Blackka's game Reviews on Newgrounds

[Quick Sand]

Yes

Great, idea, concept even art is pretty decent.
Controls, jam. Actually the whole controlling is a little bit something to get used to and the game (you lost) doesn't really give you the chance.
You just restart and die the first few minutes.
Once you get it, you might feel awesome but this game (..) really didn't offered me that much.

give it a few more twists, and think about the progession of the player as he starts out, knowing nothing of the controls and gradually develops his/her skill.. use that info.

good luck

[Bloons Tower Defense 4]

nice advertising game

I used to love Bloons Tower Defense games..
But I hate to sign up to a random website everytime I want to even save a game!
I can imagine althoug it sucks that you keep a few sweet features for premium users..

But c'mon you overdid it. Therefore this new improved way better Bloods tower Defense.. is just cheap advertising instead of the great game it should've been..

[Kill The Spartan]

half load of crap

Spranova, Endo-K & Crazy-Jay are crap.
Cardiac was a little farfetch'd but at least it had some decent animations.
Drifts was ok Hyun did a good job.
how the hell do I rate half of crap and half of good?
oh well..

control, control you must learn control - Yoda

Good thing you worked the controls in the sequel.. keep on working on it! it's actually the only flaw these series have.. but it's so important to have proper control over your character in any platformer..
I shouldn't completely bash you since I'm talking about the full series I will say that the concept is very very good! Just keep on working on those controls!

[Stamper's Quest For Fags]

yuehg.,.

The 1 thing good, was the story.

the healthpacks appear in the ground? unreachable..
and I want a smoke what do I need 50packs of cigarettes for? that was kinda wrong.
also, easy mode should be less speed.. nightmare mode plus speed.
would've been way more challenging than just a healthbar (a dick?) decreasing..

Also: the title? & Pico day?

[Ninjato Crusher]

Bad

Gameplay: It took me 3 runs to see how this game was being played.. no good explaination.. it's not just hitting space..
Animation: very poor.. just a few screens..
Art skills(Graphics): not very good.. you just drew it in half a day using MS paint and think you could get away with it.

My thought: The only good thing about this flash is that it's kinda cute. But if you can't contribute decent flash, don't do it.

[Life as a stick]

Unfinished Upload?

Ah, another stick-life flashgame. Ok you did a good job on a few things. I loved the spirit guide thing.. it was rather original.. I wouldn't left the markers there though.. make us search.. The street lines guide cars to the walls? a little wrong.. a silver tree to get money (you don;t have to trade?) but the golden get you nothing (accept the quest)?? a little wrong.
I loved the 'Fun' meter that too is rather original. playing the game will make you always lose (alot of) money.. also you can use the tab key there.. you might want to fix it..
It was cool there was a (pointless) mini-game.. but I actually avoided it because I can get the same 'fun' for less money..

There were no little cutscene's if you got a promotion or something cool.. I missed that.
There was only 1 side quest.. Why not fix the light on the school or something else? Actually trade that silver..

There where not too many job promotions, I kinda missed that too.. just very little NPC interaction.

It's a great concept but it felt like a premature-upload.. for instance where is the mute button to the music, cause it ticked me of after a while..
Dying benefits too much.. you regain your HP, Hunger, Sleep & Time and are not forwarded a day..

Just work a few (or all of these) things, I think your concepts and originality could be rewarded (greatly) on NG.

TheFrozenBunny responds:

Thanks for the detailed review. I'll help me a lot. I might make dying harm the charter more, add more quests and cutscenes in the future. But I could help you on a few things, There is a mute button, go to Menu then the music tab then mute. I thought I fixed the tab cheat, I'll check it again. The golden tree does give you somthing if you touch it and click an option. Also the driver of the car is crazy.

[Upgrade Complete!]

Everything

That was pretty good!
I loved the upgrade the whole game together idea!
It wasn't too hard to play, wasn't too easy either :) just well done

[Super Karoshi]

Very good!

I loved your previous karoshi game and I love this one!
It's original fun not too hard, not too easy :)
You spoke about karoshi-series! I hope that means there will be more!

good going!

[Xenon Prime Racing]

Graphic yes..

Graphically all has been said, it's very awesome work. Not even a drop of lag too.
I would like to see a little more gameplay to it. Powerups, afterburners that kind of things to spice this game up.
I am litterally going in curly circles for the past 10 minutes.

I liked the music it gave that futuristic touch, I would however like to hear more vehilce sound to experience that I am actually going megafast.

4/5
