"Nice feel"

submission: Armored Ashura

date: 12 hours ago

I found this game to be really entertaining, and the style of the game was great, it reminded me of games back to the 32 bit days (the ashura and power voices did it for me). Music was really good as well, wasn't repetitive and set the right mood.
The graphics are really good, but I would like for the enemies' bullets and attacks to contrast more to the setting, because it blended in too well for me and I couldn't see them well enough to dodge it.
The game had a medium-hard difficulty for me, it takes some time to get adjusted to. Replaying this game over made it easier for me to dodge bullets and shoot the missles with ease.
Missle Ashura FTW.

Score: 10

"Loved It"

submission: the Last of the Dashkin

date: 13 hours ago

This is a really good installment to the Brackenwood series. It still has the amazing quality that you always offered and astounded everyone on Newgrounds with.
One thing that I really liked in this, is that it offered more story about Bitey, before we have only known him as a mischievous little creature, but with this, we know that he is just really lonely. It gives him more purpose and understanding because the other flashes before this didn't have much story besides him getting into trouble.
Another thing I liked was the gorgeous setting in this. The water effects are some of the best I've seen, as well as the amazing landscape.
Can't wait to see what happens to Bitey next.

Score: 8

"Damn Fat Kid..otherwise gg"

submission: BBQ Hero

date: December 5, 2009

Nice unique gameplay, nice job on adding the other gameplay of getting the right cooked food which made it more interesting. Graphics are great, a positive factor was seeing each of the family's faces at the end.
It have been nice to add more combinations instead of using the same ones throughout the game, or add something to kill the fat kid...I swear that kid is as annoying that the dog in duckhunt.

Score: 9

"Funny Game"

submission: Hobo Prison Brawl

date: December 5, 2009

This is an awesome game! The graphics are done very well, and I really liked the combos. The transition from stage to stage was also well done and I liked the humor in this game. Music is great, and I also liked the boss battle.
It was a short game, but it impressed me a lot.

Score: 5

"Don't really like it"

submission: Protect Your Planet!

date: December 5, 2009

The alien is cute and I liked the nice art (reminded me of Dan Paladin). The setting and blood effects are very well done.
Music is okay, very repetitive though.
The gameplay could improve, there are many problems that could be fixed

1. Spawning
Later in the game, those white aliens spawn in seconds later in the game. I hated how an alien would spawn behind you when you are in the middle of a combo, because that sneaky alien would hit you from behind and kill health. Also, I hated that when you are only one alien away from beating the level, aliens would spawn faster, making it impossible to kill just one.
2. Inability to dodge attacks
I know what you're saying, there is a jump ability, but it is crude at best. A block or some sort of dodging ability would greatly help against the hundreds of aliens against you.
3. Jump attack
Would help with dodging attacks.
4. Inability to maintain health
This is the problem that I had the most trouble with. I hated how you started at half health, which made it harder to survive later in the game. At every level and upgrade point, I had less health than what I started with, forcing me to buy health and not being able to buy weapons. I would like that you could get health proportional to the points you have.
5. Repetitiveness.
This is game is very repetitive, I couldn't play for more than four levels because it took too long and wasn't fun. All you had to do was attack and dodge in the best way this game allows you.
It would be fun to make this game a platformer or different enemies. Showing the enemies health bar would be helpful. Try to make this game more fun.

Score: 5

"Just meh"

submission: Pick And Dodge

date: November 29, 2009

This is okay, nothing really new or exciting to make me play again. The concept and gameplay is too overused. I didn't like the music because it's not my taste and graphics are okay. Make it so that the gems won't appear as often because that takes away some of the challenge. Add some more balls or obstacles to add some challenge too.

Score: 8

"It just keeps coming..."

submission: sni[p]r

date: November 29, 2009

I have to say, this was impressive and addicting while it lasted. Graphics are decent, and the music could be better, but I did like the gameplay.
The concept isn't anything new, a defense shooting game: not very memorable. The execution was decent with the upgrades and the tanks though.
What I didn't like is that this was repetitive: after getting all the upgrades, it's not that fun anymore. Also, I didn't like that, a wave of tanks and people would come at you unexpectedly. This resulted in too much clicking and my arm and hand now hurts :(

Score: 4

"Mediocre"

submission: Movie Quiz: Cars

date: November 25, 2009

This was an okay quiz, nothing new or old. Graphics are great but could improve. Nice job on using music from the Cars soundtrack but it got repetitive and annoying at best.
Quiz questions were surprisingly hard, you would have to be a good fan to know these kinds of things. I've watched the movie twice, and got a nice 9 out of 15. It would help if you provided the right answers to the questions we got wrong. Some trivia would help or some type of prize to go along with the quiz.

Score: 8

"Easy time-waster"

submission: Hotel Management

date: November 25, 2009

This is okay for something of its genre, this is pretty fun to play and easy to beat. Graphics are pretty good, and how the hotel was designed. The upgrades were a plus and it was great to see the money rack up.
There are many problems though: first, the upgrade system although great, should include more because afterwards when you unlock everything, the game becomes boring.
Also, a few levels after you unlock everything, the game becomes a frantic clickfest, which was when the game became challenging and got more interesting. I would like for some more challenges next time.
Music was repetitive, there should be more variety.
Gameplay could also use more challenging by introducing more things. For example, some time-management games utilize a combo system in which you rack up more points by doing the same action in a row. The game was also easy because you get tipped for EVERYTHING.
Keep things interesting, the main problem is lack of upgrades, but you could have us be able to change the hotel appearance, to spruce things up a bit. Add some more actions such as hiring more employees, or more actions with the restaurant and gym. This makes things more challenging and fun, with more upgrades to boot.
There is also an occasional glitch I had a problem with: the guest will usually have an action, but disappear suddenly without allowing you complete it. Then, the guest will request to leave.

Score: 5

"Has good points, but..."

submission: -PURSUIT-

date: November 23, 2009

At first glance I thought this would be a good game due to the quality it presented. However, as I got later, I found otherwise.
First off, the gameplay. It was simple to do, just use your mouse, and I'm a sucker for point-and-click games. The challenges were disappointing though, as they were too random and didn't use too much common sense. Really? the fishing rod out of a banana, rope, glue, and a knife? Why not just use the damn knife. I had to use a walkthrough for half the game. The challenges didn't make much sense as well, as to how Diana knew what items to get out of her apartment (I guess I need my teddy bear for this ONE moment). The lack of realism in the challenges killed the game.
It's always nice to have voice-acting, but it's also good to have quality. The voices were over-the-top, and incredibly cheesy. I cringed during the Mickey death scene. Plot was okay but unoriginal, woman detective goes to find out crime boss to avenge her lover.
This could use work, I suggest for better challenges next time.
