ChromeShark's game Reviews on Newgrounds

[Dayl vs. Jayku 0.5]

More of a movie...

I rated that as a movie..hence I rated it high. The graphics were excellent, some good effects and decent sound.

As a game it sucked though. You need way more moves, an AI controlled enemy... just for starters...seriously, that was pathetic. As a game. It was a good submission.

Dayl responds:

thanx for the encouragement >=(
im working on turning it into more of a game.

[C4L Grand Prix -UPGRADE-]

Good, but seems unfinished

The controls were good, and I really liked the tyre marks. But other than that the game needed a lot more. The courses were extremely dull, Add more than just green ground/grey walls. I think you'd be better off having a 'beat the best times' system than this 'get as many laps as possible'. Maybe put in some hazards too like oil or glue. And speed ups. It could be good, just needs a bit more work.

Moldorma responds:

Good ideas. I'm making a sequel to this, so I'll be sure to include those.

[Arkanoid]

Cliched and simple.

If your going to remake this game for the millionth time on NG then you should put in something to make it stand out. The most recent succesful version had a paddle that rotated left and right- simple but effective. Another had slow motion. My favourite (not on NG) is one where little gnomes pop out of the block and throuw pots at you which you avoid. Genious!

So this isn't a bad game at all, now that you've made the engine I hope you go away and add something exciting to it (as well as multiple levels and power ups)

SuperBokey responds:

Well why destory such an original game with silly little power-ups and all? I think its perfect as it is ;) (but it may need more levels)

[Fish Chase v2]

Fun

I really liked that game. Graphics were bright, colorful and clean. Game itself was simple but fun to play and the enemy AI wasn't bad at all. I lost on the last level, shame there was no 'retry' option. The sound was fitting but I rated a 0 bacause it really needed an off button, started sending me crazy and spoilt the game a bit. You shoudl add more levels with even more enemies. And something extra to the gameplay like an energy bar (and you can swim faster but rist losing your energy). Nice effort.

Zabuza-Kun responds:

Thanks. I will be sure to add an on/off button for the audio in v3. Along with a few powerups to make it easier/harder, depending on the pickup. I will possibly add more levels. I went for the cartoony look to emphasise that it is just a game. It's meant to be fun. Thanks for the review :D

[Create a Guy 1.1]

Above average dress up

There wasn't anything about this that stood out but wide selection of pieces and good graphics gave a pretty decent result. Could do with some colour changers, changable backgrounds, animated pieces etc. Loved the music but I guess SOAD isnt for everyone so maybe a selection or 'music off' button would have helped. Not bad.

thx

[Bunbun cartoons]

V.Funny

Still animations are never going to do so great on NG, but they're usually just as funny as some of the huge scoring movies, and this is no exception. Most of these strips made me laugh, I especially liked the one where he kills his girlfriend (lol) and the one where he wears the ice cream as a hat (why?!?). Not much else to say, you're a very good cartoonist and I like your work.

Illumatie responds:

thanx...

oh and there is no real reason why he wears it as a hat, it just came to me this way.

[Diamond Collector]

Good submssion

Just the kind of submission I love- a small filesizede game with very little to it but hell loads of fun. Well maybe not hell loads. But it kept me sweet for 5 minutes or so. The controls were pretty good, maybe they should have been a bit less sensitive ginving slightly longer games. A high score would have been good too, it sucked having to remember it. For a game of this calibre music would have been an anoying waste of file size, but some sounds mightnt have gone amiss. And a few things to jazz it up like obstacles and moving diamonds. On the whole I liked it a lot.

flash-flood01 responds:

Thankyou for your input, it is good to see the SOME people are happy with my games.

[GTA Flash MXed V2 Beta]

!

omg that is amazing! I think it's not scoring overly well cause people are comparing it to real GTA, maybe you should have called it something else. But I love what you've done. It's surprisingly bug-free for this kind of game. Controls very well. Graphics were the only non-10 i gave because although they do the job fine they could do with improvement- a few textures here and there. Also the people I didn't like, I think you should have done them realistic with hair and stuff. Loved the radio station 'idea'. Very well done!

sudeki responds:

Thanks!!

[Metroid Chaser]

weird!

You have a really unique flare that makes your games kinda hard to review. This was a fun game, not much in it but plenty of replayability all the same. Needed more in the way of background music. And the metroid should have evolved like in the games (maybe even started firing). I thought it was all a bit too fast paced, I would have prefered it if samus wasn't the cursor but rather he followed the cursor. There could have been some kind of powerups. Weapons would be cool, not sure how you could do them though.

I guess my suggestion are futile cause this games pretty old now. Nice though ;)

C360 responds:

Nope. Not futile at all! =D

I'll make another!

A lot of people put in suggestions and yours help out a lot too.

Thanks,

[4 Tri Line Tool v1.8]

Interesting program

Pretty pointless, but a nice little system that's pretty fun to play about with for a while. Most people won't get it and rate it low. I'm not saying I got it...but it was nice and original so I gave it a 5. It'll be interesting to see what you come up with next.

C360 responds:

Thanks. I wasn't so confident that it would stay on Newgrounds!
