[Fly and Shoot]

Good, but not great.

The graphics could've been better, but they weren't horrible. The gameplay was very repetitive, and it took much too long to increase in difficulty significantly. On level 13, for some reason no enemies came, and I just had to quit. Every time you upgrade the reloading speed, it says you don't have enough money, even though it still upgrades it.

Also, after you kill an enemy, if you keep shooting you will gain points for a short while. in this way, when I'm supposed to kill 10 enemies, I can get away with killing only 3. When the screen is "opening," it doesn't show all the upgrades you have, and if there i an enemy when it's "closing," it will show over the closing screen.

Another thing that bugged me a bit was how the cursor went under most of the things on the screen. Also, you should put labels next to the bars so people understand what they are immediately. It took me a while to figure it out.

I know, this seems like a lot. But hey, I played up to level 13. This game was still sort of addicting!

Keep trying. You're not too bad. ;)

[special effects tutorial]

Not bad...

Although some of the things weren't perfect (in the blood part, you said to convert the blood to a movieclip and then shape tween, which you can't do), it has some good information for people who are just starting to use Flash. I would suggest making it so that the music doesn't play more than once. (The music plays again every time you go back to the menu, which caused me to quit out a few times because of how annoying it was getting.)

But you had some good stuff there, and I bet a lot of people benefited from this tutorial. Keep up the good work!

[Sprintster]

Pretty cool game.

The controls were easy to get the hang of, and I found it very addicting. It was just the right difficulty level (for me, anyways), and it was simple yet fun.

Just so you know, on the main page thing, it says Sprinster instead of Sprintster. Not sure if that as intentional or not, but whatever. That doesn't really effect the game at all anyways.

[NG Preloader: The Game2.5]

I played the first one of these.

I don't think it deserves 10/10, but it was good. I liked the idea, although many times I just clicked on buttons randomly because I had no idea what was different about one of them. :P This one is better than the last, as far as I can remember. The music was good, the graphics were alright, and the gameplay is a little... odd... but it's still fun.

Good job, and keep game making. You still probably need to learn a lot more about ActionScript, but this isn't bad. You should probably try to make a different kind of game next time. By the way, what is it with all you people being behind me these days? It seems like that's what everyone's location is. What are you, stalkers?!

Well, there's my review. Keep it up, and I'll attempt to keep you up. Or something like that. I dunno. Until next time!

Meh, to each his own. but thanks for reviewing. Hmm... im getting that alot. Perhaps next time ill make it slightly easier to tell the difference between the right and wrong.

I know... i SUCK with action script. infact, i bearly did any at all. Alax81 did most of the main action scripting such as how to make the score ect. I might try to make a different kind of game thoe, but i <3 this idea. O SHI- Stalkers! WHERES MY RAPE WHISTLE?!?

alright, thanks for reviewing.

[Up Bug]

A fun little game.

Though the graphics probably could've been better, this was a fun game that I enjoyed. I liked the sound effects, and the little flight check thing was cool. I would make it a bit longer, and perhaps add some more power-ups, but other than that and improving the graphics, I liked it. Keep up the good work.

[Atomz 2]

Pretty sweet.

I love chain reaction games, and this was one of the better ones. The graphics were great. I loved the constantly changing colors and pretty explosions. The sound effects were fitting, and playing the game was really fun. This is one of the more original games I've seen, mostly because of how the molecules follow the mouse. Keep up the good work. ;)

[EggBombz-Happy Easter :)]

Nice.

That was short and fun, although not very original. You might want to add some special things like powerups, and have the bombs become faster as time goes on. Maybe add lives. Other than that, nice job. Not original, but executed well. Now just add a little EGGS-tra effort. HA! GET IT? EGGS-TRA?!

*sigh*

Yeah, yeah, I know. :P

MoniMC responds:

HAHAHA yea thanks!! =D

[Bubble Pop]

Fun game.

Although it's simple, it kept me interested for a while. I only played it twice, but those two times were good. I liked how the fish stretched if it moved faster. The graphics were cool, as was the music. The powerups added a nice spice to the game. Although they didn't do too much for me, the game wouldn't be as good without them.

Thanks for creating this cool game. I hope you keep up the great work!

[Dieflash v1.4]

It's much too easy to die.

You need to make it so that the character has more health, or the guns do less damage. I couldn't get very far, so it might get better as it goes on, but I don't really know. Sorry. XP The graphics were pretty good, though, and it wasn't that bad of a game from what I saw. Keep it up.

[Snowboarding!]

Not too bad.

It was fun, but there wasn't enough to it. Add some more things, like power-ups, and make the graphics a bit better. Other than that, this wasn't too bad. I would suggest adding sound effects too, and making some animations. (For example, show the stick figure turning to slow down, and have him fall over when he hits something.)

Nice job, and keep up the good work. ;)
