"Fun!"

submission: - Music in Motion -

date: May 15, 2009

Simple graphics, and although the first two levels had pretty basic ones, the 3rd and 4th levels looked pretty cool. Nice neon colors, very fun to play, and I loved how every level had a different gameplay method. The physics were pretty well done. However, it would have been nice if there were something like a difficulty setting, such as Easy being +3 lives after every level, Medium being +2 lives after every level, Hard being +1 life after every battle. It would have made many more possibilities for medals. Also, despite the fact you said the game is tough, I beat it on my second try, and even on the first I got to the final boss. Still, very fun game, great music, okay graphics, extremely stylish, although not very funny or violent, it was still a great play!

Score: 10

"Very Fun!!"

submission: The Arrow Of Time

date: May 14, 2009

HELPFUL FOR THE AUTHOR:
Graphics: Very well done! Cool aircraft, nice explosions and especially the lightning!
Sound: Nice quality, the game music doesn't get old, although the menu music does a little.
Violence/Humor: Average, nothing special, but nothing to stress about, either. These categories are mainly reserved for movies, anyway.
Style: Fun, and in good taste. Cool layout of different elements, just about perfect.
Interactivity: VERY fun! I love the arrow types, and how there were strategic combinations and such. The Fortress and Combo upgrades were a bit pointless, I only felt myself needing them in about 2 or 3 battles, and even then I only used the shield or multiple turrets. As for the gameplay, very good, although it was annoying to have to wait for the reload circulation when the game was lagging a lot.

HELPFUL FOR THE PLAYERS:
The first upgrade you should go for is the Lightning Arrow. Get it fully upgraded, perhaps with an alternative arrow just for the time being. After that, get the Homing Arrow and combine the two. This is a great beginner's start. But then replace Lightning with a fully-upgraded Explosive Arrow. This is the best combination for the vast majority of the entire game! For a few select challenge battles, I like to go berserk with Explosive+Lightning Arrows, which are the most offensive. I like to think of the Explosive+Homing as being more strategic, though. When going dinosaur hunting, I strongly suggest Time Arrow+Helium Arrow. This way, by shooting a dinosaur twice, you've eliminated the chance of them falling offscreen. Don't do this for the flying dinosaur, though. For the really tough battles, the Bubble upgrade is probably the only one you'll need, although you'll probably want multiple turrets if you want to go for Quickdraw. And don't ask me why I've put this at the end of the walkthrough, since I probably should have mentioned it first. I'll explain it in very simple steps. When upgrading with at least enough money to buy a Fortress Upgrade:
> Click an Arrow Upgrade
> Click the next level for it, but don't click the checkmark. Just leave the confirmation window open.
> Click the Fortress Upgrade panel to bring it up.
> Buy affordable Fortress Upgrade of your choice.
> Go back to the main upgrade panel. The confirmation box for the Arrow Upgrade should still be up.
> Go ahead and buy it. Not only are you getting more than your money's worth, but you might even be able to steal some money in addition to the upgrade!
NOTE: This also works for Combo Upgrades.

"Awesome!"

submission: Drunken Stick

I've gotta say, you could be the next Terkoiz! Very smooth animation, great sound effects, nice background, great physics (he really looked like he was drunk), and absolutely hilarious! Epic win!

Score: 9

"Another?! :D"

submission: Pencilmation #3

date: May 13, 2009

I must say, the music is a bit more annoying, and the animation isn't quite as smooth, but I'm sure you're just out of practice or something. I'm happy you've decided to continue the series, although I miss the guy from the first two :(

Score: 10

"Funny"

submission: Meet the Krinkels

date: May 12, 2009

Great graphics... I had no idea of what you were capable of via computer graphics, never seen realism like that from you before! Fun audio, great animation, very funny alternate Madness episodes. It was a bit short though. And why'd you rate it for nudity?

