[Cards Wars: TBS]

Different and interesting

People dont really take the time to really check the portal and all that it has to offer, but i personally love looking for some nifty and unique pieces, And i have enjoyed what you have done here, and really hope you continue and make more things like this one. This game was interesting and has a really good mechanic about it, but was really hard to really get it down, maybe it was just me but it was a really interesting piece and fun but some areas were just confusing and ultimatly lost interest do to it but it was alright. you have a good design and really nifty concept. that was a very nice game. it took me a couple minutes to get the hang of the controls and to learn some other things, but once i did, then it was a lot more fun to play and i enjoyed it way more. the graphics were notbad but could possibly be better, good gameplay,

~~THINGS TO IMPROVE ON~~
Made yourself a name with this entry it seems, I thought it was entertaining yet also amusing to a point ofcourse, but mostly i thought it was pretty interesting, I do feel like you could change up a few things for the better though, And here is what i think could make things better. Maybe have some easy portions up front of the game rather then towards the middle and end.

GeneralVimes responds:

Thank you very much for such a detailed review! I'm working to make the sequel and I'll surely make it better! :)

An interesting idea here

OK cool i was glad i had a chance to see and review this at first i was iffy, but really glad i got the chance as it was pretty good and there was some un-expected things going on that really kept me interested, and i look forward to even more, OK so this was an interesting idea, i didnt quite get alot of it, but would have been nice if you added some sounds, some music and sound/fx, by adding those additions it could be much better i thought, but you did present an interesting idea here and it was somewhat fun but does need some extras about it, and i believe thats all i can really judge here, but like i said it was notbad could use some more though. And to close out here, you have amazed me with the style and the fun factor you brought to this, so i do hope to find more work from you, But anyways you have a good idea some interesting things happened and again i look forward to more of what you can present us with.

~~THINGS TO IMPROVE ON~~
As always i may have a few ideas or even just one or two ideas, but they are things that i may have saw throught the submission that could use a new approach or just even cleaned up so just look into them and if i dont leave anything then it was a plus of an entry. So as mentioned this could use more sound/fx. more music, and more sounds all around, just something to think about.

Kwing responds:

Yeah, I'm using this as a mini game in a work-in-progress I have going on. You'll definitely see more of this later on!

Another interesting game

So before i get to the actual review here just wanted to enlighten you with some good thoughts here, for the mostpart this was pretty interesting and pretty entertaining, and while there was some parts i didnt like i still came to enjoy it for what it is, OK so one thing i do want to mention is that the "MOVMENT" was kinda off at times sometimes you would get stuck and the controlsdidnt operate correctly so maybe thats something you can possibly look into. This is also one of those game types where you can add some medals it would really make it fun and a much more enjoyble experince, and you can also get this game to a more wider and grand audiance, so thats something to look into. The game was cool and reminded me those simular retro games of that nintendo past so it was a fun game. And now that the review here is almost done, its pretty entertaining, and i had fun with it, i had fun with all you pushed forward here, it was pretty amusing though, and i would hope you make more stuff like this because i for one will for sure be interested,

~~THINGS TO IMPROVE ON~~
Ok so for the submission you did good and it cameout better then i had expected, so props there, now here is some time to suggest and push some ideas, tips, and a little advice that i hope will help you in making an even better product, There was some movment and controll issues. maybe you should look into that, This would be great with some medals put in you can do so much with some medals and really give it more activity and more of a popularity, it would also keep people interested aswell as looking into more of your own work so its something to try out.

kor6k responds:

Thanks for the feedback! You should try "explose'em all"; it's the new version of this game I made and iI think it is better ;-)

[Go Avatar]

Fun dress-up

These rtypes are always somewhat interesting, but they can be even better with some extra stuff going around, so ill probably suggest abit more, but thats for later, but it is an interesting entry and hope to see some improvments later,
So ok this was not a bad game, i am pretty fond of these types of games, i love doing these dress-up types, and seems like you have added alot, they do have some good variaty here, it could use more items, especiallysome animated stuff aswell, and while the "BUTTON" method is cool and easy, it limits the way of creativity like "DRAG-DROP" can offer so thats something to think about aswell. And while i do love reviewing stuff especially stuff like this, it must eventually come to an end, so i will finish up here shortly, but anyways you have a good entry here had some nice highlights about it, but could use some more to it aswell.

