El-Syd's game Reviews on Newgrounds

[2009 ? ~Chapter One~]

Nice little game

A bit short, and I wish it were a little more animated at points, but I guess the fact that it is to be continued helps out a lot, I like the mysterious feel to it, and the music really adds to that also, good use of the cloth textured backgrounds where you used them, and the fact that the hallway changed after going into a room really gave it a cool ghostly feel, whens part two coming out?

DevintheDinosaur responds:

Soon, definitely soon. It'll probably be made with the line tool for a professional feel to it.

[CrackShot!]

Nice

Very fun and addictive game and nice use of physics. The bullet time was a good idea too. It was the music and the clean but cool graphics that really pulled it together though, definitley among the funnest shooters here.

[Border Defense]

highly addictive

I really wished I'd invested in nukes when that last boss came through, great game, great variety of characters and nice graphics for them as well. The use of fun facts between each level was a nice touch as well, you havequite a good defense game here, eh?

[Pointer - CG]

nice

both versions are pretty fun, and the mouse control makes it very smooth and intuitive, but the sound effects are used a bit too sparsely and you may want to add more, not to mention the fact that there is no music whatsoever. Music is an absolute essential for a game like this, so make sure you don't forget it for your next submission.

Nice

Sweet game man and very addictive, very fun and efinitely going in my favorites. Reall y good choice of music to match your theme, great illustration, and very intuitive controls, I wish there were a way to keep track of each guns level as the level progressed, because you can't always catch when they level up when you're fucusing on an attack, but other than that, great job man, You really set a standard for defense games here on Newgrounds.

HeroInteractive responds:

Thanks, I know what you mean. Usually I look at the "more" panels where it says what level number the gun is at. Right below the gun's level # is a little bar that shows how much exp is needed before it level's up. If it is near empty then I usually have just leveled and I check.

[Presidents Challenge]

Wow

Extremely addictive and good choice of music, very educational too, I once knew the order and years, but I learned it back in elementary school, so as you can imagine, I had forgotten some of the positions of the less memorable presidents. The ultimate challenge rocks, it took me awhile to complete it on extreme, but now I have completely relearned it all. Thanks for the brush up, and keep up the good work.

[Find Your Valentine]

Great Valentine's day entry

Very cute and fun, great use of fun bright colors as well, it really adds to the theme, you made a PERFECT choice with this music, and the extended map really makes the gameplay fun and enjoyable, very cute character design as well, simple but effective. Keep up the good work.

wilsonbb responds:

Glad you like the music and game :)

[Ashlee Dance]

hahahah

I can't stand Ashlee Simpson, but this really cracked me up, great work on your selection of funny songs and Especially great work on the funny ass dances you had her doing, the farmer dance for the Cotton eyed Joe song really cracked me up. Good work man.

[US Patroler]

hmmm

drawings coulda been better, and animation as well, but the simplicity of it kinda made it cute and fun, and although it was short it was very imaginative, looking forward to seeing how your games evolved since this.

[Pacman!]

nice

cool take on an old game, could've used the classic music and sound effects, and maybe the cursor shoulda been shaped like pac man, but all in all it was pretty fun.
