[A Chain Reaction Game v.3]

Very nice!

Such an addictive game!

--Graphics/Animation--
The graphics were very good, I liked how you could choose your own graphic set.
The animation was very smooth, there was no choppyness or glitching...
--Story/Concept--
The idea is very original and you excecuted the theme and made the game work with no probs.
--Sound--
The music was very good!

Overall, Very good!

[Ultra Sprite Tutorial]

Very nice!

A great sprite tutorial!

--Graphics/Animation--
The graphics very good for a tutorial! The text had a pixely feel to it and the Running next and back buttons were neat.
--Story/Concept--
Although sprite tutorials have been done many times, you made all th otheres look shit. :P
--Audio--
The music was very nice, it was perfectly suited with the theme of the tutorial.
--Next time--
Show how to tween your sprites.
Show different sprites in stead of just running, show jumping and attacking. Etc.
In the links, make them clickable or selectable, so we can copy and paste the links.

Overall, you done a very good job, I hope you liked my review and I hope you respond ;)

FidioProductions responds:

Thanks, mate!

About the next time things:
1. I'll think about showing people how to tween but I'm sure they already know as it's probable the most basic thing in flash... =UPDATED=

2. I don't think showing different sprites is required it's just supposed to be an example.

3. I'll update that within the next 20 minutes actually. =UPDATED=

[GTFTN1 - Scanlines]

A very nice tutorial

A very nice tutorial:

Pros:
-Imformative.
-Good layout. The colours suited very well with the theme of tutorial.
-I had fun watching it.
-A good idea of a starting tutorial, it will be very helpful to newbs who have not much skill
-The fading out of the text at the start menu was neat.

Could be changed:
-Screen shots need the relevant parts shaded or circled.
-Add more examples of Scanlines.
-Show how scanlines could be used and add more examples.

Overall, very nice!

[Dress Our King!]

Fun Dress up game!

A fun dress-up game overall, here is my review :P....

Good things:
-Nice music
-Great theme! Hail the King! SBC!
-A good selection of music
-Sweet Backgrounds
-Amazing Graphics.

You could Change:
-Make StrawberryClock Bigger, There was lots to choos from, but not much room to place the items

-The screen was a bit messy, maybe next time, make roll over menu's so it is easy access, or even add some tabs.

-Add some more cursors :P < Not Necessary, just fun to have more cursors :P

-Less songs, I found that with all that unnecessary song space taken up, the game lagged a liitle :|

Hopefully you learn alot from this review and hopefully you respond ;) I look forward to more from you.

ThaDj responds:

Since I've already planned to create a fourth SBC for next year, I've thought of adding a "Size up/down" feature, I'll definitely add it now.

A menu making categories of items visible/invisible might be good as well.

Cursor? Never thought of that - Thanks for the idea... Yoink! :D

I explained the lag problem in the response underneath (You reviewed before I responded, so I'm not blaming you :).) The size shouldn't be affected much by the songs, as they are loops, except for the song by ParagonX9.

Thanks for the review, and to the review request club for by now four reviews, which all really helped a lot!

[MadnessAnimationTutorial]

Very nice!

A very nice tutorial! A very nice layout, the font was easy to read, and the colour of the text made the text easy on the eyes. The tutorial Explained everything very nicely, it included examples which always helps the reader. Overall, I can't wait for more from you :P

volt-light responds:

Hey, thanks!

[GapFinder]

Fun!

Has got: Good graphics and animation, a good concept and the concept is well excecuted. The game and plot are both very unique, I havn't seen a game like tis before.

Needs: A scoring system. Different cursors othere than a square, when you get to a level, you unlock it. The levels need to get longer.

Overall, a fun game, but needs work ;)

[Dig Land]

Nice!

Challenging yet fun! A very good concept for a great game! It took a while before I figured it out eventualy, I couldn't find any instructions so I had to figure it out by myself. That would be something to work on. The game was fun overall and I can't wait for more from you :P

[Newgrounds Rumble]

Fun.

A challenging fighting game.

Pros: Great Graphics. Great Animation. A good story and some sweet characters. The Attacks were sweet and the game had a Adventure game feel to it.

Cons: The music got really annoying and the Game got repetetive. I found that the game was fun but too hard. There needed to be goals, or, something to work yourself to.

[Super Duper Maze Game]

You can Cheat!

The game would be so much better if you put in some actionscript that stopped cheating :P Look up some tutorials and you will eventually find anti-cheating AS.
The maze was nicely set out and the music was sweet..The dancing stickman was amusing, I can't wait for more from you :P

[Sumoball 2]

Addictive!

A really nice game with nice visuals and audio, the song was perfectly suited with the plot. If you make a sequel maybe add some obstacles and maybe some power-ups. You could even add a survival mode where when you knock out an opponent more come in to knock you out? Great game anyways :)