~~THINGS TO IMPROVE ON~~
OK so here is where i add a few of my ideas and suggestions, you have a decent entry here but could use a few details and extras to take it farther then before, so dont take these ideas lightly as they are stuff that will help to improve on a decent idea already, OK so this game could use the Drag and drop method over the one you have now, and the reason i say that, is because itallows for more creative direction and allows for more random creations so that is for sure someting to think about adding here. This game could use more items more stuff to use, but not just the normal either, you can add lots more variaty and you can add some animated and more random and unique styles through out, it will make for a much better dress-up game. Dress-up games are great but you kind of want to give them the sense that you are there so maybe some related backrounds would be a nice touch maybe you could have a few buttons that would swithc on and off a few differant related backrounds of sorts.

Waw thanks i love reading these long reviews, they keep me from giving up and such XP

[40 Optical Illusions 2]

Fun game

Wanted to say that the intro was a nice touch, i dont see much of that but when there is a menu page, intro page, but you really did some nice designs and such, gives the whole flash more depth and qulity so grats on a nice menu/intro page. Now i must say these types of game are fun, And thanks for the qualityoption that was pretty good, Ok so this was a pretty good game, i actually got a few of the medals wich was nice, the "DESIGN-LAYOUT" was kind of sloppy though and you should think about adding some more effort there as it was just kinda sloppy, So maybe as an improvment option a more fresher look more borders, maybe not so much use of random stuff either, It was a fun game though maybe make it "HARDER" aswell as this one seemed too easy i thought. and addinga few more medals wouldnt hurt aswell, well these are just a few ideas i hope they help, also one last thing, it was hard to click on some buttons mainly the "TEXT" only buttons like the "LOW-MED-HIGH" buttons that could be better looked at aswell, And once again we have another decent flash, theres not alot i can say to improve on this but there are some things that could be cleaned up as menioned and below, but for the most of this its pretty good and i liked everything i saw here, so keep up the good work. anyways nice work here.

~~THINGS TO IMPROVE ON~~
Ok I will start off with saying this is actually pretty decent the flash has good potential, it does need some more work there, below are a few ideas that could make it better but does need your effort on this, So use some of the ideas it will greatly make this better and allow you to have more viewers to your flash aswell. So i suggested a few ideas, one being that the layout needs more of a better design and more fresh look and less random colors here and there. A great addition are medals to any flash, and i like the ones you had on here, allthough it could use much more medals, people on this site really love the medals and could really enjoy it more with some more medals, so give it a try it wont hurt.

Thanks for the well written review :)

[Habbo Hotel Dress Up]

Its a nifty game

Like i said its a nifty game and you picked a good "THEME" with the Habbo. never played that game but have seen it before so that was pretty cool, but one thing i have noticed is that on all the 3 differant characters alot of the clothing and props were all too much of the same, just duplicated colors adn such, thats ok but you want to try and make it more your own style with more random and unique styles, andanother thing is this needs some backrounds and even more "ITEMS" and since we are on the topic a larger creation screen would be great, as it would allow for a much bigger view and more creation, aswell room for much more items, This was a good game, lots of stuff here and some great music the music was pretty nifty, I really enjoyed this flash and all that you have presented here, there was alot to see and it was overall fun so great job all around below i have left a few ideas that may help to improve on this flash, so keep up the good work and i look forward to more.

