Simonp's game Reviews on Newgrounds

[Hidden Perception]

Seem interesting... text in first level is sometime hidden from view because of zoom...

a volume button would be really nice

The game is way too heavy for a game this short... Must look into that.

ryanklimt responds:

Will fix the text as well as add a volume button. What do you mean by heavy?

[Cheap Windows]

Cheap windows?

Isn't a cheap windows being a pleonasm?

TheMadWasp responds:

I...don't think so...?

[Battle for the Boardroom]

Great game

Nice, but please correct a bug;
The amount of special attacks always return to 0 after each city... It's kinda sad to spend and lose them

willcheng responds:

The special attacks are reset to make the game more challenging. Thank you for the great score and the review.

[Porygon is Cheap]

Nice

Just one thing... Metronome randomly restart the game...

Otherwise you are right, that's difficult...
It's me or growl and tail whip doesn't have effect?? Or it's a change in the % of luck of fail/sucess in attacks?? Cause damage done or received are the same with or without...

RyuXKen responds:

Yeah damage done and recieved doesn't change. I'll be sure to fix it next time :) It's basically a waste of a move, and a way to see chuck norris get you :P

[Just Snake]

Poor

After finish the tutorial you went through to make that game you shouldn't upload your game... but simply think if you really want to make a better version which could be uploaded here...

There is a section for beta tests, demo and such lame games as yours...
It's the third time I see the exact same game with only really few art difference but with the sames bugs and colors...

P.S. You should work a way to be able to make u-turn without dying because the controls are made under if (keycode == XX) ...
you can make that by working after with while (keycode == XX) { if (keycode == something else) then do the 2nd movement...

slamter responds:

For "such games"? Yes, I know, what this game isn't "magic" and "great", but this is my game, and I'm proud of it!

[Classic Snake 2D]

Simple, idiot-proof

Your script seem to work not so bad... That's why I gave you 2

But controls doesn't respond if you quickly click two arrows... which is a big bug when you play such games...
Graphics simple... Gameplay really short however...

xTurner15x responds:

Because it's just a simple if (keycode == 37) {
direction = 'left'
}
there isn't a if (keycode == 37 && 38) {
direction = 'bottom-left'
}
I don't even think that code would work.
Gameplay is supposed to be short, you've never played classic snake before have you? Thanks for ruining my score, fag.

[Mighty Red Orb]

Far of shit

In the style it wasn't a bad game else if the control suffer often of some lag...

The fact that you cannot turn off all thoses sounds makes you lose probably two stars... and the fact that you have to turn the music off again and again... come on!

All put together this game worth trying it but it still has place to upgrade few things (especially sounds, it's the thing that bug me the most in games)

Nice work!

RatherRandomReality responds:

Mmm, you can turn off your computer's volume in general, how about that as a concept.

[Path]

Really nice!!

I really enjoyed playing but else the hard mode is a little bit too easy...

Really nice game, you should make separate lvls to make the game longer and don't have to restart from the beginning...

I played the easy mode first but it's so slow that I didn't want to start over... At least there was a hard mode because without I would have leave...

Voiceover responds:

My excuse: I suck.

[Kingpin]

Nice... Demo

As told before... icon hard to click (And text also!)... Overmore, sometime you have to click on text and others on that icon... So some times I was there trying to click on text thinking that icon was purely decorative... took me long to find out lol

What's more... well, first what's the gain of combat? I know you don't win the amount bet (or if supposed so I found another bug as I often got less than the amount of the bet), it would be nice to know the rate...

It's pointless to make an Hitman mission or GTA as they worth less than lacerny... way more, you seem to be never busted when you are stealing that apartement... (NEVER, not once...)

Maybe you should add more things... You already put in place Strength, but can I suggest you to add inteligence and use Strength, Inteligence and Respect in possible criminal mission... Like you cannot make a sucessfull Hitman mission without a weapon, enough respect (to be protected by gangs), and a minimum strength to survive...
The same way you could ask a minimum inteligence to make a grand theft auto (as you need to have knowledge of how to start the car without keys...)

Also you could make it more visual instead of that black screen... Instead of simple menu you use some buldings in a city to represent thoses options... The Gym, a little (hum, searching equivalent in english...... a really little street without lights, too little for cars) well a place like that where illegal fight could take place with your betting system (and some police raid that would make you lose your gains else if winning...)

Well, you got the main idea... Nice game, I'll look foward your creations

Thracian responds:

Thanks for review, will try to make it more playable.

[Alien Factory]

Few bugs that aren't that terrible...

The first I saw was in lvl 1... It's written lvl 1 but when you are in it, it's written lvl 4... lol this one is almost nothing but well...

Later (lvl 4 I think), else if written lvl 4 as it should, the red square in map was still around the 2nd lvl... still nothing there...

After the gas station, while runing away of the monster... How do you think we can go up and down so fast without losing?? The only way I found was using a cheat (a right click on the place I was going to land and than make a left click before the end to leave alive this mini-game)

All in all it was fun, but as the music cannot be shut off, I have to put only 9 out of 10...
I hope you'll use thoses informations to upgrade your game!

switchedagain responds:

wow man thanks alot for telling me about the level problems ..i seriously must fix it
