Friendly Fire: BaG

"Die, cuties, die!"

submission: Friendly Fire: BaG
date: July 3, 2009

A great title that should be on everybody's favorite list. The sound effects are just hilarious and the graphics are cartoonish, silly, and very well constructed. The controls are very good and feel just right. The A.I. was done pretty well, as they jump when necessary and shoot pretty good. The Achievements where also done well and a great idea as it improves the Replay Value.

However, just like in any game, there are flaws. First the collision between he player and the enemies needs to be fixed, especially when you get cornered.

Second, there is no continue feature, or lives for that matter. There is not enough health that it should include those mentioned features before.

Third, the upgrade tree needs improvement as you can only select one upgrade and go from there. You can't switch your upgrades to try them out. The ability to switch the guns purchased through the upgrade tree could fix that. You could allow the switching by using the mouse wheel, or any button you think is right.

Fourth, there is some noticeable slow down in the frame rate and I found myself continuing fire when I released the fire button leading to overheats caused by this flaw.

All in all, it is a great title on Newgrounds, and should see a next title, just maybe. Very close to a perfect score.

UltraKillz

"Kill, kill, KILL!!"

submission: UltraKillz
date: July 2, 2009

A great attempt in a 3D FPS game, but just lacks in some areas. It looks great and runs smoothly. Even the "Click to Activate the Game" idea was a good idea.

Unfortunately, the ability to turn (pivot) is missing, the aiming is a little off (even for the mouse), and the A.I. isn't too impressive either (but it works). It was a little difficult to judge distance as I aimed. Collision detection is a little off, too, as I have noticed.

I know how difficult making a game like this, especially polygon rendering (or something similar), so I wont be too hard on you. It is a well made game. However, it could have been much better.

Tankmen: Incursion

"Great Graphics, but that's about it..."

submission: Tankmen: Incursion
date: May 6, 2009

This should have been a great title on Newgrounds. The Graphics and animation are superb. Unfortunately, the game suffers from it's 'Dynamic Camera' as it constantly zooms in and out, so I could barely see or tell what's going on. I never knew I picked up a power-up until I used it, so they are a little hard to spot. Also, I do agree the mouse should have been used at least as an alternate control method via options.

I found the game to be a sight to behold, but that is not enough as game play was frustrating at best. It's a great attempt and an honorable mention. Just keep what the people said in mind in your next game.

Pico meets Xmen

"Good little game here."

submission: Pico meets Xmen
date: May 5, 2009

A little different than other games I've played, but it's good. Just wish you'd finish it! I have taken into account that this game is not finished, so score won't be affected by it.

And for those of you who are wondering where to go after freeing Gambit, you can't advance further into the story after that due to the fact that this is an unfinished submission. It says so in the Author Comments section.

Deliver That Fulp

"Interesting game."

submission: Deliver That Fulp
date: April 24, 2009

A very interesting game here. Took me a while to get it started, but it worked out. Unfortunately, synonyms were not used here to be able to replace some of the used words. This only makes the game harder and may drive some people away. Just keep that in mind the next time you guys decide to do something like this.

Got all medals by the way!

"Great continuation of the series."

date: April 22, 2009

Vastly improved over the last animation. Great sprite animation and sfx. Luigi did get kinda annoying after a while, but it fits in pretty well. Miss the Ice Climbers though. Still funny as hell though.

Can't wait for the third one, if you plan on a third one. Keep up the great work!

Thank you Stormy! I will do either a third one or a GBA or Sega Genesis one. We'll see how that works out... But before that, I got a couple other movies I wanna finish first. So, it'll be a while.

"A good start!!"

date: April 22, 2009

Not bad for your first flash movie. Very well done indeed. Great material to work with = great spoofs. I can't believe I didn't find find this sooner.

Going to see the second one now. Keep up the great work!

"A Slice of the Action"

"Ummm, not exactly what I was thinking..."

date: March 20, 2009

But funny none-the-less. Great animation, voices, and plot (I guess, if there was a plot). An interesting piece to watch. Very random and unexpected. Keep up the good work.

Dad's at Work

"No mistake! Another great insane piece!!!"

submission: Dad's at Work
date: March 20, 2009

Much better than the last one!! Much more destruction, mayhem, and random violence, which makes this particular animation worth watching over and over again! Not to mention the animation was much more fluid and very smooth. Extremely well done!

Cannot wait for the next one!
