"Decent game, but could be better"

submission: Xeno Tactic 2

date: May 6, 2008

At first glance, and without comparing this to the original (as it should be), it is a good game. BUT, it has some frustrating aspects. The idea that each tower has a multitude of ways to upgrade it, rather than a predefined upgrade path is commendable. Unfortunately, given the resources required to upgrade and to purchase new turrets, it prevents the full experience of diverse upgrades. Also, I believe that the specialization of the different turrets makes each worthy of use, unlike many other TD games that you can specialize in one or two towers. Unfortunately, on that same note, the lack of Anti-Air support is quite frustrating. Although it can be done with some luck and planning, more often than not, many air units will get past the defenses. With the lack of funds, it is too often that any air defenses are just not enough. Also of note is the turning speed of all the turrets - it simply is not fast enough. It would be nice if the 'speed' upgrade also had a correlation to the turning speed.
Now, on much more positive notes; The graphics were great. Unless you went to a 3d graphics engine, I don't think you could get better. The sounds, although repetitive, were suitable to the game and style. The ability to build walls, and to build turrets on top of them was a clever idea to balance a TD game with strategy.
Now, as a comparative to the first Xeno Tactics, this could've been better, if only the 'frustrating' aspects were removed. But, another game to which I am thankful for the time and effort put into making this game. It was a proper waste of time, and despite the copious amounts of frustration that I had trying to perfect my gaming style, I had fun. Which, I suppose, is what these are all about.
I look forward to either a remake, or the next Xeno Tactic.

"Good enough to make me want to review"

submission: Seven Deadly Sins

date: January 10, 2007

I was highly impressed. Here I was, thinking it would be just another so-so production. Instead, I actually laughed. It was a very good combination other ideas, to make an old genre new and unique.
Now, for the ups-and-downs:
On the up-side, everything I just mentioned. (And anything else I liked, but forgot about already)
On the negative-side...
Graphics were okay, but could've been a little better.
The fights were basic, but could've used a little better... play? I don't know exactly how to describe it.
On some of the "tasks", the constant repeating of the dialogue was a little annoying.
Which just reminded me of what I laughed about.... The "task" comments. Yeaah.... those were quite humorous.
Anyway, good job. Oh, and welcome to my favorite list :-)

"Bad bugs, good game."

submission: Moroni's March

date: April 9, 2006

Overall, the game was well put together.
Good news:
The graphics were superb. For the engine capabilities of flash, the suited this style of game well. Although the music was repetative, it fit the game, and wasn't annoying. The use of many different "skills" was a nice addition. Overall, a game worthy of a company buying the rights to, and making a full fledged game out of it.
Bad news:
This game is pierced by bugs. Many that I noticed when first playing were fixed with the latest addition. Although, some were still present. One of the minor bugs was a small time lapse when the game was momentarilly paused. The timer would start again as soon as the game was unpaused (for whatever reason), but it still had a short delay before your troops would begin to move again. The delay was roughly 20 ticks. The fighters attack-side skill does not work properly. For me, the only way to stop him was to demote him. Also, he is not needed to win the game. There are more issues, but others have already mentioned them.

"Bravo chap, simply bravo!"

submission: A Short History of Europe

date: March 19, 2006

I do say, that was by far the best flash I have seen today. There were some instances were you could clean up the speech a little, and some other parts were the graphics could've been a little more clearer, but for the most part, I really enjoyed this. A few simple fixes, and this could easly get either a 9 or a 10.

"Wasn't too bad, but could've been better."

submission: sexx dating

date: March 15, 2006

There really wasn't any game play to it. All you had to do was to keep clicking on the money, and eventually just work up all of your stats. As for censorship.... well, that isn't my place to say. For the actual affects, you could have slowed down the frames so that they didn't go by so fast. I don't know if you were just trying to make a game, or a hentai slide-show, so I did not flag this. I will let others decide.

Score: 10

"Wow."

submission: Red Riding Hood

date: March 9, 2006

Excellent music to situation presentation. The graphics were superb, and was very stylish for the theme. As some of the others reviews, I agree: This was a VERY good flash, one that I have actually recommended to others to view. I look forward to viewing more of your work, and might even watch for possible commercialization ;)

"Powerful song, with a powerful flash"

submission: Evanescence - Solitude

date: February 24, 2006

My love for Evanescence's songs aside, I really like the combonation of the artwork and style with that song. It is by far my favorite one to date.

What the *bleep* was that? It was just a short piece of *lots of bleeps*. Although it was short, it was not worth my time.
