penguin100's game Reviews on Newgrounds

[Robot Planet]

A really good work. It's simple but it accomplishes its goal. This game does what a lot don't. It may be basic but its doing the basics very well which is where every game creator should start.

[Vector Rush]

Not bad...

It was pretty good. The music in particular was relevant and a nice touch but there were some gameplay issues. I found the unresponsive and slow movemont of whatever it is your flying a little annoying especially when you start going really fast. There were times when the bars were so packed together that it was impossible to pass at faster speeds. Im assuming this game is about reflexes and skill but there were times when it was based on pure luck because of the ever increasing concentration of the bars and speed. This could have been easily fixed if the control was faster and more responsive. The power rings made the game more challenging but if you picked up two or more quickly it paractically blinds you. Going as fast as you are after about two minutes i actually tried to avoid them because that fraction of a second you cant see can really make a difference. Also the game was fun for a little while but the repetitive look of the game made it get boring really fast. I had fun playing it but just not for long.

[One Chance]

Pretty good

The game had very simple retro design. It could have used a little more detail but the music helped make it more meaningful. Although many people said the story was boring or had too many plot holes I thought it had a certain charm to it. Maybe it was the ambiance or the presentation but I liked it. I'm kind of a fan of "end of the world" themed stories so that got u some extra points. Not making it replay able was a little frustrating but that was an easy fix. I just played the game on my googlechrome browser using the incognito setting which kept the game from saving any information on to my computer so I can play it as many times as i want though two times was plenty. (Just a hint for anyone who wants to play the game more than once)

[Achievement Unlocked 2]

Stuck???

All i can do is take everyones word for it that this game is good because after i get past the hot coffee to the cold coffee i cant do anything. It says to just close the window but there is nothing to click and i already tried closing the browser and reopening it out of frustration and that didnt even word so im stuck. I dont know if i somehow permanently glitched the game or what but it just isnt working for me at all. If theres something missing it would be really helpful if a fellow reviewer would tell me what the hell im supposed to do so i can actually have something to review.

[Tower of Heaven]

Good story, good controls but...

this game is fucking bull shit hard. I played level 9 like 30+ fucking times before i beat it and i realized that after playing level 10 about half that i pretty much said fuck this and gave up. The story was good but its just not worth the hardships to finish it. So, good story, good controls, and i give up. Check points would have made this game a little easier and a little more tolerable. It would have made the difference between a little frustrated and beyond frustrated. Also the art could have used a little more colors other than puke green and gonorrhea yellow. A game that will take most people at least a half hour to beat should be a little nicer on the eyes. My choice of words may be a little harsh but thats just because im venting out my frustration. Dont take it personally. Fucking hard ass game!!!!

[Zombie Apocalypse Quiz]

74%

My only problem with it was that some of the questions didn't have answers i would actually do. I understand that there can only be so many scenarios though so i just picked the best answer and moved on. But because of that i think i have a much better chance than what the test predicted. 85% sounds better. of course this is only speculation lol. ive watched a lot of zombie movies and i have a handgun in my house with tons of ammo. but if the zombies were the ones from 28 days later that would suck. those zombies are definitely the super human kind. if armed soilders couldnt stand up to those fuckers then few average citizens would ever stand a chance. this test was really good and actually pretty hard to get a perfect score on. i tried a few different combinations and only managed to get a score of 85. if a hundred percent is possible in this test then i dont have the patients to find out lol. good work.

[Homerun in Berzerk Land]

Déjà vu...

Toss the Turtle all over again. Don't get me wrong though I used up some time playing this game so you must have done something right. A turn off for me though was the fact that the game is giving you the option to buy your way to the top. Usually when this option is given the game play is effected and this game is no acception. To get all the gems required to get certain items in the game is for the most part impossible unless of course if i were to play this game for much longer than i would ever want to. I know this is done on purpose to get people to buy buy buy. I understand people like to get paid for their works of art and they have that right but overall the game suffered for it.

[I wanna be the flash game]

Bad...just...bad.

No plot, unrealistic challenges (random flying roof, falling clouds, spikes jutting out of obscure surfaces), obnoxious trophies that only the trophy obsessed could love.
No real creativity. You basically made a game that requires you to jump over and under hurdles with no real incentive what so ever. I couldn't find anything to make up for these very blatant problems, but as you said these "problems" were apparently created on purpose. (Just so you know i'm paying attention) Its a good first try and the challenge factor is definitely there but the game needs some work. "Trial and error" games can be done well it just takes practice. I hope your next "trial" doesn't end in "error."

[Toxie-Radd]

In andvance i apologize...

First i would like to say that this game was entertaining at first. The boss fights in every level made it interesting because they were a part of the story and you got a new weapon for killing each of them but there was one problem... WHAT THE F*CK WERE YOU THINKING WHEN YOU MADE THOSE TWENTY WAVES OF THE MOST BORING GAMEPLAY IMAGINABLE. The zombies weren't very well animated that WAS forgivable, the upgrade system definitely needed some polish but that WAS forgivable, and the dialog was cheesy and uninteresting to say the least but that WAS forgivable. Now all these things were problems that were not much of and issue until you smashed i had to endure 20 waves of those problems over and over and over again. I should should shoot myself in the head for even enduring it as long as i did. As a final note i didn't finish the game and i hope my explanation helped you understand why. You can call me an ass for being honest but i really think i'm speaking for everyone when i say this game got really, really BOOORING.

[When Pigs Fly]

A bit Irritating...

Don't get me wrong this is a very good game. Its creative and i really like the old school style but the controls were frustrating. Personally i think having the up arrow be used for flying instead because my left hand isn't as coordinated as my right and since this game is so touchy you need all the control you can get. The music was very repetitive. You should of had more songs. I like how you added the different modes at the end. I thought that was a nice touch but once is more than enough for me thank you. That squealing was driving me crazy.
One last thing. Why the hell couldn't the pig just walk anymore. Did he somehow lose his ability to walk when he grew wings lol. Hopefully pigs never do learn to fly because you can be sure that there will be a shortage of bacon and a surplus of insanity.
