TiredPaperBoy's game Reviews on Newgrounds

[Cursed Dungeon]

Discovered a fail state

Really good game, well put together and it just really works and is a lot of fun.

However, there's one problem that if you defeat a boss (in this case the wizard) and are able to advance to the next area, but you are not able to defeat the first monster, then you can't actually do a practice battle, and thus are left with no way to progress.

A tiny flaw, in a near perfect game.

AwokerR responds:

If you killed the boss, you were supposed to be able to kill a simple enemy.

[The Last Starfighter WIP]

Good start!

Ok, first of all I love the feel of it, the movement of the ship is nice, so are the hit detection zones, and as far as the core gameplay mechanics, it's solid.

But, obviously there is much to improve apon:
invulvrability after you get hit, it's a must otherwise a bad move can end the game instantly.
The size proportions of everything, while the current set up is a fun fast paced game, the general hit detection zones, rate of fire and size of projectiles and enemy ships, make it extremly difficult.
Art work could use some work, sounds needed some vareity.

Also power ups would make the game more playable, and have a longer life span... not upgrades just short term power ups maybe... meh

Good start.

MarkySpark responds:

I have taken everything you said onboard. Thanks

[The Plane Game]

Did not give credit

I believe that when you steal other artists work you have to give credit, somewhere within the flash.

I have not voted, however I didn't blow the whistle either because im not too sure on the specific rules, I'd post in the BBS and check with some admins/mods.

I'll be back... when you have

Nxttm responds:

Oops, thanks for reminding me, I have just put it in the author comments

[Magic Card Trick]

Not fooling me

Nope, since everyone of the cards change, its not a magic trick.

However to the unsuspecting it would probaly be clever and confusing, but now I have written this review they will facepalm when they read it.

But the game was well made and nicly animated and the code is good as the cards randomise everytime meaning that it took some time and skill to make, earning the stars above

BlueOrbit responds:

I would call it a magic trick because IMO "illusions" fall into the category of "magicians", but you have all the rights to disagree.

Yup, I facepalmed myself when I understood the "trick" when I first saw this trick.

Thank you for the review.

[Touring Car]

Bad

Stick to regular controls, the steering was anoying and a pain in the ass, the landscape looked like it was done in paint and the music was completely random to the game

Sure it was AI? Because to me it looked like it was just a tween affect going around, although I could be wrong

Yambanshee responds:

100% scripted AI

[Guy Shooter]

Meh

There wasnt really a point to it, the music was to fast paced and anoying, the characters were drawn badly... lots of stuff wrong

Good point was that the code for it worked, wasnt really good but it worked well

TDpro responds:

What do you mean with lots of stuff wrong ?? And i placed a mute button for the music... And i think my characters were really good for my first game - but its your thought ;) Thanks for your review :)

[Aqua Bots]

Good

It got boring really fast. I kept saying "WTF why did I lose health?" and I figured out exploing enemies hurt, that sucked

Good game over all but music gets anoying over and over, and gameplay was repetetive, add power ups and stuff

( Sorry for spelling mistakes =/ )

Ab9003 responds:

Hey sorry you didn't like the music but remember you can always mute. As for the game play the levels get gradually harder and vary significantly from eachother, I figured most players would enjoy the challenge. Still, I'm glad you liked the game and do appreciate the review.

[Elite Forces:Conquest]

good idea

badly executed, stop making every game the same other than the back drops and skins

make a completely diferent game or maybe even just change some things

I didnt realy like the whole ice and earth etc type towers they go gunz! make it more high tech, I dont want axes I want flame throwers!

Badim responds:

Hey, just beat some first maps, that will take some minutes, and you will get access to new Heroes, with new weapons, like Flamer, and new type of towers.
Game got 5 heroes, 9 weapons for them, 10+ skills, 10 groups of towers, 70+ towers, and some diferent flame throwers there is. But tnx for good point, i will add some kind of training, with unlim money and unlocked all stuff.

[Modern Tactics 2]

AI freezes

this is worse than the first one except for the amount of gear you can get, as the first one didnt seem to freeze at all

lautan responds:

I've made a new version 1.4. It fixes around 20 AI glitches. It'll be up on newgrounds sometime today. (The admins have to check the flash before its posted) You can play the newest version on my website right now.

[Punk-o-matic]

Crap-o-Matic

the Dude! thing was lame and yeah thats how you spell it dude. (Fckin dood) But yeah the actuall game was fun but not for very long altough was definatly worth 5mins

Evil-Dog responds:

You can dislike something without calling it crap
