Dew's game Reviews on Newgrounds

[Tweening Tut.]

Hm.

Im all up for tutorials as much as the next guy, but I dont need to be insulted at. What tutorial finishes off with "you idiots" If I were a beginner I would personally just forget what you say and move on to a different one. Anyway the idea you picked is fairly simple to do, but you could have helped a person with this. Maybe next time make mroe then one thing in your submission, and just make buttons to choose it. As well as spell check, even if it is one or two words it still seems like you dont know what your talking about if you dont spell right. Not only that, but maybe next time make a smoother looking stickman, it just seems like you dont know to much about flash ether that way. All in all, helpful, to some degree just not that well done.

nice long review

[Cool Pong]

Pong?

I understand that it is just game you have worked on in school, but still pong? Does it really have to be pong of all things? What I notice is that your second version is the same thing as your first version, the only differnce is that you added some odd looking backgrounds, which look nice, but dont fit in well with the submission. Now dont get me wrong pong isnt all that bad, but the game was made 50 years ago, think up something different next time. Average submission, at best.

Ringwraith1 responds:

This is my first shot at making a game so I wanted to start with something easy, and just add my own twist to it. I deleted the older version, because I realized that it was pointless to have it.

[Search 1.1]

Exactley whats the point?

Why would I go to a flasdh to search up somthing if I can easily just go to the search button by clicking on google, or yahoo or whoever. How will this help me get things done any faster? Is what I would say to myself if I made this, now I would have been impressed if you had done actually in the flash, where the search material appears in it, but you didint so I dont really see a point in this flash, at least not for any practical use. Meh.

flash4newgrounds responds:

the downloadable version will have a point because you wont even need to go through opening the internet explorer or firefox, all you need to do is click on that, click on what search enging you want and it searches! so this will have a point.

[Mario Point! Mario Click!]

Meh.

I suppose it's alright for a first timer, but all in all it really isnt that good. There isnt any point to it whatsoever, mainly because you have no highscores. If you put highscores in then there would be a point in playing this game. The graphics werent yours so I cant give you points for that, the idea isnt bad, but maybe try adding things like flashing questions or different backgrounds or something extra other then just that one scene. All in all its an okay game, but it really needs a lot of work.

PerfectChubby responds:

Thanks for the feedback! Honestly though the artwork is all mine, I just used other pictures as a guide. And animations and new things will be on the way, once I figure it out. :)

[Insane Mouse Game]

Come on...

Is this really something you spent a good time on? Sure you were new at it, but still the basic idea is very boring and unorginal. A maze and a mouse, its just way to easy. Not only that, but you could easily just skip forward through the levels if you wanted to, which kinda makes actually playing the game redundant. Despite that theres no real story or anything so you dont even have a point in playing the game. All in all a below average game.

Koeberto190 responds:

Yes I know it sucks, did you even read the authors comments? This was one of the first things I ever made, and I just felt like submiting it to se if it passes, and it did, so I'm happy.

[Shogun]

Well..

Well, what you got here is an okay game. I would not call this a great game, but one that definatley deserves to be in the portal. Despite that this game needs serious improvement. For one, you need better graphics, refine it a bit, shade a bit more. Two you need to make the gameplay a bit better. There should be a time limit for the shooting thing too. Since you could easily just wait and shoot at the people. All in all though it isnt horrible for a first time. But its still not average level.

Sanjur0 responds:

Thank u for responding, and i agree with you, but just so you know, i'm still working on this game, i follow tutorials and keep improving my skills. so when this game is improved, i will upload it again ;)

[Bounce Bounce 2.5]

Good work.

When you go all out, adding that extra bit in a game, you have what I call a good effort. If games could be created with a snap of a finger then what you have here would be great, but the idea is ust to plain and simple. I give you points for the story, background and new simple mode, but all in all its still just a bouncing ball. And when you get right down to it, the idea is orginal, just not that fun. Okay game. but nothing special.

NICFLIC responds:

Thanks for the effort points I guess.

[Windows VIRUS]

Not enough.

Seriousley, this game just dosent have enough to it to really be a good game. Sure the idea is good and the game isnt horrible. There just dosent seem to be enough appeal to it. The error messages werent created by you, and the background wasnt created by you. I did like the shut down animation, next time add more of that. All in all a below average submission.

AndrewGlisson11 responds:

the error messages wern't drawn by me, but i still made them.

[Cow Tippin']

Fun.

Even though this submission isnt the gretest submission out there, it is quite good. The gameplay is orginal and fun and has been made quite well. The graphics in the game are also very well done and add to the already superb gameplay. The game was simple to pick up too. So all in all a good, fun submission.

Nuggs responds:

Its nice to hear that the game play was easy to pick up, because some of the people who tested the game had a problem figuring out what to do without rereading the instructions.

[360 Defence]

Okay.

This is one of those games that gets an "Oh, nice." type rating. Sure everything looks and plays great, but the player dosent really care for it. Nonetheless the graphics were very good, they were practically flawless. Not to mention smooth and just plain awesome looking. Although there was no real point in playing as the game didint provide alot of gameplay depth. I mean where are the powerups? The upgrades, one power up for 20 seconds. Wow that does alot. Anyway you have a great, but boring game here. Just add more to it.

itsjms responds:

Thanks for the review ^^!
