"Hmm..."

submission: Pogger

date: January 16, 2008

Well, from what I remember of classic frogger, the board was effectively divided up into squares and when you tapped the key to move, you advanced one square, so the controls caught me out at first.

What I think we see as a problem is that you've not cut out the characters correctly, as the cars don't touch Pac man bafore he dies and he can't come within x of the mud before he loses a life, which I found infuriating. Taking a little more time over this would certainly help and if you made the graphics of Pac man a little less 8-bit, you'd be well on the way to a nice game.

Maybe you need a score information, getting you points for advancing so far and defiantely an option to turn the music off, as it's a little on the loud side, so I'd prefer to take it off. Though, rather than have me just turn off my speakers, give me some sort of funny splat sound effect for pac man getting run over, for example :)

"Confusing, but addictive"

submission: Phantom Mansion- Blue

date: January 15, 2008

I quite liked this game, but i have to say, I had quite a bit of trouble when it came to the puzzles which involved the Motion Potion. Block moving to get myself to stop in the right position. I did manage to get around to completeing these puzzles, but they were real brain benders.

Having them not wear off during the level was a real bitch, so maybe that would be an improvement, or at least have a 'restart level' button, because the number of times I screwed up would seem to indicate that we could use one here ;)

"Cool game"

submission: TD: Destroy the Toy

date: January 15, 2008

I liked this, despite the lack of sound for the game itself, it is a lovely little game.

I wasn't too happy with the way that the enemies suddenly became really difficult to deal with at Level 9 - I'd not even lost a life up until then and all of a sudden, my defenses are breached and I cannot stem the flow of life away from me :(

Still, the graphics are quite simple - maybe a piece of animation is needed for when you lose - the enemy that killed you runs up and does something nasty and terminal to the Teddy Bear?

"Eh?"

submission: Adventures of Matt L.

date: January 15, 2008

Well, while this may have taken effort to produce a completely random flash, I was left with a deep sense of emptiness for watching it.

I've never been a fan of screamers, because frankly I could make a half-decent one with the application of Flash to my computer. I don't, because it's childish. This flash has some serious issues to deal with, but most of all, the sound needs a quick and permanent fix - far too much static exists on this and half of the things that are said, I can't hear properly anyway.

Try standing furtehr from the mic when you record your sounds and then when you play them back, it doesn't sound like you're recording them with a sheet of paper taped across your mouth or like you've swallowed a cazoo.

I would love to see a subtitle bar, so we could actually see what we are supposed to hear during the production.

"Review #767"

submission: Adolf Hitler:CAI493+D SE1

date: January 14, 2008

How convincing Hitler's disguise was this time. I think that a Bahamut would be a welcome addition to his collection of Pokemon and Nazi Drogonalia.

How long on average does Hitler spend in makeup for these transformations, on average? Some of the disguises he wears look quite time consuming, but others look like they can be constructed in about 10 minutes.

"Goooo!"

submission: Weebl & Bob : Goo Fiction

date: January 14, 2008

Wow, that was an amazing little flash you have there. The graphics of Marvin's head exploding was amazingly grotesque for a 'U' Rated film.

I never knew that walkie talkies could go off like that. What frequency is needed for that to happen? I really could do with knowing this frequency, so that... mine doesn't go off, accidentally, or something like that.

I dread to think what the other two movies are.

"Needs level structure"

submission: Match Me

date: January 13, 2008

While this is an enjoyable and very playable game in its own right, this could really do with the boost of level play. You get to the end of the level of tiles and a new board is presented with slightly less time and you see how well you can do before the time runs out.

Other than that, the graphics, sounds and playability of the game were absolutely fine. Perhaps a piece of ambient music over the top would just cap it all as well...

"Review # 764"

submission: Edgar N' Locke 05

date: January 12, 2008

Loved the Canibal Corpse rip, they deserved it!

An interesting mix of music is supposed to come out this year. Thanks for reminding me, I just went to play and bought my copy of Libertad, by Velvet Revolver.

Hopefully Metallica won't suck, but frankly, I'm not counting on it. Hell, at least we won't have to put up with any new releases from Man'o'War :P

I love the way that Edgar and Locke seem oblivious to the extra walking past with his red iPod. What music was he listening to and what would their verdict have been?

"Interesting"

submission: MZ's G&W Collab Parts

date: January 11, 2008

I liked this FBF piece. You've shown us that you need to work on your drawing skills, but also that you've got a strange and varied imagination.

If you use a slightly smaller cursor and zoom in on the image you're drawing, you'll get more control over the tool and therefore a better quality picture. It takes more time, but it's worth it.

Now what you need to do with that animation is annotate that 'thing' better, as I don't know what sort of thing it is. If you can work that out, maybe draw it better and the pieces of the jigsaw will fall into place nicely.

"Was this pro or anti Communist?"

submission: Socialist World Republic

date: January 9, 2008

I'm not entirely confident with my German, so I really couldn't tell if it was pro or anti-communist propoganda.

The whole piece seemed quite eery, especially when we see the WWII German insignia on the tank that was attacking. The German army abandoned this as a matter of course soon after the second world war, in an effort to step away from the politics of Hitler and his policies.

The animation is great, but it does little to enhance the emphasis of the wording, since I don't really know which word means what. Given time, I could pick it up, but that does detract from my love of this flash.
