[Dodge 3.0]

Nice job

This was an interesting game you made. The entry of both name/password may be slightly redundant however.

Incidentally, if you want to expand on the game (it's a bit of work) but I think it will be worth it.

Have levels to the game.
Level 1, you're a frog avoiding cars a la Frogger.
Level 2, you're a spaceship avoiding meteors.
Level 3, you're a Ninja avoiding snakes,
etc.

So each time a level is passed the player is rewarded with new graphics and new background music to each level.

That's what us players like to see anyways, is diversity, surprises, and that which piques our curiosity to play more. :)

[Kick King 1.0]

Not bad ..

While I dearly despise looking at stick figures except for a named few like XiaoXiao, you did a great job on this game. Needs more elements to it, but the controls were tight and everything worked well.

Good luck on your ratings !

[Pico 1.5 Demo]

Well ..

The music is a bit repetitive, write me if you need some longer Mp3s.

The story ? Well, while it's all good and fun to say you don't like school and to blow away the teacher with a rifle body parts flying everywhere, that just teaches negative values. Including the girl in the hallway who wanted you to shoot her.

You are a VERY good artist for SWF but this story, I found pretty offensive.

Sorry. :)

What RPGs can you make that have more humor and less violence ?

[SpongeBob SquarePants V2]

Very Nice ...

I'm not really a SpongeBob SquarePants fan, but you did a good job on this. Maybe something a bit more kinky and involving anime girls in the future would get a higher rating from me. :)

[Punched Out!!!]

Not good ..

Looks an AWFUL lot like Punchout for the NES.
I have a NES emulator. Let's see some original games. :)

[Solid Soldier]

Not good ..

Jamus, definitely not one of your better works.
I was VERY responsive on level 2, didn't stop once except to shoot baddies and the timer still ran out. There is a level after 2, right ? :)

Graphics really didn't look good. Reminds me of some pretty low-class shooters ..

Your finest achievements are still:
Curse Of The Dark Prophecy Alpha 2
Gunblaze (the first one minus the JPEG trash).

Psst .. hey, show a bit of panties (g'wan!) for the girls you rescue in Gunblaze for your updated versions ! ;)

[GunBlaze: Video Shooter]

ERROR

Access violation at address 00B969B1 in module 'flash.ocx' Read of address 02B44000.

It's a consecutive error, it shows up every time after the 5th target.

First time I've seen an error in FLASH.
I'm running a 2.0ghz WinXP IExplorer v6.0.2800.

The JPEG-trash is pretty messy to get your 3-D effects. Please use VECTORS in future shooters. Thanks. :)

[GunBlaze]

Babes & Bullets ..

It just doesn't get any better than this.

Little word though, it REALLY should not take 12+ bullets to bring down one unarmored person. If you hit in vitals *ouch* or head or on the chest that should bring them down instantly.

Maybe make the gun-site RED so it's easier to see.

NICE JOB on view-zoom-lens for when you "win" to gape at the girl.. :)
This is reminiscent of some of those Arcade Games that never made it back from Japan.

EXCELLENT WORK.

[Flash DDR (All Your Base)]

Good ..

Those arrows fly up just a nice too fast though.
Start at half speed. Sure that's ridiculously slow but you build up to normal and then high speed. Save the double-arrow key combos for difficult levels.

THANK YOU for not requiring the arrow to be dead-set-on-the-pixel like most reaction games are to get a combo.

Also, LOSE the negative voice kibitzer. I already have my G/F telling me when I was screwing up playing this game and don't need another voice to add to it. :)
