Frenzy's game Reviews on Newgrounds

[Visual Illusions 4]

Unpolished, but a good idea

Interesting game. The presentation wasn't that great; it didn't really look polished. However, it's neat idea, so if you expand on this you may have a great game here. The music also randomly changed depending on waht box I pressed on. Maybe just having a music selector would be better.

[Tic Tac Toe Cubed]

Cool

Ok, it was cool, but it would have been a lot better if O's disn't pop up in random boxes all over the place. Having one box that you could just play in would have been better. Still though, great graphics and music, cool introudction, and a great idea.

[Shoot 'Em Down 1]

Not Bad

~ Good
The small filesize was good. Also, the graphics style was pretty good.

~For Next Time
The lives system, as milinko959 said, wasn't really fair because half the time there was nothing on the screen! Maybe if it was constantly on teh screen but moving around sporadically that would be better. Also, some music would have good.

[Mission Apollo]

Good Try

This was a good try for a Lunar Landing game. The graphics were fairly good and so were the sound effects; maybe some abckground music would have been good though? It was also pretty difficult; I had trouble landing the lander on a 2D moon. Also, the gauges for fuel, etc. didn't look very good, nor did the menu. It also wasn't very organized; why not just have an instructions button there. Overall, good try.

[Meal or No Meal]

I got: Steak Dinner With Wine!

That was a pretty cool game. The videos were all high quality and it's a funny idea... I don't know why this games score is so low. The music was good and the option to skip the videos was a very good addition. Overall, an awesome game.

[BeachVolley Chanchionship]

Not Bad

This was game was pretty good. I like the part at the beginning where you had to enter your nickname, etc. That was pretty cool. The game wasn't bad, although it was kind of hard to predict a serve when it bounces off the back of nothing all the time. Overall, a pretty good game.

[A How to of Sprites]

Not Bad

Graphics: Not bad, a little bit messy though
Sound: Three different choices of songs, the first two sound the same
Effort: Some, although it seems slightly rushed
Humour: None, it's a tutorial

I think that for your next tutorial you should probably put a little bit more effort into making it look aesthetically pleasing. The information is all good but it could look better. Also, try and get a bigger variety of songs, altohugh having multiple choices i awesome.

Well, if I used more flash, then people would complain about that too, so I kept it simple. I'd rather hear complaints over the lack of graphics than hear complaints that the graphics got in the way of the tutorials actual usefulness.
The first two are different songs by different bands, just listen to them both all the way through.
I took my time with this tutorial to make sure I included the proper steps.

Like I said, if I worked too hard on the graphics, then people would complain as it got in the way of the tutorial. Substance over flash for this and I believe 3 songs is enough. Its a tutorial, not a jukebox.
Thanks for your review.

[Half-Life Soundtrack]

cool

I love the music from Half-Life, and this is a good sampler of the music from the game. However, there was no pre-loader and everything seemed a bit laggy. But besides that, good job!

[Throw Me]

Awesome

Cool game, kind of reminded me of another game in the Newgrounds Portal, 'Kitten Cannon'. Anyway, the graphics in this game were very good, the whole thing semeed very profesional and it smeed like you put a lot of efforet into it. The physics were a bit weird sometimes but that was fine, not a big deal at all. Also, when you back to the menu during a game, the music loops over the menu music. Good job!
