darkest0's game Reviews on Newgrounds

[It Came From Outer Space]

I like this game, it really catches the metal slug feel: freaking hard to beat!

Also about the controls: if you want a layout that "works" (this still depends on the player, although I found this layout the best working one, and expect others to agree with this) awsd for movement, arrows for aiming and space for shooting.

Thanks for the compliment!

I'll be sure to toss your suggested layout onto the Author's Comment.

[One Arrow (Ludum Dare 28)]

Well, I really liked the game, but it's a bit low with getting harder.
But you could really turn it into something more, by adding achievements
(double kill for example 1 arrow, two monsters something like that) and upgrades.

If you would do that, it would turn from a good time waster, to a great time waster :) .

[POOPER]

It was ok, only irritating that you had to smash the spacebar all the people around me went "WTF?!" cuz I nearly bashed my spacebar of... but it is a fun game.

[Segway of the Dead]

Great game! it only takes so freaking long to beat it. (just leave it on the starting speed, and you will just roll through the levels after which you get points to upgrade your gear. THEN you can splash the zombies)

[Nemesis]

The game was alright, but felt more like a rip off from tankman: the battle, and the battles weren't interesting enough to keep the attention, which wouldn't be a problem IF there was a storyline. So it's a ok game, but that's it.

[Clash Of The Race]

Right..... guess what? it's the same fucking engine but this time NOT with a different graphic set. Are you really that lazy? or are you just trying to get as much haters as possible? What is going wrong here? isn't it clear to you that the same engine with different graphics (not even the case with this version) is not a different game? The first games were great I give you that, but nowadays your just posting the same stuff over and over again. I really don't like to act and come across like an asshole but this is just crap.

to sum it up:
- graphics: 0
- game play: 0 (same engine, so you actually didn't work to make it better)

[Kill those Ponies!]

I totally agree with this game! FUC*ING ponies!

[Human evolution]

fun game, but this needs CHECKPOINTS. like totally. and maybe something that you can control your own speed, it kinda get hard in the beginning (the obstacles are a bit to close to each other, especially if you have full speed& jump)

[Warrior Editor]

meh, this needs WAY more stuff, like WAYYYY MORRRRE

[Nan Creatures Extended]

Well, it's maybe an extended version, but surely not an improved version. the only thing that has happened is the adding of more monsters, a (I believe) improvement in how fluent the game is (although not that much, if it is even there).

Apart from that, there didn't change that much. And there is one incredible annoying thing about which people have complained in the old version of this game: THE POP-UP SCREEN (the one telling you to log-in) in-between battles. and not just after a few battles, no, every F****** battle has that irritating pop-up screen.

so my conclusion is that due to a lack of improvement this is not worthy of a high score. ( am aware that I can't make anything like this myself, but if I could I would pay more attention to constructive criticism.

The gameplay is fun, the graphics look sweet, but it just feels like a money milk cow to me, even if it isn't meant to be that.
