Really bland....

BBS hate aside, this really is a bad game. Aside from the music, there is no sound whatsoever. No clicks, no booms, nada. This adds to the already boring game play which is the typical "shoot the targets" fare.

If you were make another game of this kind, I suggest adding sound effects and add some other game modes. Perhaps something that involves moving targets or something. Anything to make it stand out from the hundreds of "shoot the target" games out there. Best of luck.

whatever, thanks..

Pretty fun game...

The visuals need work though and it would have been nice to have more than one song playing. Speaking of music, it didn't load until about 30 seconds in. As for the gameplay itself, it was pretty fun and the UFO had fairly tight controls. I noticed that in Asteroid Rain, the score doesn't register until the asteroid is well into the ground, so there is a 2 to 3 second delay in score. The visuals aren't bad its just that they are pretty bland, as if it were made in Powerpoint. Not expecting super flashy menus or anything, just to spice it up a bit.

Despite the flaws, this is a very fun game with loads of potential. If you plan on making another game of this type, just keep the gameplay, add some flashiness and you're set. Peace out, good sir.

Thanks for the review :)
I'm not sure about the music, i've found that myself, i'll look in to it though.
Thankyou much. -Matt :D-

Not that good, man.

For starters, there is no sound in this flash game, not even a click or ring or anything. Any flash game without sound is going to come across as lazy or just dull (unless it is a stylistic choice). Secondly, the visuals are really dull, a white backdrop with a bunch of green buttons is not going to cut it. That combined with the lack of sound really brings this game down. I have a big feeling that you are either imitating or parodying The Impossible Quiz because the questions (living up to the title) are straight up dumb. Not even funny dumb, just dumb.

Seeing as how this is your first quiz game, here's a tip. Unless you think you can really knock it out of the park, don't make an "Impossible Quiz" like game. I have seen so many flashes of this kind that try to emulate its style and the humor and they all just fall flat on its face (which unfortunately happened here). That said, if you plan on making another quiz, try adding some flashiness to it, some transitions and some music would be nice. Also, you got to add some style to the menu, white backgrounds is a big red flag when it comes to flash games.

Best of luck with any future flash projects you may have, chief.

umm... actually the questions there are all facts... and im sorry I didnt add any music , I cant test it because my speaker is broken :) sorry ... thank you for reviewing! I would try to make a better one :)

No crash on my end but I must be missing something

Okay, so the goal of this game is to take stock from the various rooms using the colored servant guys. A cool idea but where's the challenge in it? Sure getting a better score is a challenge (got 128% by the way, don't know whether that's good or bad) but there really is no way to lose at the game. You have an unlimited amount of moves, there is no time limit, and no way for your servants to die. Speaking of the servants, it would have been nice to have time pass by itself instead of having to press a button for them to claim the labs.

On the technical side of things, it definitely would have been nice to have some sound or music in the game, seeing as how moving the guys got a bit boring after a while and having some music would have helped. Personally, I thought the scoring system was a bit overcomplicated, a simple "you completed game in X amount of seconds" would have done it instead of the whole percentage thing.

This game had an interesting concept but maybe I completely looked over something because it simply was not challenging at all and over time playing it felt more of a chore instead of a game. Best of luck on whatever flash projects you have in the future. Jesus Christ, this review is long!

GigaClon responds:

the percent is the amount of time you took compared to if you explored the rooms one by one by yourself( no bonuses)

Im no good with music or sound so I left them out. This was mainly because I play most flash games with the sound turned off.

The game plays is supposed to be score based rather than completion based.

SCREEEECHHH!!! BOOOOMMM!!....

....was the sounds that I heard every 5 seconds.

It was an alright effort but, sorry man, this game isn't that good. The game itself just starts, it would have been nice to have some instructions or something. As for the gameplay itself, the car drove like it was on ice and it was impossible to make any form of sharp turn. On top of that, if the car hits the curb, you have to start over, this plus the moving cars and people make for a frustrating game. So let's just say that a masochist like myself decides to ride it out (hell, I'm a sucker for "Born to be Wild"), so I make it to the building and a cutscene plays to get to a car. Once I get to the green arrow, it just blacks out. Look, chief. I know that this is a beta but at least put some type of message when it ends. This game needs a lot of work, there is room for improvement but this needs plenty of it. Best of luck.

you can drive like a maniac on the next levels we are making

I loved it!

This is an all-around awesome game, chief. I seriously loved everything about it (I may be really biased because I LOVE platformers). One thing though, I don't know if it was intended or if it was a glitch but with careful precision, you can actually jump off of the moving bowling balls. Regardless, I will call this technique "Ballshining" and I will start the competitive Applez scene.

hellfang3 responds:

Haha, yes, the 'ballshining' is intentional. You actually have to get pretty good at it when you get to some of the later levels :D

Uhhh....

Well, it's an okay first game, it could be much worse but it isn't really good either. I think my beef with this flash is that it was too simple and bare-bones. No preloader, no menu, it just takes you straight to shooting the invaders. Also, aside from the awesome music, you really need to put in some sounds for the shooter, a simple *pew* would suffice. It also lacked some variety, at least put some different backgrounds and enemies in there, chief. This is a nice first step and if you plan to make more in the future, then best of luck to you. Peace out, good sir.

You think it's fictional? Mystical? Maybe. Spiritual. Hero who appears in you to clear your view when you're too crazy!
