[Naruto's Kunai Game]

Needs work.

Congrats on getting some results so far with your game.

Some crit please dont take it up bad its really jsut improvement ideas to keep in mind.

Why can I only throw one shuriken at a time, and then have to wait for it to hit a ninja to throw another one? The quicker it hits a ninja the quicker I get to throw. Doesn't make sense. This really stops the player from going up and down, since you can throw a star at the ninja way at the back at the top and then when you go down you cant defend yourself.

Some ninjas move way to fast, try and keep it realistic to the hero's moving speed.

When standing in one spot and just holding control down you can never be hurt, partly the mistake of the first error i mentioned. Also the ninjas that just fly past you. They dont chase you, but im sure this will get eliminated later with AI.

Keep it up looking good.

notoriousfry responds:

your right, it doesn't make sense how you can only throw one dagger at a time.

i plan on maby making some ninjas take 2 or more hits so that they dont need to move so fast.

thank you for taking the time to write a review, and giving me some tips for future updates!

[Night Of The Snowmen]

Well Done, Some Crit.

Enjoyable, but it gets repetitive. I like the well done Graphics & the different stages. I would say introduce new things more often, eg : The chain gun was a nice surprise later on. Though when there is a snowball on the screen you cant shoot through that so I had one covering where 3/4 snowmen spawn and that was disastrous.

I would suggest have more types of snowmen that have different attacks. :) Would be awesome & then also let you have to reload your gun. Maybe implement a scoring system that everytime you miss you lose 10 points or something. Would let people not shoot like crazy, together with the relaod function.

Awesome game, clearly you put allot of effort into it well done!

It's fun for a little while.

Its pretty well done, the gfx etc. What is annoying is that the high score submit didn't work and that there is no powerups or game change.

I like the loko and feel however well done.

[Orbis Impetus]

Unbelievable!

I LOVE THIS! Very Creative, the only problem I found that was @ level 17 there where no more bubbles.. only stars.

Anyway 10/10

[Collect! - Pure Code Game]

Getting there.

The game is not bad, i enjoyed it for a short while. (Then started aiming for the bullets)

The game is enjoyable at first but it gets boring the longer you live. Which is quite long. You should introduce new items to the player. Like mentioned before power ups etc.

Also it could be interesting if the platforms moved. (up down & left to right)

You can also make the bullets change there course. Eg: Some form above then left right etc.

Cool power ups to think about.

Reversed Gravity, Shield, High Jump, No Gravity, Something to catch the stars with.

Ps: I like the way the background changes color as your health depreciates.

Cheers,

Afflict.

Naois responds:

I think that the two most frequent comments I've received are 'live too long' and 'power ups', which I'll look into in my next game.
The moving platforms idea is a good one, and one that I'd thought of, but as I already had them changing positions, I decided not to add it.
Bullets changing course I hadn't thought of, and is a damn good idea.

Thanks for the review.

[Jack the Game]

Some ideas.

This wasnt the worse game ive ever played, in fact it was very creative and interestng. Funny in some parts :)

I didnt like the fact that i had to listen music while it was loading... Preloaders with music suck.

All in all this was enjoyable and fun.

Keep it up!

[[ Tetris Advanced v1.0 ]]

2 perspective.

Gamer perspective.

I feel that the game ofers me nothing new or innovative. In fact the jerky blocks at the top really annoy me. Also the one sound track that loops over and over gets on my nerves when I pass round about level 4. The graphics dont really bother me cause its tetris and everybody loves tetris.

Developer Perspective.

Hey its tetris! Wow AS sorted not too bad in fact awesome. However the jerky block at the top must get fixed. Well done on creating a tetris clone worthy of a tetris name. It offers nothing new yet and further developement on this title will bring me great joy!

Keep it up.

Afflict!

[Beginner AS Tutorial 2]

Hey nice one.

I also started tying to make some tutorials.

General Advice I got : Have a back button, add music. You too lack these. Just update them in the fla publish and update the file via entries submitted.

These however are not bad tutorials i believe. Definately will help anybody new to flash.

Keep it up!

Regards,

Afflict.