~~THINGS TO IMPROVE ON~~
first of all good Flash, could use a few fixes and changes for better improvment ofcourse, i have suggested a few ideas to help and hope you have the time to put some of them in as it will only improve on your good idea already. One thing i noticed, alot of the clothing and props were all too much of the same, just duplicated colors adn such, thats ok but you want to try and make it more your own style with more random and unique styles, and as mentioned above, a larger creation screen would be great, as it would allow for a much bigger view and more creation, aswell room for much more items,

Aprime responds:

Cheers for the review. I read it all. It was really helpful.
Thanks for taking your time out to review this game in such depth

[Mad Dress Up]

Decent

Nice dress-up game here especially from an old regular, and i must say this one had some very good "EFFORT" the music was fitting, and its the first dress-up game with a scene selector from the early days so nice efforts there, all the options with guns and dress up props was pretty good, you had a good amount of variaty and nice detail on them aswell, so once again nice job there, Now you went the extra mile to have some "ACTION" stuff going on like a punch and so on, very nice indeed, so as for improving tips and points, I believe you covered everything so its as good as it gets, and nice job on the differant music selection aswell, the whole game was well rounded and had everything you could ask for in a dress up game and even more so nice job and nioce efforts on this fantastic game.

~~THINGS TO IMPROVE ON~~
I think you had alot of stuff from variaty of items, to scenes and even good music choices, the area that could have used more stuff would have to be, more Action-stuff, meaning more stuff and unique action buttons, you only had the 4.

toxicbomb responds:

Woo hoo, its XwaynecoltX! I appreciate the time you put into your reviews, man! Thank you!

[Madotsuki's Dream Dock]

Fun and dark

I will start off this review on saying that this was an interesting flash game here, it has itsmomemnts nad can be better but for what it is, i must say that it was alright and pretty amusing, i like some of the stuff you pulledout on this giving it an interesting look, so a nice feel all around with this one good effort and i was pretty impressed with most things on this. Like i said the "VISUALS" were great and had a good look about it all and such, I love the ending here aswell, you really pushed for a "DARK" feel here and that made it for a good flash entry here so i was pretty impressed with this submission and hope to see more work from you soon aswell.

~~THINGS TO IMPROVE ON~~
I would like to see more of the little details added along with more effects popping up but also go with the dark touch even more then you already have.

Pienkaito responds:

Thanks for the very helpful review. I'll keep that in mind.

[IHOP Waitress Soundboard]

Funny board

Ok so for starters this was notbad, the board itself is ok kinda entertaining, i love hopw you have alot of differant sounds with this one and such, I also like how you made this all into like a menu of sorts and the voice was real seems like it, Now the one thing about alot of these types of sound boards is they are just the sounds but you should add some clip with each sound, that would really make it more interesting for the viewer of the board. The soundboard was pretty good and does show some good effort on your part here, the text as buttons could be better aswell, maybe more of a box or circle would make it click over better and look better, but anyways nice job its a good game i actually did like this one, anyways untill next time good luck.

~~THINGS TO IMPROVE ON~~
first of all good game, could use a few fixes and changes for better improvment ofcourse, i have suggested a few ideas to help and hope you have the time to put some of them in as it will only improve on your good idea already, Now the one thing about alot of these types of sound boards is they are just the sounds but you should add some clip with each sound, that would really make it more interesting for the viewer of the board. You may want to work on your buttons more too, the textonly style buttons are kind of hard at times and dont click over as good as they cn be.

~~OVERALL~~
And overall this was a good game i had fun reviewing it, there was actuallysome fun sounds with this one, and you showed some nice effort, keep up the good work.

JuneLinMilliam responds:

After I took a look at your newgrounds it is like a honor to get a review from you lol. I started making soundboards in 2008 and what I like to do is try to make them not look the same as you can see by the SSFIV soundboards I did. If you put your mouse over the text and move it near the end you will see that it is made with a box around it but you just can not see it. I am open to better ideas when I make these and will try to use new things when I learn them. Thank you very much for the review!
