[The Doughnuts Show]

Donuts rule!

I thought that was pretty silly, but fun nonetheless. Some of the things that happened were cool, and I liked them. The problem with these type of games is that they get old very quickly and don't have much purpose. I found a problem by the way, for the springing donuts it said humping and for humping it said springing. You should fix that. good job.

Thanks! Sorry about the texts confusions, I kinda thought they were the same lol..

[Caves of Mordor]

Good but glitchy

This was really fun, despite it being short, but I also found some problems with glitches. When you get the first "50 exp" packet thing, (the one in the dead end) and then go down the opposite hallway there is a spot where you can stand and get unlimited exp. I don't know who else got this but I know I did. So when I leveled up to about level 35 or so in about 5 minutes, I countinued playing. That's when I got the second glitch. I went from one room to another but instead of going to the next room, I stayed in the same room and I couldn't leave. So those were the technical problems I faced. As for playability, I felt it was rather bland and didn't have much variety, which I usually like. However, it was a good quick dungeon nonetheless.

A map would help! I got lost a lot. But maybe it's just my sense of direction...

Asvegren responds:

Unfortunately, I do not know what is causing those glitches.

You know, they didn't have maps in Lord of the Rings ;) Also, the point was for you to get lost :P

Thanks for the constructive criticism.

[Pusher]

Well, it needs some work

I felt it was kinda tricky to push the blocks, because you have to be exactly lined up with it for it to move. The graphics were ok, but they could use some work. You should also make your character move faster, it gets boring fast when characters move too slow. But it is a good idea, so keep working on the game.

Jedidiah-1 responds:

To line up with the blocks you just have to release the arrow key and he will move into perfect position. It's more of tapping arrow keys at the right moment rather than holding them down.

[Dragonfire: The Lost Soul]

It's a good idea...

Just not done very well. I like the 3D, that was good, and your system of leveling up was also fine, but I had the most problems with the battle system. I could never tell when an enemy was about to hit me, and whenever I got too close they vanished. When I started attacking them, I hit them from a far distance and I wasn't really sure when to attack or how close to be.

Scross responds:

thanks for your compliments and as I have said to loads of other people I am sorting it out! :)

[The Ultimate Backmask]

Woah freaky!

Most people already know most of those things, but some of them I didn't know. You forgot one thing when making this though...A back button, the only way to get back to the song list was closing and reopening the window. Oh well.

TJN001 responds:

you were supposed to click the artists picture to get back. it said on the menu.

[Speedy Circles v0.85]

Well, it's short but it's good

I like this game, I thought it was pretty good. The game worked well and I didn't find any problems with the game right now. But this is not finished yet and I have a few ideas on what you could do. The music in the game is good, but you might want to add sound when you hit an enemy and a different sound when you hit a wall or something. To make gameplay better, you could have your circle go through a maze with moving walls and obstacles to change up gameplay a bit. I like the boss idea, but it seems the same as hitting the red circle. Maybe you could make the boss bigger, and you have to hit him in the weak spot.

Aldarnc responds:

Thanx for the review! I have already started work on a bigger boss and a few different gameplay ideas. I was also going to add sound fx in. The maze idea - i tryed one type and it didn't work very well, but that was with "breakable walls", it sucked. I may try one with just a maze though, like "get to the end before the timer runs out, or die", good idea. I'll go make it now.

[Rumble ball field 1]

Cool game!

This game was a lot of fun to play and quite addictive. However, I didn't think it had enough levels and there wan't enough challenge to the game. I'm not saying the game isn't hard, but you could add a few things to it. You might want to add a time limit that gives bonus points if you finish the level quickly. Or, if you increase the levels in the game, you could obstacles like spikes and such to add more difficulty. If you want to keep the simplicity of the game, these additions may not be needed, and the game would still rock as is.

GameBalance responds:

Hey, thanks! There will be more levels for sure. I'll made new fields. The hardnes of game is to get more score. I understand that people need some arcade feaures too. I think about it.
