"Points for originality"

submission: Insane Maze 1.5

date: July 30, 2008

I hate mouse maze games. The Portal sees tons of them every day, all of them horribly made MS Paint looking mazes with giant red dot endings.

You did something good, though. You managed to take the game and make it interesting. Nice work on the obstacles. You made a mouse maze game worth playing!

It is clear that you put effort into it. The overall presentation was good.

I think the game suffered from a lack of diversity of music. I didn't much like the song you chose, and it would have been nice to see (hear) a few more songs. Glad you chose from the AP, though :)

As well as more songs, I think you would have benefited from some way to mute the music (or go between tracks if you had had more than one).

You should have a button to go back to the main menu from the 'Level Passwords' screen.

One thing I would have liked as well (because I feel it would have added to the presentation) would be if you had created your own cursor rather than keeping it the default. It could be something simple; just a little something to keep the presentation consistent and maybe give a better idea about the mouse's boundaries (though I know it's all about the point of the mouse).

Nice job!

Score: 7

"Very promising."

submission: Spin 2

date: July 8, 2008

This has the potential to be an awesome game. It's quite fun, very addictive, and unique! Nice job. I liked the simplicity of it.

What you ABSOLUTELY need is some music. Get a good bouncing soundtrack (check out the Audio Portal! There's tons of good music if you look for it) and that will keep players entertained longer. If you REALLY wanted to go all out, you could make the game synchronize with the music, too. It's a pretty popular technique used in Flash games right now, and I think it would really work with your idea.

There's some room for improvement presentation-wise, too. You should use a less recognizable and more interesting in-game font than Times New Roman. There are lots of free fonts out there. Check out dafont.com. Also, maybe you could have some animation going on in the background instead of a plain black screen. Maybe themed levels?

That's pretty much all I've got to say. I liked it! Great gameplay. Just work on a few things and this could be a gem.

"Nicely done."

Loved it. Great trippy stuff going on. Looked really cool, sound was good, and it didn't make sense. Thumbs up!

"Incredible..."

submission: Shroomy Chaos / Paranoia

date: December 22, 2007

I've been checking out your older Flash submissions because I love what I've seen so far, and I think I've just discovered a new favorite.

Nothing short of amazing.

I absolutely loved the artwork, and you really managed to translate some difficult things into the animation. Great choice of music. It fit the scenes perfectly and absolutely helped in creating your atmosphere.

Well done. I'm extremely impressed.

Score: 10

"Amazing."

submission: SAATANA

date: December 15, 2007

I loved it. It had that violent-psychedelic "get away" vibe that I loved about PERKELE. I'm really happy you chose to use my song in your submission, and I love what you've done with it.

Great stuff -- recommending it to ultra-violence.

Score: 7

"VERY good animation."

submission: Sexy Emo Hentai Porn

date: August 3, 2007

I've got to say, that's some of the best animation I've seen. Extremely professional. You'd easily be able to get work as an animator.

You should definitely finish it. It was very well done. EXCELLENT job on the lip-sync (possibly the best I've seen on NG).

I'd have given you a higher rating if it were finished. The style of animation and the song are not typically things I enjoy, but I didn't keep this in mind when voting (5 :D) because of the high quality.

Score: 9

"Awesome!"

submission: Robot K15

date: July 26, 2007

I absolutely LOVE what you've done with my song. It's interesting - I almost feel as if my song was written for this submission. I kind of want to change the title to 'Robot K15' (if only I could).

All my strange little samples and sound effects were used as environment pieces in your movie, and I loved that. It all went in sync.

I'm very glad you chose to use my song and make this film. It's actually given me a bigger appreciation of my song, too, which I wasn't completely sure about.

Keep up the good work, and feel free to use my music in your submissions whenever you please.

Score: 8

"Great."

submission: Stickman Hentai 2

date: April 24, 2007

Awesome, really funny. Great job all around. I didn't mind the overused sounds, music, or style in this one; I think they actually worked to your benefit and perfectly represented what you were trying to do.

The ending DID feel like a bit of a cop out, but it doesn't really matter. I suppose I would have been happier if you just cut the animation short or something.

Fived anywho.

Score: 6

"Decent game."

submission: 60 seconds to nightfall

date: April 23, 2007

HORRIBLE song, though. I know you just looked at whatever was on top of the AP charts at the time, but you have to know that scores in the AP don't mean everything.

The game itself was alright. Nothing spectacular. You could have used some in-game sound (besides that God-awful song), and some collision would have been nice (instead of just overlapping balls).

Worth passing, but barely. If you choose to touch up this game, the first thing I'd recommend is changing the music >_>

Score: 9

"Win."

That was beautiful.

So much beauty made my ass cry tears and my eyes shit.... well ... shit.

In other words,
Fuck me.
