[Stabika: 99 Red Balloons]

Cool

Hmm I sorta liked this game, its good, nice idea but there's no real depth or strategy to it, its mostly random clicking in my opinion. There was lag, a little bit, when i played, I suppose its the amount of objects flying across the screen at once, and also sometimes when i clicked the balloons they didnt pop and sometimes they did. Got a total of 52 seconds, epic fail.

Graphically its not bad, the balloon mines look pretty cool and the background is nicely drawn and shaded, but what's the relevance of the character in the middle, seemed to be stuck in there randomly, i know he is one of your characters but did he really need to be there? he blocks the balloons. He is drawn pretty well though. So good job on that.

the animation is good, well for the most part it is, apart from the lag on the first time i played the game the second time was fine, but the balloons move smoothly across the screen, and are easy to see. So good job on the animation.

the sound is pretty cool, maybe some balloon popping or mine exploding sound effects would of been nice, or an option to turn them on or off. I liked the music, I liked the fact you could have either the original German version or the English version. Nice touch.

Overall I liked this game, its a fun little time waster if you want to waste a minute or two. Its presented nicely, plays well and is a good concept, hope to see more games from you soon. Well done on this one. "Shadow-1409"

Matt-Porter responds:

Thanks again for the review, the Review Request Club seems to be giving some pretty in depth ones, I appreciate the amount of thought put into them. Some sound effects could have been cool, probably should have done that, still could if I wanted. The relevance of the character is that in our series Stabika, in the second episode in survival mode you have to duck those mine balloons. I figured for this mini game I would through him in surrounded by the balloons that we could say he hates (Seeing as they blow his face up) because A it was funny, and B it made the game slightly harder.

Anyway, thanks a ton for the review, check out Stabika 1 and 2 if you would like, there pretty decent work aside from the incredibly lower frame rate then expected. As for more games Stabika 3 is on it's way in just weeks at most and runs at great speeds compared to the others in the series and has a lot, lot more to do in it.

[Tic Tac Toe Cubed]

Hmmm

This was a really cool concept for a game, but it needs fine tunings. Firstly i thought it was noughts and crosses, not tic tac toe. But as the cube spins i cant really see wahts going on so maybe have solid backround on each of the cube faces.

Graphically it was ok, very simple though. Not really much more you could add to it. the animation was smooth on the spinning cube, so that was cool. nice music too.
Overall it was a pretty cool game, just needs a few finishing touches. Hope to see more!

I see... I could add some one-way faces to each side of the cube! Excellent!

[Evasion - Tequila]

Shadow-1409

Lol, my score was 777, anyway. This was a cool little simple game and ive seen games with this basic idea before. Dodge falling objects. Not bad i must say. Simple though.
The graphics werent the best, badish quality and the stickman was probably the best drawn thing in it. I found that i could move the stick without his legs moving, if i moved him a little bit at a time. This looked kinda weird.
The sound wasnt too bad, good song. ^_^
Not a bad game overall, maybe make another version with better graphics! :)

MinusNick responds:

I'm sad you didn't like the graphics :( But I'm glad you liked eveything else and gave me a 7! I can't really draw well, as that is a common denominator in all my animations. i really have to work on that...

[ExTreme ClOck SoUndboArd]

Not Bad

i liked this soundboard, the sounds were of good quality and clear and it was very funny, must have a go pranking someone with this later on :P
Im a big fan of the Clock Crew so i liked this. The layout and buttons sucked though. Fiz those and it'll be great.

Frenzy responds:

Thanks! This is one of my earlier soundboards.

[From Dusk Till Dawn SB]

Not Bad

This is a pretty cool soundboard, nice clear buttons so i could see what i was preesing and a good style to it. Next time maybe add more sound choices and it will be cooler. ^_^
Overall not bad though!

[Scottoons Cat-a-pult]

Not bad

A cool half original half remake of kitty cannon, this unlike ketty cannon allows you to get insanely high scores which i liked, makes me feel good at the game ^_^
Its a cool and fun game, that could be played once every now and again and not get boring, as its kind of addictive.

Graphically it was ok, as its such a simple game you probabaly could of put more effort into the graphics to make it look even better, im sure it wouldnt of been too difficult, the backrounds and objects are really simple but well enoughly drawn, just maybe eeds more detail to improve presentation!
The animation was good, nice explosions and the cat flying was smooth too. Not much else to say about that.

