violet5100's game Reviews on Newgrounds

[Berzerk Ball 2]

I'm going to admit right now, The phone version of this game is rather lame in the sense that it's about 10 times easier to land perfect hits. This version is actually not bad. It's more of a challenge to land a good hit and it looks just as good. Overall, The game is well polished, And I LOVE beating the living crap out of the nerd in the "Cloud" knockoff (Which I nicknamed "Dirt"... lol.).

As for faults, There are a few bugs in some of the hits where if you get to max speed he just won't slow down, Or some sort of anti-cheating measure which can sometimes halt you in your tracks if you're doing TOO good. (Ether that or a glitch.)

Aside from a few minor faults, I'd say this is one game to play through and have fun with!

[AEvil]

Considering the age of which this flash is, I find it actually pretty good. It had a lot of love put into it. The music was pretty good as well as the graphics to some degree. To be honest, I've seen much worse than this.

Also, As a little fact, This isn't the first game on NEWGROUNDS as a whole, But rather the oldest game from newgrounds or possibly the first game of the 2000 series of newgrounds. Tom has had newgrounds since somewhere in the 1990s (1997 or 98 I believe. Possibly longer.) .

⋆==== The more you know...

[Kill Assistant Cook]

Crude animations, Bad sounds, Lame deaths.

You put in no effort, No love, No care. Honestly, This is one of those games that should have never made it past judgement.

[Idle Planet]

I have to say that a game like this is rather rare in the high rankings. I personally enjoy it as a planet simulator, And one of those background running games that can almost play itself. One thing that I actually don't like however, Is the clicking system. I don't really like cookie or pizza clicker because of its repetitive, And mouse breaking gameplay, But I feel that this game does it a bit better, Giving you more than just a "click" score. Although, On that note, I don't fully grasp the entire mechanics that runs the game, And don't really know how to advance past the modern city era. Also, After a while of populating the planet, The other things that clicking does seem pointless.

I'm actually quite torn about this game in opinion as half of it is actually really fun, While the other half is just a "Click here, Get more clicks" style game. What I would say is make this a bit more like something of sim earth and give us the ability to modify the atmospheric conditions, Flora, Fauna, and other modifiers to create our own custom and home-grown worlds. Till then, I give you a 3 1/2 stars for both effort, Care, and love you put into this game to make it what it is.

[Save Them]

The game seems a bit harder than it should be. Honestly, I don't actually feel like I'm able to control anything but the doors, Which is rather frustrating when combined with the strange, Almost random walk path the AI takes. I noticed the floor panel controllers which you use to guide the AI with, But it doesn't seem to place where I click. For a 48 hour game, I want to say it seems fine, But I just can't bring myself to excuse most of the rather game-breaking problems.

[Space Miners]

This is a rather interesting game. Its almost like a mix of Asteroids, Snake, And another flash game that I used to play called "Disputed Galaxy" (RIP Disputed Galaxy.) . The gameplay seems sound enough, But the lack of sound does affect the overall feel of the game, And the lacking of sounds bumps me out of the game. Another thing is controlls. While there isn't anything wrong with them in terms of controlling the ship... The problem I have is the following rocks/ore which confuse me as they're looping all over the screen. By the time I reach 15 rocks/ores, I have no idea where my ship is. This game has a lot of good potential, And I'd hate for it to be overlooked or shot down by hardasses who have higher expectations from people then is reasonable to assume. Keep on at it, And I'm sure you'll make something epic.

[Fate Machine 1.0]

Pretty sure I've got a good one here...

My name is... Johnny Optimus Prime, The Bloodthirsty Magician. My destiny is to shoot gold pieces at Diarrhea.

Great gadget. Love it. :3

[robotman [Demo]]

I would like to say that this game would be great when its finished, And this demo isn't that bad, But I also have to agree with Exedor. Newgrounds isn't ment for test levels of this size. If it was 2 or 3 levels and a bit more complete, Then I could justify giving you more then a single star.

I'm going to give you one star, And I hope that next time you upload something of a "test" or "demo" that it is longer and has more features to it.

With Love: Violet

PS: Don't get me wrong, I really like that you're checking the community for feedback before progressing but, This is VERY early.

[Mutt Hoss]

Well, I'm at a loss for words on this. I guess one thing I can say is that this "game" has to be one of the most nonsensical and completely random games I've ever played. Sadly, I did play this till the end, And unless you do acid or any other LCD filled drug, This game is not for you.

Infact, I'd say this game isn't even a druggy game. I'd just class this under the 10% - 15% of flash submissions that somehow make its way past the screening process.

All else aside, The music is kinda catchy, But not worth a star.

You will get 0 stars this day, And may I also add that we should all...

BLAM THIS PIECE OF CRAP.

Thank you.

It's nice that you took the time to make full coherent sentences and see if your browser gave you the little red squigglies under your words. What's not coherent is you and the others who agree with your feedback without going anywhere with it. Games are meant to be fun to make, and to share. You make it out to be as if it's some sort of science. Through the whole review you never explain why the game is a "game" and what you need to get it out of quotations.

If it had a bad rating it would've gotten some worst submission of the week award, but it didn't. Notice the first review is nearly 2 seasons after passing being uploaded. I personally would've prefered you and the others stayed silent for your dislike, or go prey on my other submission since well, it's pretty much my first game. People really like to attack first games. They'll ask, why even release a first game? It's for posterity. This is as well.

This game was fun to make, and created by me in my spare time for my own enjoyment. I put some good work into it despite it being a busy time, and was proud of it and liked the silence. Everyone talks about how horrible it is but doesn't give a good reason why.

I mean, you get the disclaimer to leave constructive reviews. In order for me or others to improve as a developer, you should improve on your sentence-coherent but otherwise lengthier version of all the other self proclaimed commentators below, and potentially above. And make use out of the words. Write a book, or a memoir. Anything instead of taking the time to spit on a work just because you don't understand it.

[Dippy's Point 'n Click]

Fun, but short. 3 1/2... Not really much else to say past the exit was to easy to crack. Perhaps add some more elaborate puzzles in.

again 3 1/2 stars.
