Emasher's game Reviews on Newgrounds

[Andagel]

A few problems.

From what I've played of this, its pretty amazing for a flash game. The music is also really good, it reminded my of Metroid Prime 3.

The thing is though, I'm getting error codes every few seconds, I'm not sure if its just a problem with using it in Flash Player 10 or what.

The other problem with making a game like this in Flash is, unless you're on brand new hardware, the game lags so much its pretty much unplayable.

So great effort, and I hope you keep making stuff like this, but it still needs some work.

[How to Keep an Idiot Busy]

Meh.

I've seen better versions of this joke.

The only problem is (on the Mac version of flash player anyway) when the right click menu is up, everything temporarily freezes. So you can just do that, position the mouse over one of the "buttons" and double click to press one of them. I don't think there's anything you can do about this but I just thought I'd mention it. I don't think this happens in the windows version but I could be wrong. I can be useful sometimes for pausing a game that doesn't have pause in it.

The actual flash is good though. The graphics were decent enough, keep trying and you might be able to make something really good.

It needs some work.

This kind of game has been done too many times before. You may have also wanted to include level codes or something so the player doesn't always have to start from the first level every time they die. Never use Papyrus, its way out of style now. The obvious bevels used on the goal are also a little bit dated. The Background would have been better a little simpler I think also. I liked the way you did the walls though. One other thing would be to add a rectangle in the "Hit" frame of the text buttons to make them easier to click.

It need some work, but keep trying.

I don't care about what is "in" style. I personally love Papyrus!

and as for the level codes, thanks I hadn't thought of that

[SILLY BLOB]

Good Engine.

This was a great engine and I'm sure it took a long time to develop. I hope you go on to make a proper game with this. Perhaps a platformer. There really isn't much else that can be said about it. Its a good start, now do something with it.

took like 2 days

[Flash Runner]

Awesome

That was really good. It needs no improvement. Though if you do decide to make some, I'd say just work on the graphical side of things. Perhaps change the colour of the dust, and add more detail to the grass and roads. Perhaps you could also have a few more songs thrown in too.

[50 Quickshot]

Ok.

It really needed a background. Just a black screen made it a bit boring. Perhaps making the targets start out a little bigger would improve it also.

[The NERD Quiz!]

More like the Chav quiz.

I've seen much better. Most of the stuff on here is something any random chav would know. This kinda thing isn't really something anyone can do, you have to really know what you're talking about to pull something like this off well. There really should have been more stuff about gaming and computer related stuff (and not stuff everyone would know) Better questions might be something like, What company invented the GUI? or What is the Maximum resolution the Wii can output? But if you ask questions about movies and TV shows, especially ones alot of people will have seen, everyone will know the answers.

I also found the voice overs were annoying, you probably should have just put text instructions. The interface is also something that could use some work.

[Clickr]

Kinda boring.

The game just seemed a little empty. It perhaps would have been better if you jazzed it up graphically, or perhaps added some more complex levels. Maybe the buttons could move or something.

[Sea Invaders]

Medicore

It needed sound, It would have been alot better just with that. Also I'd map the movement to the arrow keys and shooting to the space bar. The shields were also a little big and close together. Other than that it could have used slightly more detailed graphics. But at the end of the day, its just space invaders.

[Hikouki II]

Great Game

I like this kind of game, a few suggestions would be to make the ship move faster and make the weapon fire slightly more frequently.
