j00bie's game Reviews on Newgrounds

[Drive And Kill Beta 1.0]

Alright.

It's a decent 'quickie'.
It's definately fun to play, but unoriginal at it's maximum. It's not as bad as snake though... heh...
It's alright in most aspects, except for the steering, it's the wrong way around while reversing.
Intentional or not, I didnt like it like that.
It's not a bad start, but could be better if more effort was put into it..

MarkOfTheBeast responds:

Thanks for the review, and I understand that the game is pretty glitchy. I also know it's unoriginal, but this was my first attempt at understanding actionscript, and taking apart other games I had made to make this one. I put a lot of different games into this, whether it shows or not.
I also submitted this movie in 02/08/2003 , which makes it almost 2 years old. Thanks for the review, and I'll take your advice.

[Mensa Man]

Nice...

I liked this for some odd, unexplainable reason.
I don't get why some 'supposedly' intelligent people pay someone to say how smart they are though. Doesnt sound too smart to me, heh...
It's pointless, it's stupid, and I thought it was great!
Nice selection of questions.
Though the graphics were a bit basic, that wasnt the main focus of this flash.

TheOtherTruth responds:

Thank you for your review.

I'm glad you liked it!

[Ghost Motel 8]

((( FUN GAME )))

This is probably the best Ghost Motel of em all! Both games and movies included. It is very fun to play, with plenty of interactivity. The attack didnt have a very large range... you had to attack directly infront of the enemy to deal damage (if any at all), but I guess that just adds to the challenge of things. The different difficulties is a great addition as well.. just to add some replay value, which is gradually becoming a rarity in the portal.

GAME COMMENTARY: Good background music, but lacks in the boss department.

Violet-AIM responds:

Thanks for the review jOObie. Right, Joseph needs to attack up close, next to the enemies if he wants to kill them. The game was meant to be challenging. Even playing on easy difficulty might be hard for some, since if you're not careful, it's easy to lose lives. I see you like X's review style. lol

[Mario Dodge Shell!]

Glitchy

The idea for this game is pretty original and thought out, though I thought it seemed rather glitchy in certain places at times.
It wasn't 100% clear if I was being hit or not.
The sound was pretty annoying as well.
This is decent, but it's not something I'd play too often.
It needs work, but judging by the look of things, it doesnt look like thatll happen, oh well.

TvP responds:

Kae. Thanks for the review, YO.

[Imp ep.8, interactive par]

Alright!

This was strange, with the game and cancelled thing and stuff. hentai espescially, but I liked it!
The graphics werent too good, but theyre 'unique'. While the sounds are always somewhat original, but poot quality voice-acting.
The jokes in this one were all pretty good, I liked it alot!. on to see the REAL episode 8 now, heh.

RogerregoRRoger responds:

poor voice quality..there was not much voice acting in this one no?

[Mario's Time Attack]

UHOH!!!

Slight Problem.
Right Click + Forward to get to next level.
I figured this out because after I delivered the water to peach, nothing happened...
Fix, and itll be much better!

Kenney responds:

Wait men! and turn on your music, it plays a victory music!

[Ultimate Mario Quiz v.2]

Decent.

Alright, first of all.
How do you make the quiz so people can't Right-click + Forward or Play? My quiz is terrible, but Im still new to this... and well, people just Right-Click + Play and skip to the end, howd you prevent that!? PLEASE!

Anyways: To the game:
I dont like how the EXTREME Mode, you have to go back to the hard mode whenever you get the questions wrong, not like anyone cares how to spell the creator of marios name, or how many hidden blocks there are in castles 1-4. That's not hard, that's just trial and error.
Though I managed to beat all of Easy and Hard without failing, Extreme mode was irritating.
It's decent I guess, I gave it a 4/5.

CrawlAway responds:

go to a frame in the quiz and put this for the frame actions:

Stage.showMenu = false;

also, extreme wouldnt be hard if you didnt have to go back

[Earth Defender DELUXE!]

Nice game!

This has room for improvement, but the overall gameplay was pretty good.
The enemy ships didnt immediately fade out once they were hit, which made the game harder then it should be, because you always had to move out of it's way, rather annoying really.
The graphics were decent enough, though it could have been better.
A bit more detail on all the ships would greatly improve the overall rating, but I guess it's too late for that.
That's it! Nothing wrong with this at all, just the minor graphic imperfections.
Still, very fun to play! Nice job on that!

DaS2004 responds:

Ok thanks, but why did you give interaction a 0? Its a game, you control like everything...

[Bad Dudes vs. Bin Laden]

Great game Tom!

First Off: I just wanted to say, that this is my 2000th Review! I was holding off on reviewing this one, until the time came to have such an honour! But the honour is all mine :D.
Now, to the movie...
The 'Bad Dudes' part of the game is much like the original version, it looks like it, and it reminds me of how it was way back when. I wasn't old enough to remember it completely, but I remember it nonetheless.
Though it's just a massive clicking fest, it's still extremely fun for the 20 second fight.
The ending screen is fairly funny as well, it also has the 'Bad Dudes' feel to the entry.
I loved this game! Easily worth a 10/10 in my opinion!

TomFulp responds:

Thanks for the honour of making Bad Dudes vs Bin Laden your 2000th review! Rock on!!!

[lll_Spasmbot Dressup_lll]

Not bad.

As far as dressup games go, this isn't too bad.
Im not a dressup fan myself, but this was enjoyable still.
There's a wide range of things to choose from, and different people to dress up.
The music choice is alright as well, it's always hard to choose good 'dress-up' music.
I just don't think dressup games be very good, not that great.
But this one is good in comparison.

alexsmolik responds:

Well, thanks, glad you rather liked it.
Indeed dress-ups aren't the best things in the flash world, but hey, I was just beginning at the time lol. I tried to make my best, like in all my movies.
Thanks for the review,
Alex
