El-Syd's game Reviews on Newgrounds

[TMNT Mikeys Dance Party]

Tubular

This was a lot of fun to play around with, plus I've always been a huge turtles fan.

fallinfrog responds:

thanks for reviewing. im glad it was fun, i didnt originally want to post it, but a friend said i should. why not, right? glad i did now.

[Meal or No Meal (PDG)]

Nice spoof

Pretty fun to play good use of sfx and background chatter, and funny names for some of the dishes as well like that hot dog vomit roll or whatever, nicely done.

[Take Your Pick]

hmmm

Pointless, but well made nonetheles, great choice of music and background photos had a SNL intro sort of feel to it, the gamer itself though had no challenge and was therefore boring, but you're on the right track I think.

[Bug's Birthday Bash]

Not bad

Usually happy birthday flashes suck ass... hard, but this was actually pretty cool. Happy B-day Bug

Fawx responds:

uh.

[Super D]

nice

Awesome game, great gameplay and a decent puzzle as well the 3d adds a very nice touch to this game.

[Rover Archer]

Nice game

fun game play and god music, might feel more like archery if arrow was fired on release rather than on click.

[Creating a Hand]

well done

Nice work combining your tutorial, it's funny, cause I often think of those old soviet propoganda posters to when working in the graphic arts. Once again nice work on everything. Have you considered doing one on feet? as an artist, I've noticed that people seem to notoriously have a problem with getting the dimensions right. You are a crusader in the fight against noodle fingers, help defeat misshapen feet as well.

[Doodle Doll 2]

Very innovative

aside from the fact that you should add music, this is very good, and noone should give it a low score since the doll will be done by them, then again, not everyone can draw, but, I think its a cool idea.

chesster415 responds:

Thanks. There is a customizable jukebox in the upper left hand corner, for music though. If you can't be bothered to search the internet for an mp3 to load, just leave the address bar blank and it will load a random mp3 from the audio portal.

[Rift War]

Adiictive

Didn't realize two hours have past, I have to go to bed. This game is great I love it's challenges and strategies the use of scenery as a defense is cool too. The only thing that bugs me is that it limits where you can build your walls which can be very inconvenient at times

[Saber Duel]

Completely new and innovative

I am obvious ly no jedi though, I have to say this is a really cool game especially since my head is basically permanently adorned with headphones, if anyone is considering voting low out of lack of graphics, don some headphones and give it a shot, you'll find it surprizingly fun, and a cool unique challenge.

kaolinfire responds:

Thank you very much :D It's definitely best played with headphones and with your eyes closed.

It was tempting to make the scores/etc dance around the screen to be extra distractions, and it would be kind of neat to have some pretty visual effects that didn't have anything to do with what was going on in the game (or very little, maybe), but ... well, maybe pretty geometic patterns like you're squeezing your eyes shut too tight. I'll have to see how hard it is to do something like that behind the score info. Maybe.

And thanks :D