The sounds were alright, nicely placed sound effects with the cat and all the xplosions and whatnot, ^_^

Overall it was pretty good, not amazing, but good. id like to see more games from you soon mate!!

Scottoons responds:

Thank YOU, Shadow. Very encouraging. I plan on making some more games!

[NG Preloader: The Game2.5]

Pretty Cool In Theory.

Hmm overall a very good idea for a game, But some levels are just far too difficult. For example the falling buttons one and the wall of doom were practically impossible. Maybe lower the learning curve a little and it will be better.

Graphically, hmmm, well its just a bunch of PLAY buttons so theres not much i can say about the graphics, nice animation in button rotation as well. The sound was ok, nice tune behind the whole game.
Very cool idea for a game though, just needs to be tweaked a bit. Maybe have seperate levels for Easy, Medium and Hard. Looking forward to seeing another one!

Chaz-o responds:

Hmm... im hearing that alot, next time ill try making the levels much easier.

Alright, thanks for playing.

[Rockin 2 Fame]

Awesome Game

The main concept behind this game is very good. I liked the idea a lot. Its just like playing a mixed version of story mode from Singstar and Guitar Hero but in flash! Mostly the game was good. Nice and challenging but there were some downsides to it.

The graphics were good. Nicely drawn and were well drawn so they looked professional. The garaphics may of been good but the animation wasnt quite up to scratch. It could get a little bit choppy at points in the game but apart from that. Good.

The Sound was nice. Cool songs which were chosen from the audio portal? I liked you didnt sell out by using commercial songs. The sound effects and other music was alright too.

The gameplay let it down slightly. When walking around my room i found it annoying to get him to go where i wanted. The pool table lacked anything that would of made it worth playing and i dont know why there was a slot machine and a dress up game???
The actual guitar playing was awesome. Except for it didnt register my key inputs on time sometimes. And also there should be more than 2 game modes. Hit the arrows/Block the arrows.

Overall though it was an original and a cool game. Looking forward to seeing more from you! ^_^

Thanks for the review! The animation was only choppy because of computer performance. The slot and dress up was just to try and give the user more to do.

Thanks again.

[NG Tutorials: B/P Pts]

Nice Tutorial!

As a tutorial i'd say its pretty good although most NG users wont have any need for it. Very helpful to new members so they can understand the Blam/Save Process and wont get all confused as to what its all about. ^_^

Nicely made with lovely clear buttons and it accuratley describes which flashes are most likely to pass or not. A big help to newbies. The text is nice and clear against the backround which i'd recommend changing. It starts to anny you trying to read with a dirty spinning vortex in the backround.

The bad things about this is first off "was it really necessary"? this tutorial is going to appeal to a small percentage of NG users. As most people know about the ways of the portal. the music was nice but got on my nerves after a while, i suggest an -on-off- button for people who dont feel like listening. ^_^

Overall its a good tutorial for whoever may need to use it so nice work Yoshi.

THANKS ^^

[What an awesome Dress up]

Not bad for a Dress up game

Dress up games arent exactly my cup of tea with a side of digestive biscuits but this one wasnt too bad. Most dress up games you see on newgrounds tend to be porn related, with nothing but girls where you can take off thier panties. this however presented some nice qualities which i havent seen much of in other dress ups.

The first thing that i noticed when i opened it up was the music. Im a fan of metal but it sounded abominable. Maybe add some more music tracks so people wont all have to listen to that although the track got better as it went along. The graphics werent anything special but they were pleasant, nothing eye destroying thank god.

The clothes were good but not a wide selection. Some items i struggled to see where they would fit like the sword. Best item in there was the wings. I havent played many dress up games but i havent seen animated clothes you could put on so it was wicked to see that. One thing that disturbed me slightly was the lack of facial features. Theres no face option. Either mask or glasses. :P
The backrounds to the game were ok but there wasnt much variety in them.

Overall it wasnt the best dress up game ive played nor the worst. Above average to say the least but still good. I'd advise you to make more. And its not bad at all for a weeks worth of work. Overall its good :D

Mercenary81 responds:

The face thing seems to bug everyone , Im definitely going to remember to make some facial features next time around. The music track was really something last minute. I had clicked "submit something to portal" then was like...Crap! I need music! So i just went real quick and found something that seemed to fit, at least a little. Thanks for the review.
