Dew's game Reviews on Newgrounds

[Hex Vex]

A bit unorginal, no?

I have to be honest with you here, as I always am, but don't you think this submission is a bit unorginal? I mean the gameplay is well made, and the game is well made in general, but I can't help, but shake the fact that this submission is somehow been done before. I can say that it was quite challenging. Good work.

[Last Journey]

Huh.

I understand you lost someone close to you, and it's nice that you made something for him, but that dosen't change the fact that this wasn't fun in the least way. I suppose it did suceed in making a relaxing game, but other then that there really wasn't a point to this game. The graphics were nice though.

[Lamp Word Search]

A bit dull.

Despite the fact that this submission has a serious flaw, the idea in general is pretty crappy. I mean, don't you remember doing word searches and stuff like that, in school and hating them? Nontheless the graphics weren't very good in this, and they didin't add to the overall fun of this submission. You could pretty much use hint the whole way through too, which is kinda lame. Not a fun submission.

[CTF The Silver Blade]

Not bad.

Although I didin't particularly like this submission, the idea was certinley a good, fun one. The gameplay seemed to lack real instructions though, I mean you kill guys and the time runs out, but then what? Nontheless, the graphics were ok, albeit a bit rough. A background maybe? Not bad submission.

[LazerBeamz]

Cool game.

I have to say that this is a very unique game, and is definatley worth the frontpage. The graphics are smooth and sleek and really do a great job in adding to the gameplay. As for the gameplay, it's slow to start up, but gives the user time to figure out how to play, and at the same time gets hard later on. Good work.

[MS01: Mini Skears]

Way to short.

This game is definatley way to short, and to be honest I don't understand how these submissions get 4+ scores continuously. Nontheless, you need to improve the graphics and make the text fairly pleasent to the eye. Maybe put all these submissions in one. Another so so submission.

AcidDimensions responds:

I think it got 3.2ish when it first passed judgement.

High scores on submissions this old means nothing and in this case is the result of upvoting by various people.

Though you may not have enjoyed this, I'm confident you'll love the upcoming edition.

[letters (demo)]

Huh.

Well I can't say that I enjoyed this submission, but I can say that it has potential. Basically if you made this like a DDR type of game then you would do a lot better then what you have here. Maybe some sort of highscores table too. Meh, another lackluster submission.

AcidDimensions responds:

Yeah, in today's light it's not too great. I only have youthful innocence and experimentation as an excuse.

[taiping v0.4]

What am I supposed to do?

Unless you switched this submission, which would be annoying, what am I supposed to do in this submission? Some letters come on screen, and then I die, not to mention I get a crude and terribly spelled I died message. Needs a lot of work.

AcidDimensions responds:

Type the letter that appear. Or don't bother playing.

Your choice.

[rol-ovir 2]

A bit the same.

One would think when you make a sequal that you make it a lot better. Sure in this submission there was more levels, but the spelling was still bad, there was no custimization and the graphics still were quite crude, not what you would call much of an improvement. Meh.

AcidDimensions responds:

Check the submission dates.

Given that there's 5-times the number of levels and the addition of red skears, I'm astonished that anyone would rate this lower than the original. Given that nothing became worse, it seems to me that this is clearly better.

[rol-ovir]

Cool.

Now this game definatley has potential, the idea of the game is neat, simple and fun to do. Although this one is short, more levels, custimization and possibly a highscores table would help this submission. Even though this game was short I had fun playing it, all in all, not a bad game it just needs some refining. And better spelling.

AcidDimensions responds:

Thanks for all the suggestions for improvement.

Not sure what you'd want to customise - the cursor? The graphics? There doesn't really seem to be a need.

I'm agreed on most other things and definitely the spelling.

Stay funky!
