j00bie's game Reviews on Newgrounds

[Alloy: Arena]

Nice Game!

Probably one of the best action games ive played on Newgrounds, its way up there with Alien Hominid.
A truly great great game engine, fast and fun. I could definetly see this game on the GBA I know, I would buy it (if i has a GBA). Only thing i would hope for is more developement in the close combat area, that's a bit tricky. Great work and im really looking forward to your next one!

[The Dead Case]

Cool!

Creative, excellent playability, visually enhanced, entertaining, and humourous. Great work all around. my only gripe is maybe you might want to add a feature where anything that you can click on becomes highlighted. I'd like to see more work from you.
Congrats on the awards!

[Pengu-San]

Good remake.

Looks a lot better than the original, that's for sure! The added features improve the game alot. It plays somewhat like Carious Welting in my eyes, good fun although a pause feature would be very helpful.

People with busy schedules need it for any type of flash, it's always a plus!

[Dealer 2]

Cool Dealer remake!

I'm loving this stuff! The original was great, and this clearly improves on it by adding better visuals and the game seems harder as well. Good to see this, it would have been perfect with a few more options, more interactivity and the what not. But
I can't complain. An extremely well done remake of a classic.
Great job!

[pong^2]

OK Pong variant.

Not a bad game, surprisingly addictive. Trouble is, it's TOO easy, even on the hardest level - just use the extreme edge of the bat and the computer will lose. Not bad for a quick/cheap laugh, 2 player mode would have been nice (it usually is).
The extra dimension makes things interesting at times.
Im in a generous mood, so you get a 4/5.

[Squirrel Squash]

Great!

This is far, far too much fun, fast paced, got up to about 23 million after a few tries. Fast, frantic platform action, somewhat Sonic-esque, cracking soundtrack, another winner.

The Second one is better then this one though, but still. Loved it!

[Dragonforce]

Pretty Good!

This is a fun game to play, a very good side scrolling shooter, with plenty of style of Gradius or R-Type. With plenty of weapons and frantic action, I found this game to be one of my favourites! I just found myself a bit underwhelmed with this game, changing the default controls is a must, they are very awkward to control, perhaps an option of changing controls would be nice. the music wasnt too great, but the graphics are alright.
It's decent, but it's not the best game I've played on NG. Worth playing though!

[Gorlog 2002]

Decent shooter, very good!

Not bad, it's moderately difficult, but I was able to get up to the third level with ease, after that though, very hard.
The ship just seems hopelessly underequipped throughout the game, making things very frustrating and/or difficult. Though the end of level bosses were very easy, getting to them was a bitch, much like Alien Hominid.
This game is definately worth playing, nice soundtrack and a good variety of enemies.

An easy 5/5, great work!

[Survival TV]

Smash Tv Remake

Very unique indeed. Excellent job on this, one of my favourite system games! first good remake of Smash TV that I've seen, ever!
Only a few flaws - there's no random power-ups, and if you've played the original Smash TV (like I have), you'll know that power-ups are needed desperately for survival. The Firing rate is way too slow, and it's very difficult to stay alive when you're only able to fire about three rounds a second. Fun to play, and the mouse aiming works very well, but ultimately frustrating. Needed to have more enemies than just grunts though.

Nevertheless, great remake!

[Mice 2 - Game]

Decent Game.

Not a bad concept of a game, I just didn't like the controls very much, they were too awkward. I found it difficult to control the ball very well, if at all. Worth playing a few times, not in my favourites worthy and/or Front Page material.
The sounds can get a bit annoying as well, needs more variety.
