[RagDoll Cannon]

So under-rated!

This game is awesome, and the physics are kick-ass... I'm wondering how did this ended up in the second daily plase :S ... it deserved a First place, is more than clear...

[The Tutorial Collab '08]

Not happy

I think you make a big guss with this. It's probably very, VERY usefull for starters (It took more than year to learn all these by myself, because I'd problems gathering information), but yet, is still ones of those tutorials which doesn't really help you to make a big Progress....
I think it'll be more helfull if you make written separated tutorials, and then add some interectavive animations as you did in here...

[Maplestory: Yakuza]

good game

I was amaized how well the mapple story engine was reproduced...
Yet, it was WAAAYY!! too repetetive... you have to keep the same stragy for a really long time, and it makes the game boring....
Next time, try to make a more hard (but with a lot less life) enemie.

[IndestructoTank A.E.]

Really dissapointed about this game :(

Having played the others IT, I was really hopping an SUPER AWESOME game... and this wasn't... it just was a great game ...
Grafics were better, and the coding seemed smoother.. but yet, there was stuff I didn't like.
Leaving aside the fact that this is the countinuing of a saga (and lacks of originality)*, there are a lot of facts that I would like to see better in this game.
The main thing is the camara.... camara's are pretty easy to code in flash (they are one of the things I can get right XD), and yet yours looks pretty ugly... main reason?? a Black screen... the fact that you can't go to an area doesn't necessarilly means that it should be black... it give you the sensation that you are playing a falsh game, instend of really being on a tank.. and games are all about sensations..

[Drunken Masters]

Newground's top ten games!

This game is absolutely kick ass...
is Excelently programed (I founded no glich nor bug), the atmosphear of the game is generally great chosen (great interface and great music), and finally, the graphics are sweet...
Really, I loved this, I don't get how this didn't get higher in Newground's score board :S...

[Stickicide 3!]

good and original

is original, because I have played loads of game were you have to kill sticks, but you don't get to kill yourself, not until this game.
is true, is very repetitive, and could have use other things (such as cops which avoided you for killing yourself), but otherwise, good...
Maybe, if you were a "super stick" with healing factor or something like that, you could add something to the game.

GOOD GAME!

I'm a bit angry because I was thinking of something similar (a good zombie that is attacked), but well you did it before me, so you win :P.
Regarding the storyline, I think it was way too simple you should try to make it deapher.
Also, the gameplay could use some improving, mainly regarding interactivity (you should be able to do stuff such as pressing buttons to make the chances of hitting bigger or stuff like that) or the posivility to tell your party what strategy they should follow (if they should be healers, buffers, fisical attackers, berserkers, support, human shields, etc.). Also, you could try to avoid the lineality of the game (it was way too lineal).
Regarding the coding, the game was flawless. I didn't found one bug on the game so tumbs up about that.
Now, talking about graphics, they were good, but the cutscemes could have been better and the magics could have variated.
Something I loved was that the characters changed wit the stuff they had equipped.
Last but not least, I want to tel you that the IA was not that bad. I program myself, and I know that people can be very hysterical about that. It could have improved, but it was good... the IA was not stupid, not all....

I loved the game, and I'll look foward your next game

ps: how did you do to make this game in 2 months?? I usually take longer to make simplier stuff... a game like this would have taken me half a year (or more) :S ... how did you do XD?

[Knight Tactics]

FF TACTCIS COPY

Nothing... well programed and all... but very unoriginal...
I like to think your game as a tribute.. thought I love the orignal FFT... so this is not even similar to it for me ... the origianl is far better XD!!

I'll give it an 8 because the game is well programed and has acceptable graphics ... but I think that they could have been better...

[Ultra Game: Bat Blaster]

so much potential, and such a bad game

This game could have been a good one... but it doens't not.
The graphics and the music are cool, I've to admit that... but the rest... kinda sucks.
There is no gameplay realy. You just have to move the arrows and press the space bar in the same direction.
CONCLUTION: WAY TO SIMPLE AND BORING
next time and more things... make the bats attack you, make you be able to move from side to side, collect upgrades, etc.

[Ragdoll Invaders]

Just a great game

Loved it, very simple and yet, very well thought and done (with great phisics). I found almost no a bug in this game, except for one or two blue lazers which collitioned with me, but didn't damage me (so I've nothing to complain about XD)
The game itself was hard... I ended up with just 10 lives, when I went to the final with almost 25 lives (23)... Well, I'm happy of being a "rotating devastador" and having "saved the earth" XD..
