FattyWhale's game Reviews on Newgrounds

[V Soundboard]

K

^^Good Points^^
Yes, this is a pretty unique review, I'm sure no one has made a soundboard for this movie, so good job on making it. I thought some of the sound clips were pretty interesting, and they could be used for a prank call. I also thought the graphics were well done in this.

^^Needs Improving^^
There wasn't a lot of clips in here. It would be a lot better if you had simple greetings/questions, and that would make it much better for a prank call and such.

Frenzy responds:

A unique review? o___O

Lol, anyway, thanks!

[Global Defense]

K

^^Good Points^^
This was a pretty good game. A little disappointing for daily third, but no doubt a well-made game. The game functioned nearly flawlessly and was pretty challenging. It got really hard when you added dual colored missiles, which was a neat thing to have. The music was pretty cool, and the graphics were well done too. I can tell that you thought this game out well too, since only a certain amount of missiles are allowed to be shot.

^^Needs Improving^^
The graphics look kind of pixilated, could have been quite a bit better.

MaxManning responds:

Thanks for your feedback.

I have an actual artist working on the next version, so the graphics should be far better than I could ever do.

[How to Make a Bad Flash]

K

^^Good Points^^
I thought the funniest part about this movie was the fact that you had the pokemon theme song as one of the song choices.

^^Needs Improving^^
Ok then, the sound compression tutorial is located at the bottom of the submit page! You need to do it. This sure does serve its purpose though. I don't really like how you presented this, it really wasn't that interesting and there wasn't much information in here.

Frenzy responds:

I wanna be the very best
Like noone ever was
To catch them is my real test
To train them is my cause
I will travel across the land
Searching far and wide
Each Pokemon to understand
The power that's inside

Chorus
Pokemon!
It's you and me
I know it's my destiny
Pokemon!
Ooh, you're my best friend
In a world we must defend
Pokemon!
Our hearts so true
Our courage will pull us through
You teach me and I'll teach you
Pokemon
Gotta catch 'em all!

Every challenge along the way
With courage I will face
I will battle every day
To claim my rightful place
Come with me, the time is right
There's no better team
Arm in arm we'll win the fight
It's always been our dream

Chorus

["Newgrounds Tutorial"]

^^Good Points^^
I guess the sound wasn't too bad, but FOR GOD'S SAKE COMPRESS THE AUDIO FOR ONCE!

^^Needs Improving^^
I wasn't really impressed by this. Since the new levels will be out very soon, this will be mostly out-dated in a short amount of time. Besides that, the info really isn't anything secret. It's already in many tutorials, and it is even on the NG website in more detail. This was also very slow to start, which I didn't quite like.

Frenzy responds:

Lol, I don't know how to compress the audio!!

Thanks for the review though.

[Ultimate Homer Simpson SB]

K

^^Good Points^^
One of the best characters to make a SB on, I would say. You definitely added a lot of cool sound clips to this, they made me laugh. Everything seemed to work, and you had a bunch of clips.

^^Needs Improving^^
First thing I noticed was that you had a picture of Dr. Nick...on a Homer soundboard. Doesn't make much sense to me. Anyway, the sound effects were very varying in volume, which was annoying, and they weren't organized in any way.

Frenzy responds:

Okay, thanks!

[Dumb & Dumber Soundboard]

K

^^Good Points^^
Ah! A soundboard for one of the greatest movies every to be made! I commend you on making this, I don't know why I never did one! The sound clips you had on here were some hilarious ones, it really makes me want to watch this movie again. Very funny stuff, nice job.

^^Needs Improving^^
There are a countless number of funny clips from that movie, so perhaps you could have added a few more into this. I was kind of surprised at how few there were, since there are so many good ones.

IAmSaul responds:

Yeah i might make a V2 of it with more sounds.

[Passions Creek]

K

^^Good Points^^
The music isn't bad for this type of dealy.

^^Needs Improving^^
What is this for? Some type of movie you are making. Perhaps I would be interested, but it doesn't sound like this movie will be made in Flash, so what do I care. I really think the lack of success this will get is because no one really cares about your friends and who they are, and no one wants to read a preview of a script about these people either. I'd keep it within your school.

Billy-Bean responds:

Okay, yeah, the song is pretty good. It's not going to be the song for the entire thing though, it's only temporary until I actually make the theme song. And although I am not making my show a flash, this project is a flash and I will be using flash a lot throughout the development, so flash IS a big part of it. And this is far from a lack of success. It had a low rating because Newgrounds still doesn't entirely know what's going on, as I progress on making this you will learn more and vote higher. I only put this on for it to pass, I knew I wouldn't get a high rating, until my others which give me a 3.58 B/A. And I only had a little commentary about my friends for you to read as a laugh, you don't need to know them to know what would be funny or good, because I told you if so or so would be good for the part or not. You don't need to know my characters to like the show, just like you don't need to know any other actor to enjoy their movies. And people do want to the read the script and are interested, I have lots of people all over the web who are interested in my idea and excited about April when they can buy it, just because you don't know someone doesn't mean you won't like their work, as I mentioned earlier. And "these people" are just characters. Only a couple are based off of actual people and it doesn't even really matter because as the show progresses you learn everything you need to know about the flash anyways.. Show, sorry. I'm not keeping it within my school because I have to SELL this, I am making a website for people to purchase it online and I already have people booking orders now, months before it's actually going to be made. Your problem is that you're taking the conduct of the show to seriously and looking past the idea of the flash, to inform you about the show, an "imformative flash," which is, in fact, a flash. Just because it's a show doesn't mean I can't use other programs to help advertise or inform people about it. Anyways, thanks for your review and perhaps you should start considering other things more carefully rather than just randomly rambling on without really thinking.

[Feudal Showdown]

K

^^Good Points^^
As the previous reviewer, this does show potential to be a pretty good game. You had Tsugaru for music, which fit perfectly, and the simplistic graphics reminded me of simplistic script story telling, which is neat.

^^Needs Improving^^
Nothing annoys me more in a game than bad detection and cheap spawn deaths, and this game is riddled with both of those problems. Perhaps when one dies the barrage should start over instead of continue to prevent spawn deaths. Also, you have to make the guy smaller or the objects further apart. It is extremely hard to navigate through them especially with the bad detection. Also, the music doesn't loop.

JunkFoodKing responds:

really? I tested it in Endless mode, and it should have looped. Oh well. I'll learn better actionscript and hopefully make a better game.

[Az Challenges 0.1]

K

^^Good Points^^
Well, if the next one will be much better than this, I'm sure it will be pretty good. The game has a great interface. The different attacks and the energy system works well.

^^Needs Improving^^
The graphics weren't really good. There was no background that you drew, and the enemy was just some ugly looking stick figure. You should really improve the graphics. Also, perhaps some type of short intro movie to this to set a storyline. The battles themselves are kind of boring.

ottermaniac responds:

Yeah like I mentioned this was just a test :P

You can expect everything you mentioned in the next one. Thanks :D

[De-Monstration]

K

^^Good Points^^
Had I knew how to play the game, it seems like it might actually be kind of fun to play!

^^Needs Improving^^
Yeah, I really had no idea what the heck was going on when I was playing this game. You really need to explain what is going on in this game as when I played the monsters just moved around in the blocks seemingly randomly. Improve the instructions page and this will be better.

LoopyWolf responds:

Ok, I'll see what I can do, Milinko. It's quite simple once you understand, perhaps the instructions aren't fully clear.