Score: 10

"Instant Classic"

submission: The Unpresented

date: May 12, 2009

Very nice animation, as always! That's about all there is to say. Some very nice graphics, despite the fact that stick figures were used, very cool sword sounds, and especially the stalactite-sword.

Also, what did you mean when you said you'll miss Terkoiz?! What happened to him?!

Score: 8

Two points off because it was absolutely terrible, but I'll give you 8 for the entertainment value.

"AWESOME DUDE!!"

submission: Spewer

date: May 6, 2009

> Graphics: Simple but good.
> Sound: Very catchy music, lots of subtle sound effects that really wrap up the game.
> Violence: Nothing excessive, but a nice little blood effect when he died. Got kind of annoying though, especially watching the same, slow animation, followed by the slow descending and ascending of the retry panel.
> Humor: It was kind of odd that you were puking your way through all of the levels, which was a tad funny, ditto the description. It got old after a while, though, but not in the way that it got bad... I just kind of forgot that all the liquid was puke :P
> Style: Very nice interface, cool art style, great background and background animations. Pretty much perfect.
> Interactivity: Eli, you are a legend. I sure hope you get some publicity from this game. Very nice liquid physics, great types of puke, great puzzler, but also challenges reflexes. Some of the levels are a bit more annoying than hard, but the majority are just awesome! I was tearing my hair out through some of them :D Good physics, good movement, I would have preferred if he could jump higher or lower depending on how long you held down the W key, but other than that, great controls, too. The Crux had me stumped for a while, but after a while I got through that, and the rest too! An exercise for the brain and the fingers! The level editor was cool, although I don't have the brains to make a good one :P I especially liked that you could make your levels as complex as all of the other ones, and that the creation interface was so smooth and simple. A couple levels, though, such as Precautions, were a little luck-based. Still, very nicely done!

STEPS FORWARD:
I'd say the only thing that could make this better would be something like some kind of multiplayer arena, although you'd probably have to talk to Jiggmin if you wanted something like that. Maybe bigger levels, shown with a VCam. The coolest would be if you could race and kill each other with acid and stuff. That would be pretty sick.

This was an absolute joy to play, I really wish it could have been a wee bit longer, and maybe had some medals like the following:
Lazy: Finish a level without taking any steps.
Fatass: Finish a level, jumping only ___ times. (0-1, maybe?)
Conservative: Finish a level with ____% of your puke left (maybe a couple levels would be ineligible for players to win the medal on.

Score: 3

"God that was Stupid"

submission: What Element are you

date: May 3, 2009

The graphics were nonexistent. Just a circle graphic to start and stop the music, and some element icons ripped from the internet. The questions are rather vague and difficult to answer, I found myself right-clicking and selecting Forward to skip the question about half of the time. The song is rather obnoxious, too. This needs heavy work. Maybe quiz games just aren't your thing.

Score: 4

"FAIL"

submission: Da Pink Knight

date: May 1, 2009

Graphics are good, so is the sound. That's about it. I'm going to be critical and list all of the things that are wrong with this game:
- You move very slowly. Not only does it lag, but the player is just scripted to move very slowly.
- The game has a simple strategy at the beginning; move up and down to avoid the big smasher. The thing is, if he even starts charging up that attack, it almost always hits. Even if you manage to get in there and flank him a couple times, he just counterattacks and blasts you anyway!
- The medals don't work. I was cheated out of a MARYPOPPINZ.
- Later in the game, if you get knocked down, he just uses his saw attack on you. You can dodge it sometimes, but sometimes it's impossible.
- Every time you get dizzy, the boss starts repairing itself and you get an icon of someone pushing a button. It doesn't tell you which button, and although generic button mashing seems to work, I've accidentally restarted the game about 3 times because of it.
- You can lose health without your shield running out.
- It's ridiculous to have a shield feature when you can't even block any of the attacks (save the cannon).

Overall, this is an extremely infuriating game, and there's nothing redeeming about it.

Readers, try jumping and attacking him. It's the only way to get a lot of damage, even though he'll just counterattack as soon as you land.
