IceDragon64's game Reviews on Newgrounds

[Click n Color]

Nice game

It looks good and works well

I think I will show some girls- they would probably like it more than stickmen violence.

I like the way you colour in one section and the other relevant parts get coloured in spite of something in the way. I liked the way the lolipop coloured into sections when you poured into one section. Unfortunately the tiny bit crossed by the hair wouldnt colour in, but generally its really well done.

Its not specially my cup of tea, but I know a good game when I see one.

Some appropriate music for each scene would give you even higher ratings- imagine something Groovy 60's for the yeah baby picture!

EmeraldTokyo responds:

Thanks. It is a girl's game. You're right. But, hey. I am a girl so. :-p Thanks for the review.

Luv,
Chrissy.

[Bahamon Tutorials #1]

Good Tut.

As far as i could follow it, it looked OK and was well laid out. You went to a lot of trouble to show us how it should look.

A bit of sound might have been good, but not important.

A few spelling etc. details, which are important in educational stuff-

Intro ...comming...

...animation. Press...

...different color...
...result._More...

Get someone else who DOESN'T know what its about to check spelling and grammer. You and I read what we expect to read.

bahamonStudios responds:

thanks for the review, unfortunately the spelling mistakes have been a problem for me a long time now, but thanks for the review

[Guess You!]

Didn't play it but I liked what I saw

I studied everything from the A notes to the point of play.

Spelling, grammer etc good
Instructions seemed full and complete
Layout and style all there.

Maybe you could put in some sounds other than the music. Music Ok, but the end/beginning of the loop jars slightly- I don't know much about sound.

As far as I can see it is what it is supposed to be. However, you should put in proper credits referring to anything that inspired you
rather than just saying 'don't tell me...'

Hired responds:

Thank you,
You are correct in the credits...I didn't think out it that way. Thanks

[Space training]

Just good enough...

to pass, but please improve.

Quite a good shooting gallery, but scoring didn't make sense. I was going to say exactly what superdudeforever said, I had also done a test 3 blocks in four shots should = 75% not 39.
If the score includes some other factor, you should say so. I tried quite a few times and also had bullets go straight through. Likewise, I gave up before getting to the second level.

Sound would be good.

Bam2323 responds:

well try beating it its alot more fun after that :-@

[Jetpacker2]

I liked it

Challenging.

Although it is not particularly original, it is quite complex with lots of layers and various sounds.

Background music (with an off button!) would be good.

Maybe he should be able to walk left & right- jet packing in tiny bursts seemed silly and irritating.

Bam2323 responds:

allright

[=Tetris=]

playable game but...

Identical to so many other Tetris versions in Flash. If you really haven't stolen it, then put in Tetris in search and see why I blammed it.
Sorry, but no.

Just do something new with it, we love Tetris.

xij responds:

i'm working on a version 2 right now so i will empruv this

[Micro-organism sim.]

Good little game!

Interesting. I would not have believed that anything with that few kb could get through the portal, until I played it!

what does LMB stand for- I couldn't make any bacteria!

Little sounds would have been fun
chewing sounds or something!

WallArcher responds:

LMB -> Left Mouse Button(I should've said simply 'clicking' =).. you probably spawned some without realizing you did xD

[Pokemon Quizz 1.4]

OK

messy spelling and grammer but adequate quiz.

fun teen movies can have all the crappy english you can write, but tutorials, games and quizes should really have good spelling to give confidence to the viewer- especially all titles and large print (quiz is spelt with one Z)

cOq was just horrible to you. I am not interested in Pokemon but I viewed, reviewed and voted as you asked.

Aprime responds:

Thanks but this means alot to me if this goes in, you could at least have gaven it a 6, any way, thanks for the quiz thing or should i say quizz thing lol, please vote again, before this gets blamed, im crap at spellin cos my mums thai, and she da one dat teached me, lol, thanks for the advice, vote 5!

[Eagle's quest]

I agree with Jeffshaw

1.Why is the eagle= owl in picture
2. Some coins were unpickupable- 1st 1 in each scene?
3. In instructions it showed as blank =1pt and there was no button to get out of instructions.
4. Game got boring stay right near top and you can get nearly all of them in no time.

However, its not too bad- I never blam a game unless it is seriously naff because I know it takes quite a bit to make one and you did have sound and levels

Bam2323 responds:

thanks....i will try to fix these problems

[The Tutorial]

I might use this

I haven't seen many tutorials, but this is one of the better ones. I read Kano's review and your reply. I think you both have a point. It is true that to inspire confidence you have to show Flash ability beyond that which you are teaching; however I think you may be right to keep the background simple.
Sound, though, would be a good way of showing ability. Especially since you taught us to do it, you needed sounds as well as the music-bleeps on the buttons etc. I thought the music was OK, but perhaps it needed to change in different parts of the tutorial or something.

Get someone with good writing skills to proof-read your tutorial. remember that in a tutorial, you are a teacher, not a text-talk dude, so it must be perfect grammer and spelling- Having said that it WAS better than most Flash writing. I think Flash should always be written with a capital.
Thank you for this tutorial, I really will give it a go.

Hi-dud responds:

thanks, i like how the new people like this. This is a tutorial for beginners only! thank you, so when you were talking about my writing... were there any mistakes?
