[Black Knight:Insurrection]

bug

fun but problem: when you beat a level and the menu pops up if you select "level select" it takes you to the level selection screen but with the level you just beat still locked. so you have to beat it again.

[SeppuKuties]

wow. stupid

the lives mechanic is really stupid. you shouldn't be punished for success. but you are.

if you do well in levels then hit a lvl and lose all ur lives.. you can't go back and do better when you already got A's on all the previous ones.. so you're screwed.

this is not the type of game where you give a limited (and very small) amount of lives to beat the whole game.

this game fails bigtime.

The-EXP responds:

...you can go back and reclaim lives by ding better on previous levels. It's pretty simple really. Re-read your review title :p
Thanks for trying though...

[Sift Heads 4]

nice

i thought the way you'd tell us to assassinate someone then not tell us who our target was so we had to just play the mission over and over till we killed the right person was really logical.

oh ya and how we start the game with a gun and some bullets.. you finish that first mission then suddenly u have no gun or bullets and have to buy one. so what did you start off with? that makes a lot of sense.

yeah really this game is some decent (not great) graphics and not much else.

doesn't load

When I run this game it just loads a white screen with a version # in the lower left corner.

I have the latest version of flash and no issues on my end.

Is anyone else able to load this as of my review?

People are pissed about the site redirect.. is that a popup and does it occur at the very start of the game?

[Co-operation]

well

getting the guy to give you a boost to jump up hardly ever works 99 times out of 100 he just jumps normally and the other guy stops maintaining the boost position.

is there a trick for beating the game with this function not even implemented properly due to the author's shitty programming skills?

re author: who knows and why should i care? i'm probably the only real gamer out of everyone whose played this game tbh and i'm definitely smarter than any of those other reviewers.

I-smel responds:

If my programming skills are so shitty, why is this the first complaint I've had about the control system in 140 reviews?

[Death Dice Overdose]

need health

game would be much more fun if you had some health or lives and they could possibly be regained during play

this would probably make this a different type of game altogether, but i sure would have enjoyed it more.

[Warlords: Heroes]

REVIEW

i don't like how you come to a horizontal stall during jumps. it makes them worthless because they are much slower than blocking.

also the way you automatically turn to face the enemy combined with the fact that your block also blocks attacks from the rear amount to the combat being unrealistic and more or less not depending on the direction of the enemy.

nice art, music, sound, and gameplay for the most part.

[Ge.ne.sis: Alpha Demo]

music.. just bleh

music just hurts your ears after 15 seconds of it. can't really stand it at all. need something more ambient. and the loop is far too short. but the main problem with it is the way it blares and stands out without being good enough to justify it.

the game runs smoothly and the graphics are decent though. i'll probably give this a more thorough playthrough with the sound off.

[Armor Picross 2]

it's nice

i found this game on newgrounds almost a year ago. been loading it up and beating a level or two every once in awhile. at this point i've got quite a few done including all the hardest ones on extreme. maybe someday i'll have em all beaten. i don't know.

never bothered to review it though. it's very smooth and i like the music.

well

assuming the coins were worth .01 of a bill value, your game was flawed.

since it probably wasn't, that means you're using some weird currency that doesn't work like dollars and cents (100 cents per dollar)

so how about explaining the currency. i don't know where that currency is from.. nor do i care in the SLIGHTEST. how about have a damn clue what audience you're aiming for when you make a game?
