Dew's game Reviews on Newgrounds

[Stunt Pilot Trainer]

Alright.

Now to start off, this is definatley a well made game. The graphics in this game are top notch, not something that you would play just to see, but at the level where everythingi s detailed and everything looks wonderfull. Nontheless, the gameplay in this submission is awesome, not only is it easy to learn, but when you do learn this game is a lot of fun to play. Although it probebley would have done better if you just made the levels continous and put it in a race format. Overall, you made a great fun game that really has a lot of good to it. Nice job.

[Ball's Super Saga]

Fun.

To start off, I do have to say that this submission has been made very niceley. The graphics are smooth and sleek, and they are detailed enough to add to the gameplay. As for the gameplay, I do have to say that it's a good submission, but again, something is missing. Maybe it's highscores maybe it's a timer of some sort, but nontheless the submission lacks something. Overall, well this is niceley made, and I liked it, but there just isn't enough for the player to keep playing it longer, above average game.

[A Tracing Tutorial]

Alright.

I suppose I can dig this, this makes sense. The techniques make sense and they are helpfull for compleatley new people, but who in the art of flash dosen't trace in some sort of way? Nontheless, this tutorial was quite small, sure the individual effort was great, but the topic is quite bland and that equaled a lesser value in my eyes. The dick joke in the front also didin't really impress me, simply because I didin't even look at the picture untill I read the message. Nontheless, this submission is helpfull, but the topic is just not there. Overall, well what can I say? A well made, but bland idea.

[DeathZone]

Ok.

Well I can't say that I personally enjoyed this game. It was made well, but it left something to be disired, to be honest with you. The graphics in the game were top notch, I was actually impressed at the smooth movements of the sticks and the player itself. The instructions I thought were a bit vague, I had to die two times before figuring out I could move. And it would have been so much easier to just use the arrow keys instead of the current ones, that or use both. This game was fun, but the story was lackluster and it really didin't provide that scary feeling. Overall, well what can I say this really wasn't all that great, it was made well, but it just didin't provide that much fun. Meh.

[Flash Geometry Wars]

Beutifull.

The one word that sums this submission up is ; beutifull. The submission itself isn't bad, but there really isn't anything else there that will entertain the user. Sure the explosions are great, and a lot of fun, but that's really the only thing that's there. The graphcis were stunning and I loved the overall look of the submission, even though the gameplay was seriously lacking. I did like the personality of the submission, an extra affect. It would have been nice to have universal highscores though, I mean a personal best is great, but it's nothing like universal stuff. Overall, good stuff, a bit lacking in places, but made well and lots of fun.

[Big Beginner Tutorial]

Helpfull, but. ..

Although this is a helpfull tutorial by all means, something is missing. The effort isn't fully there, and I can see that by the spelling mistakes, not to mention the fact that you only worked on it for two days. Nontheless, the graphics were nice, they looked sleek and very techy, although the spelling mistakes really hurt the overall quality of it. Nontheless, the tutorials were quick and precise and that's good, since you don't want anyone to have any problems. Overall, this is definatley a helpfull submission, but the effort isn't totally there, and that hurts the submission.

Hey, thanks for the review. i only done this in two days because they two days were the weekend and therefor the only days i had time to actually make something. that would also explain the spelling mistakes :P

[Don't Drop the Ball!]

Intresting.

Although I can't say that I would ever spend a large portion of time on this submission, it certinly was a fun time. The graphisc in the game were unique, but solid and smooth and the same time. They did the job they had to do, and they did it well. As for the gameplay, it was fun, simple and easy to learn. I even laughed when I fell for that trick at the start, where you put it in the center instead of the pan. It would be nice to have some sort of highscores table or something, just to add a bit more reward to it. Overall, well, you made a good fun and orginal game. Nice job.

[PALADIN: the Game]

Good stuff.

Although I can't say that I enjoyed this game very much, I can say that it was made very well. The graphics in the game were solid, smooth and sleek, but only that, the movement in general was something to behold, and even that was very smooth and sleek. The gameplay in general was another fun feat to play, although it seemed a bit hard in the beginning, there more then enough to keep you playing with several different ways to attack and fun to have. Although again, at the start it seemed a bit slow, especially in the learning start, I was more in awe of the greatness of the submission then actually the fun.

Good:
1. Graphics- top notch
2. Solid movement- Player moved well, and it really looked great.
3. Good story- Storyline emmersed the player, and it really helped out the overall fun.
4. Series?- Everyone likes more then one flash in a group.

Bad:
1. The start seemed a bit slow.
2. As well as hard, surprisingley.

On top of all that, the hittable items in the game really added another level of depth in the fun, I mean how many games really have that?

Overall, I have to say that this game is truly top notch stuff, and well deserving of top game on NG. Everything looked great in the submission, even the menus, which were done very niceley, especially. All in all, this is really just a very niceley made game that is simply put: great.

My personal reflection on this submission is simple. Although I truly praise the game for it's awesomness, because it is top notch, I really didin't like it. Maybe it's because of how long the game is. I am used to short games, and a short amount of fun, and personally I don't have the time to waste hours upon hours, even with saves on this game. I am sure there is an audiance for that, just not here. I am still amased at the awesomeness of this submission though, especially the walking movements of the player. Truly magnificant stuff there. I also did like the option to change the difficulty, and that is really where I probebley benefitted most from this game. Will I ever come back to this game? There is a good chance that I won't ever come back to this game, simply because of it's length, and by the time I review I am done with it. There are games I have come back to, but this is not it.

Again though, good game, just not my thing.

[arm wrestle my ego V3]

Orginal.

Now this is definatley one of the more orginal submissions on today's NG. I enjoyed it emmensley simply for the uniqueness of it, but not only that, but for the fun of it too. The game's graphics were actually real which is basically as top notch as you can get, and again it's not something you would expect from a game. Nontheless the mechanics of this game work very well, and is a lot of fun to do. Although I can't say that I would play this game forever, it was a lot of fun. Maybe some sort of highscores table should be established. Overall, great stuff, orginal, works well, and is great fun to play. Nice work.
