[Kira in a Bubble v0.1]

K

^^Good Points^^
The game isn't too bad. I can see the newer version you promise during this game to be pretty decent when it is finished.

^^Needs Improving^^
First, there is no such thing as a "cursor key" which confused me in the controls. The text all over is really small and incredibly hard to make out. The game itself is a little boring, not much to it, and the lack of sound doesn't help the game out at all either.

[Magic Jet 2]

K

^^Good Points^^
This was an excellent game, and I was pretty impressed by it. It definitely is an original idea, to have a side scrolling shooter, usually set in a space-age environment, actually set in an old fashioned Asian environment with sages and wisemen as characters. The storyline was interesting, it definitely made the game more interesting, and the game play was overall very smooth. Well thought out and challenging as well.

^^Needs Improving^^
I wasn't sure what the controls were to start out, which was a little frustrating, and I didn't see an instruction page at any point either.

[Teh Uber Tut: Sprites]

K

^^Good Points^^
A decent musical choice. Seems like you at least know something about sprites.

^^Needs Improving^^
This is really a lacking tutorial. There are already sprite tutorials on NG, and you really didn't add anything besides the bare minimum of animating sprites. If you are going to make a tutorial in this day and age it has to have at least something special about it. This had a bland graphical layout, and had way too many words per slide. It is intimidating to see all of that text on one page, try splitting it up.

[Nut Drop.]

K

^^Good Points^^
Definitely the best game I've reviewed so far today. The graphics were nice, the backgrounds were drawn pretty well, and I liked the animations of the squirrel running. The game was pretty cool with all of the different upgrades and downgrades, and the game got progressively harder pretty quickly. A fun game overall.

^^Needs Improving^^
A few times my mouse fell off the screen and I lost a few lives, but I guess that was probably of my own fault.

The graphics were refreshing in this movie. The mouse effects were pretty cool, and the stars moved randomly, which made the game a bit harder.

^^Needs Improving^^
This game is just pretty bland to me. You just pick up the stars indefinitely until you hit a red one, which I purposely did after about 50 stars just out of boredom. You need to add something more to your next game to make it more playable.

[Bee Shooter]

K

^^Good Points^^
Decent music in this. Sound effects weren't bad either, and the game had some decent graphics throughout.

^^Needs Improving^^
Really not much to this game at all. The design of th game isn't good, with the tall screen, since it takes you so long to move up and down. A player can just completely ignore half of the screen without penalty. I also really hate it when I am killed by my enemy after I shoot it. There is the split second for the death scene, where the bee still comes at you, and I died a few times from that.

[Metal Gear GuardQuiz]

K

^^Good Points^^
This quiz started out with a pretty funny little animation, which is a lot better than just going right into the quiz. But either way, the quiz was a pretty funny one to take. The questions were humorous, and the answers were even more so. I like how at the end, you are most qualified for giving the worst answers. Good parody of the game.

^^Needs Improving^^
Could have definitely used some more graphically. Perhaps some kind of backgrounds going on. You are good at drawing, just add some MC's related to the questions.

[Hamster Turret Game]

K

^^Good Points^^
This was definitely a very unique defense game. Defending against evil hamsters really isn't something I've seen before. I like how the enemies slowly looked worse and worse until they died. The two turrets and controls are easy to control. The music fit very well, and was quite funny.

^^Needs Improving^^
This is really missing the upgrade system that most defense games have. Needs a point system where you spend points. Also, perhaps some kind of higher difficulty by taking away rapid fire on both turrets.
