"Nice Little Game."

submission: Zombie Swarm

date: November 1, 2005

Being a huge zombie fan, I quite enjoyed your game. Sure it could have had levels and been more advanced (as you mentioned), but it was still entertaining enough and nicely put together. Also, it kept me playing for a while, which is always a huge bonus.

Good sound, although maybe some music could have added a bit more atmosphere, and I liked you art style.

Overall, definitely above average. Keep up the good work Alessandro!

Score: 10

"FINALLY!"

submission: The Rice Hat Warrior

date: October 30, 2005

I have been waiting quite some time for this game to hit Newgrounds, so yay and stuff that it's finally here. You have already mentioned the slowness thing, but meh, the game still rocks. I particularly like the style and art (no faces, good move!).

Make more games, forsterbar.

Score: 9

"Haha, I liked it."

submission: Daily2oon09242005

date: October 2, 2005

Another great SS submission. One of the best I have seen so far, I liked the little story and the visuals. Nice music choice too, BTW. I'm glad you decided to submit this as a stand alone flash, it does it more justice.

Keep it up!

Score: 10

"I believe you have my b-b-beer."

submission: Dr0kn Space

date: August 28, 2005

Haha, Office space is one of my favourite movies, so I always enjoy a good tribute, which this was.

Something about hilarious still frames with mouth movements always gets me, and you couldn't have picked a better scene. I agree with Twiminy's comment about editing the stapler, but this is a minor detail.

Now that I have finished laughing, I have one final comment: Make more plz.

Score: 7

"Above average."

submission: Mutant

date: August 22, 2005

Well, although you said it was incomplete, I still found it to be a pretty good game. Presentation wise, it was nicely done, although the graphics were a little lacking in parts. Still, there were also some great graphics present, in particular, the main character. I thought the enemies let this down a little.

In terms of gameplay, it wasn't bad either. Gave me some good old "Rampage" flashbacks, but the controls seemed a little sluggish at times. It also got a little repetitive, so maybe better level design could be an improvement.

Overall, above average, but it needs some more work. There are plenty of good things about this game, but it's not an even balance.

Score: 8

"Very Nice."

submission: Battle for the Skyway

date: August 9, 2005

I was actually pleasantly surprised by that flash. In my opinion, the intro was a little dull and lacking, and also somewhat drawn out, but you made up for this with some quality (if simplistic) animation. The characters well well-drawn and designed, and you had a good theme running through your submission. From a direction point of view, your scenes were very well done, with good execution, making up for some of their simplicity.

The audio was decent enough, and fitted the actual animation well. Nice music selection, and a decent amount of fx gave you a good score here. I also liked the story (from what has been told so far).

Great work here Giovanni, I hope to see more of your work in the future. It may have been short, but that doesn't mean it wasn't quality.

Score: 10

"Woo Hoo."

submission: Curfew - Video Portal Pls

date: August 7, 2005

There just isn't enough quality 3D on Newgrounds at the moment - enter forsterbar! I really liked that submission, everything about it worked well. The graphics themselves were detailed and smooth (I'm talking about the high-quality version of Curfew here), and worked really well with the subject matter.

Great audio choice, although perhaps the sound effects were a little lacking. This doesn't matter though, as the focus was definitely on the graphical side of things.

The story was brief, but cool, and gave insight into more detailed adventures (possibly in the future?). I really like the style of world you set this short in, so extra points there.

Overall, excellent work yet again forsterbar. This is definitely a cry for a Video Portal if ever I saw one!

Score: 9

"Milky Goodness."

submission: Milk Madness

date: August 7, 2005

Haha, THAT WAS GREAT. Long have I waited for the milk game to appear, and now my dreams of commanding the dairy cannon can finally be realised.

Presentation and stylewise, you get top marks. Although a simple little game, the graphics were nicely done and animated, and its good to see things like menu's, help, credits, and nice title screen. It certainly adds to the professionalism level. I was hoping for different difficulty setttings, but maybe in the sequal ; )

The music and audio were quality (the sound effects all had a certain 'milkyness' to them), and that song is still looping in my head. A perfect choice for theme of the game.

It's downfall is probably it's lack of replayability, but its still got a whole heap of novelty value to make up for that. Overall, nice job with the game Dan and Paiste. Do more collabs!

Score: 10

"Video Portal Plz."

submission: Castle 3D-Video PortalPLS

date: August 2, 2005

Great work there Chrispington.

Being a huge fan of all things medieval, this submission really appealed to me. The design of the castle was great, and it's good to see work of this quality appearing on Newgrounds.

The graphics themselves were good quality, bearing in mind the horror file size restrictions, and the audio track was a great choice (hmmmm, battle music). Even though the camera was just doing simple sweeps of the stronghold, it was still very interesting looking at all the detail you put it (I actually watched it through a few times, without noticing the loop, such was the glory).

This submission is further evidence that NG needs a Video Portal.

NOW!

Score: 8

"Another Great Collab."

submission: For Sevenstar...

date: August 1, 2005

Some more great work from the SS. I really love the collabs you guys put out, and this one was no exception (even if the subject matter was a little sad). All the usual hallmarks were there, including the good old humour factor.

I found there were more contributers than usual in this submission, which was cool, and also added a huge variety of different styles to the Flash. I think I probably liked Threestars movie best, but it's always hard to pick favourites.

I have only one request for future SS productions, and that is this: Please put a "back to menu" button in there somewhere. I know you probably want everyone to watch them through without being able to do it, but it would just be a nice litle feature to have.

Keep up the great work, and I'm looking forward to seeing more from you all in the FP.

BTW, get well soon Sevenstar. The Portal needs you ; )
