[TheExtreme Stick Tutorial]

Well made.

This was well made, however I noticed the whole thing (apart from motion tweens, which is basic) covered nothing other than how to draw like you. Not only this, it didn't really tell you how to draw, so much as show a picture of what you would've drawn. Now, you did say there were many different ways to draw these things, and this is only your style, so it's not like you think this is a total tutorial when it's not. I also noticed that the blood, explosion and teleport effects weren't really a tutorial at all, they were just animations, you included nearly no information on how you drew them. In conclusion, it seemed more like you just wanted to show off your drawing skills.

TehKillah responds:

I'm not the kind of person who likes to show off by the way. It had a part where you could see frame by frame how they were drawn.
However I appreciate your review (:

[How to Grow Another Head]

Not too bad.

This wasn't bad. Unfortunately, I preferred the first one, if only because the second one was nearly the exact same and it bored me. Maybe if you'd done it a little different, instead of the exact same thing with better graphics. Other than that, it was good, and (the first one was) original.

Good game.

I liked this game, but I had a few problems; the tutorial wasn't helpful enough. It didn't tell you how/tell you thats it's necessary to hug the wall. It took me a long time to figure out that that's how you get past the cameras. Secondly, it was really annoying to get far in the game (right to the end) not have enough codes, turn back only to find there IS no way to get back (room with all the lasers, thats a one way trip.) It was also really frustrating how unrealistic the puzzles were. Here you are, best burglar in the world and you don't even know how to stop a chair from rolling. If they were heavy boxes, I could understand not being able to pull them, but seriously, who can't pull a rolley chair? Apart from these problems/annoyances, the game was great and enjoyable.

[Choco Draw]

Good.

This is pretty awesome, I love it. One question though, is the English purposely bad?

[SC Guitar Maniac Dx 2]

It was a good game.

It was a good game, and made well, however, I found nearly all the music was emo. I'll admit I only played about 5 songs, but apart from the mario songs, even the ones I didn't play had emo names, so I didn't bother. A larger variety of music would have been nice.

Shinki responds:

Quite a few of the early amateur songs are of that style, as band songs are generally less complex to play. All of the unlockable songs and the pro songs are instrumental.

[colourPod]

Very fun and orginal.

This game was very fun, and very original but I had one problem. Around 4500 pixels, the game just slowed right down. We're talking 1 pixel every 15-30 seconds. I played like this until 5200 pixels, but it didn't get fast again and I got bored and closed the window. Did I beat the game, get a glitch or what?

[Tingle's Balloon Escape]

Generic.

This is yet another incredibly generic game where you swap tiles in order to make three in a row. The 'aim' of this game is to get a particular piece to the bottom, a highly unoriginal idea. This game would be good if I hadn't seen hundreds of slight variations on the exact same game.

Umm... What?

[Flashcraft - TD]

Good, but too easy.

Overall this game was good but too easy. I enjoyed it, but since it is just a flash version of an existing game obviously I didnt rate it too high for style. I'ts well made however, not confusing and easy to play. good game! :)

[! Music Mania !]

Well, it was good but

It was great but for one thing: lots of the the mini-games already exist as full games (fcb, turntable game, etc.). Not that you guys stole them, but its like you put all the games you made into one big game. The games that didnt already exist were fairly generic(DDR, letters coming down the screen etc.) so it wasnt that orignal, but they were made well so it was fun to play. I also noticed that the very first game with the guy with the huge rectangle head dodging the spikes set to Defcon Zero was extremely similar to the game Marvin Spectrum.

[Incubus Pulsum]

Great game.

I had just one problem. some combinations just didnt work. this made the game extremely fustrating, so I didnt even bother playing past level 2. upleftdiagonal didnt work at all for me, and neither did the left+right combination. this wasnt just my timing, I mean it didnt work, i'd hold up+left, purple would light up, but A just didnt do anything. same for left+right. This ruined the whole game for me, but I imagine its something to do with my computer and not the game. Possibly it's because I use firefox. I really wish i didnt have this problem as the game looked really enjoyable.

Glaiel-Gamer responds:

some keyboards limit the amount of keys you can press at a time to 2 because they can manufacture them cheaper that way. It sucks I know but it's one reason I used A instead of the spacebar. Anyhow the only solution you have is to get a better keyboard
