zac333's game Reviews on Newgrounds

[Combiner]

Eh. This game wasn't exciting or exhilarating. Not even for me, when I play mostly puzzle and logic games. I like the concept, but there should be more punishment for not using all of the colors on the board. In fact, if you were really ambitious, you would make it so you could only pass through the door if all colors would be used. Gameplay-wise, it felt a tad tedious, especially when having to constantly move back-and-forth, chasing down the colors when the solutions to most of the levels were pretty obvious. I played for about half an hour and nearly completed about 70% of the playable game. I wasn't really too impressed overall. I wouldn't say that I wasted my time, however, as it was just interesting enough to make me play for a good bit of time.

I feel like if you made the movement a little more fluid, increased the difficulty a bit, and added some kind of reward for full completion of a stage (if that's even possible for all of them) and/or some kind of punishment for not full completion (I don't know, perhaps a score keeper or something of the sort?), then I feel as if the game would be a little more engaging.

Not a bad game at all, I just feel as though there was something missing. I hope my review helps.

Good job,

[What's in the Box?!]

This isn't even really a game. Slightly funny, but boring after about 20 seconds.

[Shadow Match]

It's a nice attempt, but it's boring, tedious to check every shadow, and awkwardly silent. Sorry, just not full game material. Add a nice loading menu, some music, some sounds, music and sound options, and you might have something less painful to play. Sorry.

[Epic Battle Fantasy 3]

Great

This game is highly addictive and amazingly fun. For some reason, it won't give me the Treasure Hunter Medal in Town, but I am sure I got all of the Town's Treasures! Behind the shop, in the old building, everywhere! Also, some fights towards the end seem impossible. Really. The ancient monoliths in the dark area are just crazy.
Still, great game, 5/5 and 10/10.

[Flash Drawing Game]

Alright

Fine for an attempt, but I recommend trying to add in future tools such as:

Eraser
Fill Bucket
Color Wheel
Save
Straight Line Tool
Curve Line Tool
Reset

After that, it's just a matter of creating a fairly nice looking drawing game with a simple set-up and some originality.

After a while you can try to go more advanced by adding:

Smudge
Blur
Gradient Tool
Online Public Gallery
Original Effects

Good luck on your future game creating, guy.
I hope this helped.

Stuck

Very weird. Can't go anywhere at this point, i'm stuck with a screwdriver, wrapper, and note. I don't get it.

Anyways, you might wanna speed up the audio. It goes so slow that it over leaks into other scenes.

Also, maybe add more info on your inventory items (Like an info box)

[Crush The Castle 2]

...?

-3 stars for the fact that I had to ask 'Does that 300,000 pound brick resting on your skullcap hurt, princess? Then just die!' to my comp. when something heavy is on a person, they should die. Not ignore the deathly piece of heavy shit on their skull caps.

[Goodgame Poker]

Bleh

To be honest, I hate it. The poker aspect is fine. Its just the fact that theres no max. level on greenhorn/beginner rooms so your forced to pay for chips because level 20-100 people sit in the noob rooms and bully you to death. It ruins all of the fun in the game. Sorry, but its just....so frustrating to see high levels or lower levels with credit cards flooding rooms and bullying. Thats not poker, thats dumbness.

[Ragdoll Ballance]

I liked it

But I dont understand why people say these levels are too hard? I beat 8 pretty fast compared to level 10, which I still beat at a decent speed. I must admit, it is a bit slow, but if it were faster I would never have beaten 8 or 10. As for the problem with 8, just make the shins lay straight on the 2 boxes (Boxes must be together below the goal) and balance him upright to keep him in for 10 seconds. No, its not easy, and it did take me several tries, but not too hard. As for 10, thats just a luck balancing act. Overall, nice game. Would enjoy better if it had music with mute button optional, and a "You win" screen at the least? Also, maybe after the "You win" screen let it take you to a menu with different modes. And maybe add a start menu, with these modes locked? Just a suggestion.
