nacritico's game Reviews on Newgrounds

[>> Musik Marathon <<]

A bit of a deception :P ...

I usally like you games niato, I usually like them a lot... but this time, I don't know, it was a bit desapointing. I was hopping for a new game and original, but instend I found one very similar to your previous one (I don't recall the name, but I think you know what I'm talking about).
Good game thought, but I was expecting something a bit more original XD (I was looking foward for something like the DJ game :P).

salu2's and keep up the good work,
Nacritico

ps: you did the whole code again having it already done? in my opinion re-using your old code would have been something smarter :P ... (I don't see the problem re-using your codes)

[- CoolioDJ -]

Very good game!

it was very well done. Not only the programation, but the idea of the game was original and great, I got atonished :P .
I've started programing one/two years ago (I started dedicating time to it at the beggining of this year though); and I got sorprised how someone one year younger than me makes such a great game.
Literally: "keep up the good work".

ps: next time try to add more songs, to make the guy move at the speed of the song (and stop moving when the song is over) and to add fx when you make great amount of combos

salu2's, nacritico

Oh my god...

this sir. is what a call a good game: It seems to be very well done, it is flawless (without any bug) and with a very sofisticate IA.
I really liked this game, really, even more than the Clock smash brothers.
It's a shame that you didn't put more characters (in my opinion, there are very few) like stickman,darnell,the music portal robot, tom fulp (as the games "dan" XD), one foot,protagonist(from madness),ect.; but still a good game.
If you are going to do a new game (think that I doubt, at least, not now), have in mind adding more characters and making the levels more interactives... that would be the best game in history.
Well, as I final comment I want to tell you that it took me 1:10 minutes beat s.asshole,pico and nene with convict XD; thanks for making such a difficult level that keep me enterteined for that long.

salutes, nacritico

[Super Pico AllStars]

Good, but could be better

First of all, I didn't like convick nor ubber kid because they don't appear in the original version, but that's just my personal opinion.
In second place, I think this game could be improved a lot!...how? well, giving the characts spacial attacks and combos, making the characters fall after being hitted, and trying to improve the IA'S (I know this is the most complicated part, but if you could improve them a little, and make it impossible to beat them just by going foward and pressing z; this game would be much better).
As last advice, I tell you that you should add some SAVE/LOAD options, or at least, making paswords (though I think that making a SAVE/LOAD system is easier here).

[Stab]

Needs a lot of work

First of all, the game is stupid. I mean, a meaningless stabing arena, C'MON. There should be some history, like the guys work for a gag or something.
About the grafics. They weren't that bad (indeed, I liked the models), but the enemies were all the same, and some people (extras) are a lot smaller than the character.
You also need to work on game's interactivity, because the fighting isn't that great (you just dodge and do always the same atacks, nothing else) and it gets boring with five minutes of playing it. You also should add extra stuff, like a bigger house, the capability of buying armors, of improving yours skills, of beeing able to talk and interact with people. Indeed, I think that the arena should be something opcional, and that you should have a storyline to follow (like beeing on a gang for example).
Finally, you need to work in the sound. There is almost not music for god sake!. It makes the game bored.
Please, try to work on this, and you might make a good game (not as this one).

[Pandemic: EoM]

Not bad, but...

I don't finish liking it.
I think you should do a thrid one, taking the good things about the first that you "missed" here (the grafics, the ability to modify your virus,etc.) and some things you add here that helps to avoid the needing of luck to win (things such as fighting against the cure of the virus, beeing you who spred the virus and polute the water, etc.). I think you should make a bit slower the discover of the virus thought (maybe making the game a bit slower).
If you do that in a new game, I'm sure it will be a great game.

ps: I liked the first one more than the second :P

[Blockhead: The Game]

I like it...

Is a very good game, althought it doesn't have a lot of interactivity. The only thing you can do (to win) is to make him bounce or chause someone (and ocationaly, enter in panic/bad idea mode.
I don't think this game is that hard either if you interrept him with the spacebar (is it very complicated if you do it with the mouse thought).
In conclution: is a good game, but I think it could be a little better (don't know how, I just know it could :D)

ps: I CAN SEE MY HOUSE FROM HERE!

[The Tutorial Collab '06]

...

I have to say it helped my a lot about a lot of things I didn't knew...
But I can't say is well done... sorry...
First of all, there are a lot's of mistakes (cursor effect there's is not an arrow to go backwards) and code errors...
Second, some of the autors just put the codes in page; and they didn't explained them (or explained them poorly)... and I think that doesn't work for someone who is trying to learn... I prefear understanding the codes I read than coping them (that's why I don't have my MACROMEDIA FLASH opened while I read this) ....
...
The gramars mistakes and the awfull music (and music's volume) are forgibable things, but I think what's unforgibable is finding mistakes (programation, scripts, ect.) on a flash with the funtion of teaching people how to program,make scripts, ect.
....
I think your's job isn't bad, but I think It could've been better, and that you shoould think about doing this tutorial again (correcting the mistakes) ..

ps: I found mistake the only code i copied, and after that, found a lot of mistakes while reading the scripts

ps2: the links doesn’t work! You have to fix that!

[Escape from Helltowers]

good try but...

no... the wasn't good...
the graphics where very goods... and the sounds great...
but the real problem here where three:

- The lack of intectivy (the most important mistake)
i think that this is the where you made the big mistake...
i mean; it bothers me that only think that you can do is to move (right or left), shoot and dodge...
i would have loved this game if you could duck (and picking up things just when you duck), jump, use items in the envoirement (more than the keys and the elevators) and save the stpupids people there....
also, if you had given this game more interectiva, you would have been able to make this game more dificult... with more than those stupid rousing robots (for exemple, you could avoid different kinds of beams, in diferents kind of ways)...
if you trie to correct this, i'm sure that this game will be one of the best flash games ever

- The controls (see also the first problem)
well... i don't like to press the enter to use an elevator nor using the up button to avoid thinks...
i think that you shoul put another botton to avoid (like the space) and use the up button (or anyother botton, but please, not the enter) to interact with the envoirment and the people (including the elevators) ....

-the speed...
i'm not sure about this... but i found this game a little slow.... maybe... just MAYBE, you should do it faster...

....

well, try my advices.... and salu2's

ZZR responds:

very good feedback... thx!

[Four Second Frenzy]
