Pixel Grower

"Boring after a while"

submission: Pixel Grower
date: August 6, 2009

Get past level 4 and it becomes boring as fuck. Like watching a screen saver of snow falling. I'm on lvl 9 at 76k and I'm not sure how much longer I'll play it as there is nothing challenging a all. It gets turned on at lvl 4 but after that it's way too easy. Need more pixels going faster. Neat idea though.

Bloons Tower Defense 3

"Excelent game,"

date: October 16, 2008

I've played every single balloon game, counting all 3 tower defense games. It's been taken to the next level very nicely. I like the fact you can change the target on all of the towers from first to last and the extra upgrade are a nice touch. I just made it to level 62 but I knew I wouldn't get past that level since the level starts off with 16 M.O.A.B.!!! Even with 3 fully upgraded super monkeys but that's fine since it's all bonus levels after lvl 50.

I don't know if you can take this to a fourth Tower defense game or not as you can only add so much more. Maybe try a 2d side scroller for the next monkey balloon game.

Bubble Elements Earth

"It's like running up the down escalator."

date: May 10, 2008

Your getting so close to clearing a colour. I need a red, just 1 red, it doesn't come and then bam, another row pops down. Even when I'm down to 2 colours, it's mostly based on luck if you can clear a colour or not depending on what spawns on top.
For some reason you don't spawn any specials, which would be nice to have a bomb come down giving a chance to blow up the tree stump but you only have them in the first 5 minuets. It's not until I clear a level and start the next that I remember there actually is other things besides colour balls.
Oh, and the points system is backwards. Someone that is very skilled or very lucky will clear the level very fast, not popping many balls and will have a low score. Someone that spends 3 hours trying to clear a level that just manages to stay alive will have a very high score when they finally do get lucky and clear the stage. Maybe points can start at 10,000 and you lose 5 points for every shot fired and gain 1 points for every bubble burst or something like that. Basically the longer you play the lower you score should be.

Strategy Defense 3

"okay."

submission: Strategy Defense 3
date: January 23, 2008

I like the fact that you have a huge tech tree with so many advances. The big down side was the auto advanced. Every time the counter runs out the computer spawns a pile of new units and upgrades the towers and the units move so slow (especially with the lag) that by the time they get over to the enemy tower, there are move advanced unit blocking them. So attacking the tower it self was near impossible until the upgrades stopped. A better idea is to spend money to upgrade to the next tech so maybe I could get ahead of the computer tech wise.

I also noticed that the counter seemed to be based on real time. The problem with that is as a game lags down, the time keeps ticking away. The timer should be counting frames instead of seconds so the game play doesn't change based on how good a computer I'm running.

Blood Car 2000!

"Crappy controls"

submission: Blood Car 2000!
date: January 9, 2008

Controls were pure shit and took away from everything. Upgrade the people graphics so I know that they are people before I accidentally hit one and find out that they are people. Graphics for everything else is good.

I liked the destructible environment and enjoyed hitting the porta potty for a shitsplosion.

Fix the controls and add a lot more redrawn people and you get a fun game, but make the goal 80% of the people or something like that as it isn't fun driving around trying to find that last guy standing between some trees that you keep hitting.

Orb Blaster

"Lagy"

submission: Orb Blaster
date: November 28, 2007

It has some potential but for some reason it is laggy as hell and there is nothing on the screen but the gun. you need to eliminate a bunch of off screen and hidden movie clips. For something like this you need to dynamically create the movie clips as you need them and remove them when destroyed. Once it's playable I may go through the whole game.

Monkey Kart

"How about a countdown?"

submission: Monkey Kart
date: November 3, 2007

I see 100% loaded and then the CPU taking off as I sit looking for the keys. How about a 3,2,1, go or something that lets me know the race is about to begin? I also seem to be getting the same banana specials over and over despite all that are available but maybe thats just because I picked easy but if thats true then the CPU shouldn't have them either.

"Woo"

date: October 19, 2007

Portal: The Flash Version

"Fucking awesome!"

date: October 10, 2007

Makes me want to play the non flash portal game! I just spent an hour or so and cleared the whole game. 40 levels, yay cake! Same bugs as Bassoid has below, what a pain in the ass to drop a box where you want it when carrying it. Also on level 36 and another level (I forget which one but probably not relevent), I walked out the exit and walked back into the same room without completing it. Fortunately I was simple to get back to the exit again and I didn't need to redo the entire level but annoying none the less.

I'd love to see more levels and maybe guns that you could blow up! :D

XENO TACTIC

"Great Game"

submission: XENO TACTIC
date: June 24, 2007

I was saving my review for when I beat it but I don't think that will happen. I can't get past lvl 86. At that point in the game the monsters have so much health it takes forever to kill them but when you finally do you get a measly $10 for it. Either the money valuse for a kill need to go up so you can buy more max upgrades or maybe there needs to be a bouns for every red structure. 5% for each maybe? Have 5 max lvl vulcan cannons so they do 500 damage each instead for just 400? Maybe you could have even 1 more upgrade level. In the begining doing 10 damage when they have 100 health is fine. Doing 320 damage when they have 5000 health is fine. Doing 320 damage when they have 60,000 health is just sad.
Also I would prefer that the cannons target what ever has the lowest health in its range. I find guns focus on the highest, strongest targets, while enemies with a sliver of health walk past everything.
Other then that, excellent programing.
I also wonder how far you can make it in your own game?
