"Nicely done"

submission: My Love...

date: November 10, 2006

Pretty good, great graphics and style. Sound is a 10, cause it's the beatles!

For it's purpose it's a great Flash, nice that you went to the effort (good idea too, might try something like this myself some day!). For a Newgrounds movie it probably doesn't have enough in it to score well, I hope it passes though.

Nice work, 7/10.

"Great Sonic clone"

submission: Snack Dash

date: November 5, 2006

I wasn't expecting much for the file size, but this was a very accurate clone of Sonic, with an original twist on it.

Not sure about the exercise feature, seemed like an original addition at first but after a while it got tedious having to stop and work out every now and again, it drew away from the fast nature of the game. Also, at one point I got stuck in a pit because I was too fat to get out, had to commit suicide on some spikes. If you were to do a sequel I think this feature would need a rethink.

Otherwise a fantastic game, not a lot else I can suggest to improve it. See you on the Front Page. 10/10.

Score: 8

"Fun while it lasts"

submission: Gateway

date: October 23, 2006

A very well made puzzle game, the 3-D style made it quite original, and the puzzles were well thought out.

I was a bit disappointed that it ended when it did. For a game with zero replay ability I think its important to make sure it doesn't end too soon.

It was a bit linear too. Complete puzzle - move on - complete puzzle - move on, there are more original ways of setting things out.

But I'm only being negative because this has scored so very highly. It was a good game, maybe even a great game. Nice work, 8/10.

Score: 7

"Lucky!"

submission: Gravity Pinball 2

date: October 21, 2006

No offense but you are LUCKY to have got daily feature for this! Don't get me wrong, it's a decent game and I enjoyed playing it, but some of the best game creators here could make this in a few nights. It's not even an original concept, Ball Revamped did pretty much the exact same thing (and quite a lot better too tbh).

Lucky yes, but underserved no. You've clearly put effort into this game to make it an attractive package, I greatly admire Level Creators.

Enjoy the fame, but don't get cocky, you've got a wat to go yet. 7/10.

"Really good beat em up"

submission: Amoeba Amoeba

date: October 18, 2006

Beat em ups are hard games to make in Flash, you did a nice job of it! The thing that impressed me most was the perfect difficulty level, most of my matches were so close they went into a round 3. I guess it's your good AI to thank for that.

Graphically I thought it was great, both the characters the and detailed backgrounds. It was funny too, some very original characters and lots of well conceived attacks.

Really good game, hope to see a sequel with more characters. 10/10

Score: 10

"Brilliance"

submission: the Echo

date: October 17, 2006

It's a crime that this didn't get daily feature, I hope that the high score holds and it gets the attention it deserves elsewhere.

As an animation it was perfect. Beautifully smooth, a very unique style and wonderfully well chosen sound. Just as my attention began to drift it turned into colour which was a fantastic moment, very rare a Flash makes me wow like that.

From start to finish it's a masterpiece of Flash. 10/10.

Score: 8

"Funny"

submission: Excuse Machine v1.0

date: October 15, 2006

This is really funny, I could play for ages.

Not sure if it'll score well cause the graphics and coding are both pretty basic. But the concept is great, and you chose good words - I didn't get a single excuse that didnt make me at least smile.

Nice one, 8/10

Score: 7

"Well animated"

submission: Bants Ninja Wars

date: October 15, 2006

Some impressive animation techniques, and good use of the Flash 8 filters.

First bad point - your description is terrible. Sorry but you should never call your own movie great, it comes across as arrogant and will result in people blamming for the sake of it.

Second - The intro is appalling. The digitized voice is crap and it goes on for too long. I can see people stopping watching and blamming before the movie is even started.

But when the movie starts it gets pretty good. Blurring is used to great effect for motion, and I like your shadows too. Pretty decent physics too, something uncommon in stick movies like this.

I only gave graphics a 6 because I don't expect most of the graphics took long to draw, it's only how they are animated that makes the movie look good. I wouldn't put the simple graphics as a criticism though, as it works well.

7/10.

Score: 10

"TooF is a Legend"

submission: TooF Hate, My Reply 2 You

date: October 11, 2006

I could just copy/paste the review below me cause that pretty much says my views. But I want to say a bit about TooF Leaves and TooF 10 too.

I've been a big fan of TooF since before it got huge. Which is unusual for me because I tend to hate movies that are succesful with weak graphics. When I see movies like 'A vs A' or 'MGA' score higher than the likes of the YuYu it gets to me that people are acheiving more success from work that's taken so much less time and skill.

But I don't feel that way about TooF, because I really don't think the graphics could be improved. I realized this when I saw a parody of TooF with (no offence) way better graphics, the author had used shading and such to make it look great. But it wasn't funny. And I think if you made these like that, they also wouldn't be as funny. The graphics are a part of what makes it great.

You could have tried improving the graphics in a way that retains the humour, and after several presumably failed attempts you may have reached the heights of earlier episodes again. Instead you chose to leave Newgrounds, which I understand. I'm glad that this way we can have lots more classic TooF without all the jerks putting it down. It's sad in a way, but you can be sure that I'll be checking your site in a regular basis to keep up with the new episodes.

After just watching TooF 10, it's safe to say that Newgrounds is really losing out. One of the funniest in a while imo, although a bit too short and I miss the commentry.

This movie sums up TooF at NG really well. I too innately hate rap and generally don't care for Eminem, but it fitted really well. The subtitles added a lot to the humor.

Keep up the great work, just not here. 10/10.

Score: 7

"Not bad, not brilliant"

submission: -Red-

date: October 8, 2006

Currently the highest scoring game at NG, so I was kind of expecting more. But it was still pretty fun for a while.

The graphics can't really get much credit, they're not exactly amazing. But it has a striking look to it and they work well enough.

Some pretty nice physics here, circle collision detection isn't easy and here it was perfect.

Tbh I'm a bit sick of base defending games, and this didn't move far enough away from the cliches in my opinion. And like many of them, it progressed too slowly. I had no intention of replaying after I died.

Don't want to sound too critical though, it has a lot going for it and is well worth checking out. 7/10.
