PhoenixGodwin's game Reviews on Newgrounds

[Alliant DotC]

Great Game! Only...

After a little bit of game time it started glitching up on me. My blue selection square thingies at first would not disappear, and then they would just stop working, and then I lost the ability to command my troops. I could select them (with my glitchy selection thingies), but I couldn't make them move or anything.

I really enjoyed what I played, and I hope this gets fixed.

4/5

[Beauty Pool]

Nothing new here, plus a bit of deception?

While this is admittedly a decent pool sim (though there are better), I have to say I am slightly perplexed.

Is this rated "M" strictly to attract more viewers? If you give people pornographic hopes only to present them with a very safe for work pool sim, I'm sure it's only going to serve in pissing them off.

Deception aside, The sim is decent. The AI is poor, and there is no real sense of accomplishment given that the game just restarts after every match.

I suggest if nothing else, that you take what you have here and expand on it.

WebCode responds:

Hi, thanks for the review, i rated it "M" just because of the title screen really, i wasn't too sure if to or not, so played it safe.

[We Are Legend:Arockalypse]

No Way!

Freakin' amazing. Zombies? Rocking out? BOTH?!That's freaking insae man, I loved the introduction to. It's a perfect concept, only thing is, it's kind of hard. However, I love it anyway just for the principle of it!

5'd!

Phoenix, stick with it, baby. I know you don't want to give Training Wheels a try, but I'm telling you, it's there for that very reason. Use your righteous power if you get overwhelmed, and visit the outfitters to get better equipment. Thanks for the review, I'm stoked that you liked it.

[Azul Baronis]

holy crap!

This game is amazing! It's so incredibly put together. the music, the gamepla, the graphics, the tutorials, the text (radio and awards). Haha, I laughed really hard at 'qaudrape', but then I saw a destroyer and got right down to business again. Really, this is incredible, and I'm actually thanking you for making it. It's just that fun to play.

5'd (for the rest of the week!)

AndrewMartin responds:

Haha, i love it when people just get what i was trying to do with a game straight away. Tis gratifying =]

Thanks for the review, and thanks for the vote, it's appreciated =]

[Black Epoch]

argh!

ok, dont get me wrong, GREAT idea, GREAT graphics, but gameplay? It's not there. You can't shhot digonally without walking (seriously hindering your ability to fight the first boss), the controls are confusing and lacking, it's just not fun to play. Fix it, make it more plaable, I know it can be a great game, but at the moment, it just isn't worth anybodies time.

great try though, I see what you were trying to do!

zannebrain responds:

Hold "e" before the game loads, right after you hit play. in honor of Contra, you'll get thirty lives(it won't display in the HUD). Keep playing it, the first boss is a tricky one.

[Alt Up]

weird

I usually hate dress up games (due to lameness of the very genre), but for some reason I ffelt the urge to actually use this one...

are you hypnotizing your viewers?

actually, I think its the style and simplicity of the character that made me actually stick around for this one, the cool music didnt hurt either.

Great ob man! This one is 5'd whereas most dressup games are only 2'd or 3'd

Basszilla responds:

5?

Thanks o.o

I dunno, my last dressup got pretty good reviews too. I just try and keep is slick, smooth ad have enough items to keep you interested

[Tetris Ultimate]

egh

While I will say it IS one of, if not the best, Tetris clone on NG. The music selection is the best part to it I think. However, although you have a fast drop, you dont have a rush rop, making waiting for the peace to finally gret to the bottom very annoying.

I also like being able to choose my own levels....

heh, but yeah, you can do it better, just make a few changes. But remember, as I said, this is probaby the best clone on NG. Personally I am a Tetris master ( I start on level 8 for leisure, and level 12 if I want a challenge on the real tetris), so I guess maybe it takes alot to impress me on this subject.

Seandadj responds:

haha im glad i impressed the tetris master lol not every day you find an old school gamer like yourself, thanks for the great comment i might add those things in an update too :P

[Red Baron]

Great Game!!!

The baddass-ness of the boss with the scythe was awesome.

On another note, when I first saw those chickens, I looked at them, than to the battle axe I held in my hand, than I looked back at them, and could not help but to let out my war cry of: "McNUGGET TIME!!!!!"

haha

MindChamber responds:

HAhahahha

thats awesome!

[Nightmare B4 Halloween VG]

Awesome!

Normally I don't like these kind of things, but this was great. The subtlety of some of the differences was challenging, and the editing that was done on the images was impressive due to the fact that you can't really tell what is fake or not. Great job, I am impressed. Happy Halloween!

SecretAgentRege responds:

Thanks for the review! It's amazing what you can end up with given a few hours and Photoshop. Happy Halloween!
