[Ultra Tutorial NG Edtion]

(title in work)

^^Good Points^^
I guess it serves its purpose. The information in here seemed to be relevant and accurate for the most part. Didn't look through everything, but it seemed alright.

^^Needs Improving^^
Really an unnecessary tutorial. All of this information is outdated now, but even if it wasn't, all of this information is scattered in many tutorials and in the FAQ section of NG. You didn't really present this in a way that was more interesting than others.

[Fishies]

(title in work)

^^Good Points^^
A decent avoiding game. It starts off easy enough, but after a few seconds you need really quick reflexes. A good game to waste a few minutes trying to beat your own scores.

^^Needs Improving^^
I thought it was a little bit lame how you can touch the big fish's tail and just automatically end up in his mouth. You should have had some kind of progressive health system where you lose health for hitting his tail and instantly die if you fall into his mouth.

[DnB-X005 Drum Machine]

(title in work)

^^Good Points^^
I'm not really into making music or anything, but this was pretty cool. It looked like some kind of mixing machine the way it was set up, and it interacted just like one too. So I guess if you have experience in this it would be something easy to use.

^^Needs Improving^^
I know nothing of this sort of thing, so I really can't make many comments on what to improve upon. Was easy to use.

[Bunny VS World]

(title in work)

^^Good Points^^
A great game you've got here. Never played a game as a kitana-wielding bunny rabbit before. The graphics were very clean and the game play had few bugs and errors as well. Very fun to play side scrolling action game.

The only thing I didn't like much was attacking. It just got boring and repetitive after a while. I think you should have made a standing attack and an air attack rather than just one.

^^Good Points^^
Well for the old NG system it wasn't a bad tutorial. Had a lot of information included in the NG FAQ, but puts it in a funner way to look at it.

^^Needs Improving^^
It's out dated to say the least. But besides that, I think it was a little bit boring. There were giant walls of text throughout. Even if you are going to say all of that, put it one some separate frames to make it less intimidating and boring.

[Just a tutorial]

(title in work)

^^Good Points^^
Well it was somewhat informative. A rather random tutorial, but it's an interesting animation at least.

^^Needs Improving^^
Really needs some work. As I said, this is a very specific subject, yet no one will ever find it if they are looking how to do this, since the title and description are useless to search for this subject. Anyway, the text thing could have been done in photoshop and probably some other more common programs than Fireworks, which I doubt most people have here.

[Gun Gallery 2]

(title in work)

^^Good Points^^
It wasn't a bad gallery. The images were very well drawn, especially the ones that were drawn on an angle. You have a great sense of lighting when drawing these things. They were pretty neat to look at.

^^Needs Improving^^
Some of these galleries that I've seen have animated shooting where the viewer can click the trigger to actually fire the gun. I always though that was neat, maybe you could consider that idea.

[Bill's Button Tutorial]

(title in work)

^^Good Points^^
Well, it's a button tutorial. Really wasn't expecting much, but there was the basics in here for making buttons.

^^Needs Improving^^
File size is a bit too big if you ask me. Definitely need some music compression. I also noticed that you can't copy the AS scripts directly from this movie, which is pretty much a standard in these tutorials.
