"Not bad..."

submission: Mighty Spidy

date: March 28, 2008

I've always loved physics based games and this one is pretty good. It is an original idea and is well executed but it does have a few problems. The fact that you fire webs AND steer your spider using the mouse button is ver y annoying when you're trying to get the spider to go up through a small gap when he's on a surface means that he spasms about as you try to line it up causing you to hit
the block.

This is probably just me but I had a hard time trying to figure out what was background, an enemy or a powerup.
Some of the background looked like it could kill me such as the bee hives, which don't hurt you and sometimes the spider woudln't fire the web when I told it to, causing me to fall and sometimes fall into water.

Graphics - 7 Good detail

Sound - 9 The music was fun and sounded like something you woudl find a a Sims game. I liked it

Gameplay - 8 A few problems but overall very good

Good points:
Good physics based game
Fun
Good sound and graphics

Bad points:
Annoying controls
A few problems (such as the web not firing when told)
Easy even on hard mode
No highscore against other players

How to Improve:
Possibly make a control option where you can either control the spider with the mouse or with the direction buttons?
Have a highscore board where you can contend with other players?
How about a Challenge Mode? ( Such as finish the level without getting hit or navigate through this maze within 2 minute)

Overall - 7
It's not a perfect game but it is a great start if you want to make a sequel
Nice one Michael.

"It's back..."

submission: Boxhead The Zombie Wars

date: March 28, 2008

The new Boxhead is back and it's terrific.
Alot has changed from the last one such as weapons, maps and zombie types but it's good to see the series is still going.

The new ability to build up bases is a great idea but is slightly hindered by the fact that you don't have much time to build up a base since the zombie waves have little space in between and since the zombies are more preoccupied with chewing up your unfinished barricade rather than attack you when you're standing next to them it detracts from the fun a bit.

Now that you get to fight 5 different zombie types rather than 2 gives the game a bit more challenge and strategy but if you want to fight the classic mindless hordes of the old games then it doesn't stop you.
One part of the game which I really love is the fact you can configure the game enemies and speed. This allows you to fight only one type of zombie if you want to and adds to the replay factor.

Sound - 8 Good gun sounds and item sounds. No background music though
Graphics - 8 Typical Boxhead graphics which are very good
Gameplay - 9 Has replay potential, fun and exciting

Good points:
Replay Potential
Great Graphics and sound
Can be played as a defense or a shoot em up
Very smooth even with so many zombies on the screen
Great choice of weapons
Great variaty of zombie

Bad points:
No background music
What happened to the 2 player option?

How to improve:
With a game like this, it's always best when you've got a friend to play alongside you, like in Boxhead 2play. This game doesn't seem like a step backwards from that but a step in another direction, towards defense games. I'd like to see a defense game which you can have a 2player option and Boxhead has that potential but I won't mind if you don't do it.

You excelled yourself Sean
Overall - 9
Keep up the good work.

Score: 8

"Fun little timewaster"

submission: Tangerine Panic

date: March 28, 2008

I'd just like to first off say that I've played this game before but I don't know if you made that game or not so I wont throw accusations about.
Dodging Tangerines... that's a very original idea but it's great!
It's a great game for the first few times that you play it since it is humourous and easy to pick up but it does get repetitive afterwards.

Graphics - 5 Very simplistic, but that's all the game needs.
Sound - 7 The music is good and goes well with the game
Gameplay - 8 Fun but does get repetitive when you play it for a while

Good points:
Good music
Good gameplay

Bad points:
Gets boring after a while

How to improve:
I'm not sure how you can improve a game like this since there isn't much to the game hence not much to tweak. Though I did notice that when you restarted the game by pressing space your guy stopped speaking like he did the first time. It's a minor problem and I would survive if you didn't fix it.

Overall - 8
I like this game, it's good for what it is and that's a small timewaster.

Good job Gaz.

Score: 3

"Booooring"

submission: Mysteryville

date: March 27, 2008

I hate to spoil it for all you people who havn't played this but all you do is click the objects it tells you to. That's all you do for the game, not like it's long or anything. It has 8 levels I think, each lasting 2 minutes of the same repetitive gameplay.

As far as a plot goes it''s very weak, only talking about some journalist who wants to find out who is stealing some of the villages cats or something.
And that's not all, it's a Demo!
It costs $20 if you were foolish enough to buy the full game which I'm positive would be no different from this.

"Featuring hours of seek and find fun" it says in the authors comments and I want to know where all these hours of gameplay went when I finished it in 15 minutes. You don't "Question" anyone, you dont "Visit" any shops like the Authors comments say you read some dialouge and click on objects, that's it.

Graphics - 8, Pretty good graphics
Sound - 4 ,No talking, only that background loop
Gameplay - 1, Very simplistic, very boring, no variation

Good points:
Decent graphics

Bad points:
Boring
Repetitive
No dialouge, only a loop
a Demo!

How to improve:
If you're going to make it into a detective game then allow us to interrogate characters, or use items ro something! At the moment the whole detective part just seems like a shameful front for a boring "Find the objects game"

Overall - 3
It's clear you tried but nothing is really achieved in this game it's not exciting in any way, the plot isn't interesting, the characters arn't bizarre and I wanna know where these hours of seek and fun are because that's the only mystery around here.

Score: 8

"Epic..."

submission: Light people on Fire

date: January 11, 2008

Oh the joy of chasing after innocent people as a man on fire trying to murder them.

The animation was simple and perfect for this game. 9/10
The music was great and was one of the main additions to the humour 9/10
Humourwise, this game was great 10/10

It had a few drawbacks though:
It was very short and loses its charm after playing it a few times, this causes the game to lose some points

Suggestions:
A Sandbox mode maybe, where you could spawn as many people as you wanted without a time limit.
A few more levels and larger levels would be good.

Overall:
Great game, with a few additions you could make a great sequel.

Score: 10

"Very good."

submission: Newgrounds Rumble

date: September 27, 2007

This flash has just about everything that a fighting game should have.
What I would recommend would possibly be more variation in advantages and disadvantages.
Regarding Hank, he is an awesome character when you get used to his attacks and his last level is a great change from the other Stages.
I think you should make another survival mode where you have to fight off as many Madness guys as you can until you die, Sort of like in Hanks final Stage.

Verdict:
The best fighting game and possibly the best game on NG. If you keep adding new characters and maps, it will be awesome. =D

Score: 7

"Well that was fun"

submission: The Impossible Quiz

date: February 23, 2007

This game is completely and utterly fun and annoying at the very same time. The questions are funny, clever and random which make a good combo. problem is that you need a save feature! I've been driven out of my mind by the sheer fact ive had to restart so many times. Overall very good and i hope you make another

Trigger

P.s. to tm0use342 you sir really need to check all possibilites before you give low marks. Next time read the question alot more carefully and the answers arnt always in the boxes. so good luck with that

Score: 7
