TheMadWasp's game Reviews on Newgrounds

[UTool V2.0]

This is an incomplete project that I made for capner, not sure why he uploaded it. I would've appreciated it if he had PM'd me asking if I had completed it or if I was ever going to complete it.

For the record, everything you see on this project is my own work, the only thing that capner did was tell me what to write, other than that the graphics, sound, music and everything else is my own. I made this 2 years ago while working on Windows 8 Errors which I have now cancelled.

So if you're wondering why it's bad, it's because it's a project from 2014-2015 that I was working on for capner that I never completed. Considering I have stated on my page that I have stopped using Flash and I have in fact left Newgrounds, I find it odd that capner would release this even though it was very obvious that I wasn't working on anything flash-related.

It's my fault that this got released in it's incomplete state, but capner should've let me know first that he was going to upload it.

Minimal gamplay.
0/10

[Free Fall Fred]

Eh...

The hitboxes are too large, the bird wasn't anywhere near touching me and I still took damage. Also the character is too big for the screen and I was given barely enough time to react.
Graphically, it's not impressive at all. The music is terrible, and the game just feels unpolished.

Nice effort though.

thx for review

Another Flappy Bird clone?

Grow some originality, not even a decent remake, pipes just pop up, you die if you hit the ceiling, the bottom pipes go through the ground, the bird turns into 4 yellow squares rather than falling when it dies, and speaking of dying; you don't touch the pipes, if you click at a somewhat wrong time, the game pauses and then says "Game Over".

Terrible Clone, 1/5 for programming.

[Driver's Ed]

Considerably better than the beta version of the game you showed me, but it still feels like a beta game! The text on the grey box still goes through the box and makes it look pixely and ugly.

On the drivers ed bit, it keeps resetting me when I wanted to go back to the menu so I could check out the Fast Food mode but I didn't know how to go back since it is not said anywhere except on the Free Mode.

Free Mode is now worse, in the beta you could drive on the grass, now you can't it might as well be called "Explore the map" mode. as a tutorial before the tutorial.

Keep trying, maybe update the game a bit.

come back for online mode when its finshed

[Black&White]

Not a bad effort. I can see you put in a lot of work into this game, unfortunately there are a few of things holding back the potential this game has.
A: The intro, there is no obvious way to know if you are supposed to click on the screen or not. Normal button symbols in flash will make your cursor turn into a hand. I did not find this in this game. I sat there waiting a full 30 seconds before realizing I had to click the screen. But not just any part of the screen, the line between the black and white colours.
B: As the previous reviews have said, the platforming is really buggy. I went through some ceiling and flew infinitely forever. Some platforms are usable, but I found myself giving in very quickly.
C: The plot itself, while being slightly unoriginal isn't too bad, however, the idea of moral choices in this game didn't really affect much. You just got a different note depending on whether you chose to be good or evil.

Overall, I'd give the game 5/5...because I'm a fucking idiot. No not really, because this game deserves a higher rating than 2.
But seriously, you need to have a huge fix on this game.

[Blue Karma]

Can't wait to see this fully, normally I would collaborate with you, but your skills look to advanced for you to have someone like me.

SMKS responds:

Working on a more polished version as we speak. But before I resume with the game it I have to complete the novel. Thanks :)

[Big mario]

This isn't Mario, it's horrible, if I touch the bugs I immediately die, the health drops too fast and their actually aren't many platforms to jump on, I got on a certain platform and my character wouldn't jump high enough to get on an older platform. Like, what the hell!?

I will award you 2 stars for making a platformer game with a high-score system, it's a good concept for a platformer, it just needs way more adjustments.

[Student Memory]

Pretty decent for a match-the-card game, the music is nice, the pictures are drawn out well, overall I'll give you 4 stars, I think that you could add more levels with you having to get 3 cards instead of a pair? If that's possible, or just more levels with more cards for each level, either way, good game, but I want to see more levels.

[Steve 2.0 Alpha 0.1]

Not a bad idea, but gets stuck after the tutorial, or have you not made that part yet?
Still interesting, if you're updating this, then how about adding enemies?

I have realised some people have yet to know the Blue Squares are buttons, and clicking them takes you to the levels. I'm fixing this.
