Blackka's game Reviews on Newgrounds

[Mario-Combat]

Good concept, overated

Let's start with the good things:
YES! Finally a playable game with Mario using his fist as a weapon! different levels different combo's and a slight challenge to play trough.
However, I think you need to work a few things for me to full rate it maximum.
First the psysics, I know it's hard but I like the way Mario jumps in the real game, this Mario jumps way higher which was annoying to jump trought the first level.

I love the way you used the camera, but it made me sometimes unable to see where I was jumping. try and work that.
Yes, there are combo's but there is nothing there to motivate me to use them. It's just a button bash. You could you know make something that would count the combo or the air juggle. Little something makes the game alot more exiting.

walljump was too easy, just hold up.. and when I fell in the lava nothing happened I just started from the beginning while all the enemies where still walking around. ex. Bowser knocked me off the arena with fire (and loads of it I liked that) and when I re-spawned the fire was still there.

last, at the end there could be a little ending something, the classic saved the princess or just a thanks for playing. Makes the edges around the game alot smoother and gives me the idea I'm not playing a beta testing game.

gratz on your earned frontpage I hope I did not disencouraged you to do these flashgames because eventually I think you will rock NG!!

4/5
good luck!

[Console Wars!!!]

I pity this game.

man, I could write so much about how I love that you combined C&C with the console wars. Retro VS next Gen.. it really could be such a masterpiece..

I just hate to see an advert every level I play through.. it almost looks like an excuse to get those adverts om my screen.. I hated it so I rated low, I'm sorry.

[Guitar Geek]

PC: A Geek's Guitar!

Guitar Geek, one of a series of good flash-based rock-games! This game has a DDR type of control, so ther eis no strumming involved. My first pity because strumming is awesome. However you would be strumming like an idiot during some solo's I think despite it's DDR control type in this game it's the best played that way.
The songs themselves where awesome, nice pounding riffage, interesting solo's I do however got the feeling some songs where cut-off after the solo to save space. Well at least you can breath if you survive those solo's.
Easy mode is very easy, I recommend for common user to start of Normal, or higher ^^ it's the same story as in a guitar hero III actually.

Making mistakes bothers me alot. IRL ofcourse, being a guitarist, but also in this game. the 'mistake-sound' had a delay. so it sounded like my good note was wrong. What also bothered me where the special effects. I love to experience a game, but the special effects where disrupting the playing field sometimes getting me distracted. Try and work that out until it meets in the middle because this game has a great potential, great songs, nice playabilty, not too much lag.
A well earned: 8/10

[Doom Triple Pack]

DOOM!

Yes a good remake of the shareware DOOM I, it actually feels like a copy pasta of the game, everything in the original shareware is there! Well almost.
I loved DOOM especially for the music (by Trent reznor) I understand the upload limit, but it's a pity.
I did not find the game slow, maybe just a tiny bit.. but nothing that bothered me.
I do not understand why there is a Mouse Sensitivity in the Options..

For all the younger FPS players here not knowing of DOOM I & II Here the cheats:
IDDQD (legend of all cheats, Godmode try it in your DOOM 3 too)
IDKFA (all Keys Weapons & Ammo, no plasma weapons in the shareware)
IDBEHOLD (use menu in top of the screen for powerup toggles)
IDCLIP (go past walls)

There are more but these are the most important for dirty cheaters.
one last word:
Thanks for preserving the FPS That started it al!

[Punk-o-matic]

Faved a long time ago!

I feved this so long ago I loved this game!
I wonder if you're ever completing that sequel out of it with new riffs graphs and everything else. Because it would have rocked so hard :D

anyway since people post their song here I might as well : enjoy! (p.s. I put this here without actual serious effort)

[Sky Diving Man]

lololol

Addictive, 8-bit and a story which made me laugh!
10.

[PALADIN: the Game]

An undoubtfull 5

The Loading was taking so long that at first I thought someone had been a fool with compressing certain data.
When I saw the first cut scenes I was certain we are talking about a NG masterpiece here.
Gameplay was great but the story is the main reason I love this game.
The easy level wasn't too hard to beat, and the unlockables will get you to play harder difficulties (unfortunately I didn't come to that).

Keep up the good work!!

(to the reviewer below me: Space ascents, F decents. You can see this in the instructions and in the tip popup)

[ASAHK.]

also found another glitch

an enemy is invurnableto mines whileyou hit them.
I was making a combo and timed a mine underneath my enemy so the blast would be like a finishing move. But it didn't affect him at all.

GoodGame by the way, good concept and playing afterwards with the cheats on is still fun (unlike most games cheats just spoil the fun)
9/10 rating (which is pretty high for my standards)

[- Desert Rally -]

Racer?

Well, I didn't feel like I was racing, but still I gave you almost maximum score (voted max btw)
This because I find it good to play it had nice twists, after4 I finally got down the way I could have beaten the game the perspective changed so it kept me awake.

The 5 I voted is because I loved the music you had a great taste by choosing that song for your game.

Keep up the good work!

[UFO Racing]

This makes poop look good

And how! The Artistic part of this game is awesome!
definitly you know how to draw and combine camera aspects into intensity.
I liked the camera moving around unlike other fellow reviewers.
I did however found the sunlight a little to dominant, it distracted me.

Then the poop part, the gameplay had nothing to offer, I didn't felt the intensity of a race game. Therefore it's extra lame to put a half game on Newgrounds.
