straight to the corner. Not only that, but I made a lot of changes to the physics of the jellyfish to make it lag a lot less as well as fix a few glitches with it. These aren't overly noticable because wel, they were fixing glitches and making it lag less.

[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.

[The Road to King]

(title in work)

^^Good Points^^
Definitely a pretty good job on one of your first games. The graphics were pretty refreshing, and made the game more playable. It reminded me of the desert level of SMB3 for obvious reasons. Simple gameplay, and not too many bugs, though I will mention some below. Keep working on it!

^^Needs Improving^^
First off, jumping was a little strange, when next to a low platform. Sometimes, I guess your foot hits a low platform, stopping you, which is just annoying. Also, I found that you can fall through vertically stretched platforms. Not sure if you meant for this, but it seems more like a bug to me. One more thing: you may want to consider using WASD rather than the arrow keys, as it is just easier when using the mouse.

Abs55 responds:

Thanks for your review. There are some little bugs like the jumping which I will improve for my next game. I never intended the user to walk on the vertical platform as I wanted the person to fall or jump over it. I will consider using the WASD keys next time and will try to let the user pick which keys, he/she wants to use.

Thanks again :)

^^Good Points^^
It's pretty good for a scene creator. The music really caught my interest as it is really intense and cool to listen to. The graphics in this were nice, especially the detail in the blood and the guns. The intro was kind of interesting too.

^^Needs Improving^^
Madness scene creator...about the most unoriginal idea, though pretty much everything dealing with madness is just recycled crap.

AntoArts-Admin responds:

Well, I think you're the first who likes the music :D
