Archawn's game Reviews on Newgrounds

[Particle Havoc]

Awesome!

Congratulations on finally publishing your first game! You did a really nice job with this, it's like one of those addictive games that you play for an hour and a half without even realizing it.

MAY MUCH AD REVENUE COME YOUR WAY MY GOOD SIR

raidthewood responds:

Thanks ben. =]

[Space Gold Farmer]

Awesome job!

Yours was one of the best in the challenge, in my opinion. It's very addicting for such a small file size.

Sorry the compilation never made it through, though--I would have loved to see everyone's part in one place.

Version2 responds:

Yeah, I was hoping more people would get their sources to you too. There were a lot of good ones in there! Oh well, if you do another challenge collab, count on me to submit something new :)

[Newgrounds Portal Radio]

Unoriginal

There are plenty of radios out there, and this one is no different. The layout is cumbersome and hard on the eyes, there is no way to filter out "dead" songs, and the lack of any visualizer makes this radio completely obsolete.

Not to mention the fact that you stole the code I gave you to make this.

MCarsten responds:

Hi there Archawn. I didn't stole any code. Actually I saw your NG Radio already, still I created the engine by myself and your radio is the best from all ever! Thanks for review :)

[Recordshop Tycoon]

Fun!

I really enjoyed playing this, it was a nice waste of time.

The only problem I noticed was that some of the text boxes didn't update or show any text. ("No. CDs" on the Stock Menu always stays at 0, and the "Money Earned", "Marketing Costs", and "Net Result" fields only work some of the time).

Overall, fun game.

Xeptic responds:

Thanks for letting me know, will look into that :)

[Toastache]

Pretty funny!

I love silly minigames like this, and I think you pulled it off pretty well. I thought it was a bit too easy, but it kept me playing for a good ten minutes and that's all that really matters.

I ran into a few problems with the collision detection with the platforms once it started going really fast, but other than that it was a fun waste of time. ;3

OmarShehata responds:

Haha, thanks for the review man, glad you liked it!

Since this was kind of rushed, I did sort of rush the collision system. So that's probably why.

[shrink it]

Good idea, poorly executed

You should make it so that if ANY part of the smiley touches the square, you win. I hate how it has to be the exact center. That screwed up most of the levels for me.

NPGames responds:

it was tooo easy with any part of smiley, it just added an extra challenge

[Mr Agnry Faic 3]

Really creative!

I like this a lot. It's a simple, fun game with good gameplay and some cool music.

My only concern is with the "Paint 'em" mode... It gets annoying when you're trying to catch a green guy and then your brush turns red when he hits the corner...

MrRandomist responds:

Thanks, glad you like it and got my aim

yes paint'em mode had that concern but there isnt really a way around it, unless you had an idea...

[Interactive Shotgun v1]

Meh

I'd have loved some more interactivity. For example, Make it so the player can cock the shotgun manually (rather than clicking and it playing the animation). The graphics are a bit boring, too. Maybe make them more realistic? (...photoshop...)

VirusX117 responds:

Thanks for the idea. I'll try to see if I can figure out how to do that. This is only my 3rd ever completed flash project. Also, I'm one to learn by myself without help from a tutorial so that may be a ways down the road. But thanks for the input! And bullocks on photoshop, if I wanted to use that I would have just made a stop-motion flick with that instead.
