Neverending Light

"A rather mediocre experince."

submission: Neverending Light
date: March 7, 2009

From the start the game gets off to a rocky start. The voice acting all sounds rather...well they sound like crap. Plus this game has almost no action. Theres the time when you run away from the enemies like once or twice. After that, thats about it. And when you have to search for a weapon, I had to crawl all over the place before I gave up because I didn't know what I was looking for looked like and resorted to the jump menu relinquishing all my hard earned Sprite Droppings.

But I'll give you credit on the story, it does seem interesting enough and at the beginning I did actually jump once or twice. But in the end, this series needs alot more work before it reaches a level where it can be considered great, or in my opinion, good. I would suggest that while keeping the dark theme, in the next game also include more action. And if someone seems to be stuck on something, include some clues through character dialogue maybe. And also try to cut back on backtracking, the amount of backtracking in this game did kind of piss me off considering how big the entire cavern was.

I hope you take some of these things into consideration when making your next game to make it a more pleasent experince. I'll make sure to watch out for it.

Sonic - Rise of Robotnik

"Exceeded what I expected honestly."

date: August 18, 2008

First of all, the game was decently fun, but alot shorter than what I expected. But I'm not going to really complain about the length of time because as a first flash game, this is an really impressive start and I must say that you are definately going onto my favorite authors list. I want to see what else you can come up with.

I will make the small complaint however that the drawing kind of...lacked in some areas. Mostly in the endings. The only two that I felt fully satisfied with was the Rouge ending and the secret ending, I think the drawing in those worked rather well.

And finally, for those who are stumped and cant get the final endings, heres a tip. You'll need to meet up with a character named Dagger. You'll meet her if you choose not to go with Rouge after the prison bit, and she'll quiz you. For the first three questions, just go with the middle answer, then after that the answers are 2001 and 2002, blue and brown, and a pillar and block. Pay close attention to what she says in the ending with her. You'll figure out how to unlock the secret ending from her dialogue. And for those of you who cant quite get it all, heres how you do it. Go into the gallery and click into a picture. THen start right clicking and hitting forward. Eventually you'll come to a screen that says you unlocked the silver emerald so then exit that and click in the gallery area that says emerald and you'll find the final ending. Have fun. =3

Hmph, I thought I disabled the right click menu :P

Yes, the drawing's definitely changed in quality as I figured out how better to get them out of Photoshop and into Flash with a minimal quality filesize. But, as it took over a year to make the game, I think that the change in quality was totally understandable, at least from my perspective :D

Looking Up

"Very cute and imaginative."

submission: Looking Up
date: March 31, 2008

It's rare these day's to see this type of humor being succesfully pulled off anymore. So imagine my suprise to not only see it succeded at for a change, but with a quirky art style that sticks to you all the same!

The music also stuck with me too, I think one of the reasons it's rare to actually see a flash like this being pulled off is because no one knows exactly what type of music they should use. But I believe you executed the entire thing beautifully. I'm looking forward to watching what you create in the future. So keep it going mate!

What is Love?

"Hehe...most inventive flash out there"

submission: What is Love?
date: February 18, 2007

This is probably the best flash on newgrounds. Some might say the graphics are lack luster but i say this is the only type of graphics that fit this movie. OH! And not only that i love all the secrets :) like clicking on a discolored brick can have a guy pop out or have 2 guys start fighting :) This is truley a flash that is "out there".

P.S. XD YES! YOU ARE A STARCRAFT FAN! :P i saw the sign for Zerg Rush Protection :)

To the person below me he said to stop voting it off the charts and how could you be so cold hearted when your looking at the first person who ever submitted a movie to newgrounds? He's the guy who's made history here. well whatever say what you will. But this was a fun movie to watch.
