Aldarnc's game Reviews on Newgrounds

[Invasion (Version 1.0)]

Not great...

Graphics were sub par, needs music, style was pretty nice, i like these kinda games... violence sucked, no blood or anything, and random water kills all your infantry? Thats just stupid... plus it was so easy just build archers all the way, one of my archers kills the castle ion like 5 seconds on level 15... so yea, make it better.

VENGEANCE-GGG responds:

It's boiling hot water. They use water because it's cheaper than oil.

[Kitoma3]

Not good...

I can see you put a lot of effort into this, but the controlls were awful. Like, 10 different keys to press, all in random places... whatsup with that? And then in the battle mode, enemies do twice your dmg, grass randomly pops up in your face etc... overall you could have made this good if you stopped when it was simple.

coolroy responds:

again, the controls were comfort for many people and the grass is not randomaly, there is a grass counter at the top of the screen.
Next time read the instructions, lame.

[The Big Fat Tutorial]

<3

That was pretty sweet.

There is just one problem however, all this was useless to me as i cannot draw for toffee :P. If i could draw im sure this would be hella useful.

However the masking thing was pretty cool, i may try that out sometime.

However, these things take so much time, and seenas i spend basically all my time studying/working on my MMORPG, i have little time to work on my flash skills, although i am getting better!

Anyway, good job on this, great tutorial :D. Next time maybe you could write one on telling us how to draw and optimize shadowing, and maybe one on actionscript? :).

Helbereth responds:

Learning to draw came first loooong before flash. Which MMORPG?

hmm... shadowing is a possibility. however I know jack crap about action script. We'll see what happens though.

Thanks for the review!

[Gaming tutorial v1.2]

Crap

This was crap. The graphics sucked, the music sucked, everything needs improving.

Even your codes suck. Whats this previous frame crap? Just disable the right click menu, and making tab take score? Why?! Why do you even need to press tab in a game to cheat? There is no way to stop cheats, anyone with a hex editor or SWF decompiler can cheat on your games and steal your scripts, so it was completely pointless. Also its not "score=0" or "_root.score=0" its "_level0.score=0", because _root. is an object (its complicated, but its best to use _level0.score).

Anyway, this is pointless. Theres far better tut's out there.

MilkshakeClock responds:

Deal with it.

[Battle - Lord of the Ring]

No point

Good actionscripting, but a large waste of time. Just train stength all the way, i started doing 9999dmg after about 10wins, and then i just trained hp and couldn't lose.

EviLudy responds:

Meaning you actually got quite far.
Addicted?

[Viridarium Berry catching]

Awesome!

But you need to make it harder. I completed the game on my first go, but i couldn't work out the answer to the sentance thing on your site, any clues on that? But overall the game was great, i don't really think anything could be added to it, apart from maybe 'sprees', say if you caught a few in 1 second you get bonus points etc... anyway good job!

Edukator responds:

Yah, thats the thing, some people just have a knack for gmaes like this. Good idea on the spree thing. Oh and to all pepole who think I'm jsut being weird and replying to all of them, if you take the time to write a review the least I can do it take the time to respond.

[GateGears Deluxe]

Good

...but very very hard. I couldn't do the first level, are you sure there are even 10 combinations?

earl223 responds:

Actually, four gears make up one combination (the is matching 4 colored corners). You to to match 10 combinations to clear the first level. You can however, make a 6 gear, 7 gear, 8 gear, and even a 9 gear combination. You need to make more than a 4 gear combination if you expect to survive the higher levels.

[Starfighter]

...

You get a 5 because ITS WAY TOO HARD! One mission suddenly becomes 500000000 x harder than all the others, and you get game over straight away, and its just too boring to start all over again.

DJStatika responds:

Have got a save option at the official site. I had to take it out for NG cos they dont have the server side code (because I wrote it) needed for loading/saving this game. If you can save, the game suddenly becomes a lot easier :)

[Shoot sb-clock]

Die!

clock = gay!

FatonWheels responds:

YES!
