"A waste of time"

submission: Pwn That Noob!

date: July 7, 2008

I gave you 2 stars since you had the ability to make your buttons work, but ...well, you've made a 'click to see a brief scene' game.

These aren't the greatest pieces to make to begin with... and would require a lot more work and quality to make it worth looking at.

There's no real redeeming factors here. Sorry. Work on your art style, work on your creativity, work on your presentation... look around, get a feel for what general standards are and then shoot for them.

Score: 2

"It was a somewhat decent idea..."

submission: Save Kids From Propaganda

date: July 3, 2008

But something like this is best reserved for annoying chain emails that you would send to people you keep in contact with but don't really give a damn about. There's no real content and no real replayability... hell, there's not even all that much to interact with.

A game would better be used to have a goal in mind... this isn't so much of a game as it is an interactive one-shot gag.

Score: 8

"Not bad... but..."

submission: Metal Slug Brutal

date: July 3, 2008

While homage games are always a pleasure to see, this didn't have the frantic feel of the metal slug series. This is to be expected and I'm sure it was a great exercise in coding a side-scrolling game. As far as that goes you did pretty well. I didn't play far enough to see if you had any alternate-height platforms.

I'd be more interested in seeing some original content as well, aside of reusing sprites which have been used in the original to mimic the original. Still, bravo on the utilization. I'd recommend upping the speed of the player's gun though. It felt sluggish to me... no pun intended.
