[Typo-Negative]

fun but annoying

fun (i got 35th of all time with 6516 score)

but annoying.

i hate the way you have deliberately misspelled words in there to throw you off.

[T E T R I S ' D: The Game]

boring and featureless

i found the game to be boring.

no sound effects. no real graphics. (death animations etc.)

frequently, the roll/climb thing didn't work

just wasn't that fun overall.

[Vector Conflict The Siege]

great sound vector graphics st yle

sound and weapon effects were top notch
everyone likes vector graphics

wish there were more upgrades though..

some ideas:
upgrade the rate that your turret rotates
upgrade the radar (with a really expensive upgrade) that lets you detect those undetectable guys
purchaseble drones that go out and help you

dual guns would be cool too.

[Colour My World]

good not great

would have been a lot better if there were powerups and weapons.

also being able to upgrade your weapons to shoot multiple cruise missiles and heavy armor and night vision upgrades. in addition there should have been monsters to slay on the way and vehicles (tanks aircraft etc.)

[Jump 'n Gun]

passable with some problems

i'd have given this an 8 or 9 out of 10 if a couple gameplay issues had been done correctly

the timer was a pointless nuisance.

since you have infinite lives.. the timer simply means that sometimes when you have 30 or so seconds left right at a death, you need to sit there and just wait for the clock to run down since attempting the level is pointless.

timer should just be removed or it should count in the opposite direction and be used for score purposes.

need health. running through a level just to die instantly because you were a couple pixels to the left and bumped into a spike accidentally is pretty frustrating. it doesn't fall into the category of what i consider "fun difficulty" but rather falls into what i call "tedious difficulty"

sound effects and graphics were pretty good, though the music becomes unbearable after a few minutes.

SO SO

not that great. i guess i'll take the time to tell you why

-controls: space to fire is not fun. would be a lot better if you moved with WASD and aimed and fired with the mouse

-shop/menu system was unclear. took me a second to figure out that i was just upgrading the weapons and not buying them.

-unclear font on numbers

-using your health to buy stuff wasn't a very good idea.. it gives you no incentive to kill.

-very boring and repetitive. especially at level 16. progressing to 17 would require you to run around and shoot stuff for 15 minutes which was boring.

-not many weapon types and the upgrade system was too simplistic

graphics and sound were fine though.

weapon graphics and animation weren't very creative though.

[Arthropod Armada]

i'm speechless

i'm not normally a fan of arcade shooters but this even less my taste than usual.

you die quickly and instantly upon any contact whatsoever... wut?

no continues or retries. also no upgrade system.

just way too difficult and not pleasing.

when you make contact with an enemy ship or projectile, the contact doesn't even finish. the ships just reach each other's edge.. and it freezes and u die. that's very unappealing. at least have a real crash through.

sorry i had to rate this a 1/5.

also no pause or mute and the first boss laser.. wut?

[Deep]

mediocre

difficulty scaled too fast and there was no way to start a new game.

you always started with your previous upgrades. even when i cleared all my browser information i was unable to start a fresh new game.

[Box Office]

too difficult

the goal of the game appears to be upgrading, yet upgrading just makes the game harder.

i'd say the biggest problem was having to differentiate between vip and normal tickets. they don't even have vip tickets at theatres, so i'd take that option out completely. it wasn't fun.
