Dew's game Reviews on Newgrounds

[Extinct]

Good stuff.

Now this is what a flash game is supposed to be. You have a fun time without wasting an hour or two doing it it. I personally found it a bit slow though, maybe next time if you speeded it up that would be nice. This game is so simple to pick up and play that I really enjoyed it. The highscores really adds that extra bit to the game that makes it even better too. Not to mention the graphics and animation in general which are also done very well. All in all you did a really good jov. Good stuff.

RobbieSkater responds:

Thanks for the review. Glad you like it. Try lowering the quality if it runs slow.

[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

[Firework Avoidance]

Well..

Well this game is really quite boring. It would be nice if you could see a health bar or something or even just your rank before you start, or during. I played for a minute or so and it seemed like all I had to do was go to the top of the game and I would never get hit. The game itself isnt badly done, but without a definate showing of scores or somthing then there really dosent seem to be that much of a point to this game. I did like the graphics though, maybe some different types of fireworks or somthing. Not bad.

[Pojuko]

A bit confusing..

A bit confusing to start off the game, and a shit load of reading in my opinon, but all in all you made a good game with good graphics and good mechanics. Good job.

[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.

[Get the Coin]

Meh.

Well this is just another flash in my opinon. What exactley sets this apart from any other flash submission I have seen so far? The idea isnt bad, I mean this could be really good, but the characters and the surrondings arent very nice looking, or well made. For some reason you put in test in your submission, which seems kinda dumb in my eyes since you shouldent have any problems when submitting your flash. Next time spruce up your flash, make it look better, so it will keep my attention longer. Meh.

[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.

[6 short tutorials]

Well, a bad tutorial.

There is really no other way to say it, its a simple, and bad tutorial. For one you didint spell everything right. Could it have hurt you to look up adjust on google? In my opinon this really isnt a tutorial anyway since all you gave me was a bunch of codes. If I needed those codes I would look them up, I really dont need to see it in horrible green writing. Next time actually show us the end result, at least that would improve quality. Poor submission.

[Mechanoids]

A bit glitchy.

Well this is one of those games that you play once and never go back to again. Although that isnt my fault, that is the way it is. If you had fixed it up a bit so it wouldent screw up after one game then I would give you a much better score. I played it once and the start button didint work, I clicked rewind, and the point system didint work, this game needs serious work. On top of that I would suggest highscores, theres no point in playing otherwise. All in all a below average game.
