PartiBoy's game Reviews on Newgrounds

I cant be the only one getting tired of these...

Granted you want to learn to make a game. Granted theres a place to start. Appreciate you put your time and effort into this. BUT you didn't make it...

Please now take what you've learnt from this and learn a little Actionscript

Well i did make it, but i know what you mean. Although first of all, that costs like $700, And you still can code your own peices on playcrafter. Rate the game for what it is, no what its made of.

You know me dude...

You know who it is mark, anyway yeah constructive comments.
Well, its a good format and i respect the way it was scripted must have taken a good long while. However, the visuals were great, top notch infact, apart from the crazy ass flying robot bulldozers...yeah they looked out of place and abit too crappy american horror movie than sci fi. Its abit tricky to get into aswel i found, not particular the sort of game that needs keyboard control i reckon. But with mouse control it would be too easy...but it got repetitive mostly i found i had to scroll from one bottom corner of the screen to the opposite side to shoot another robot. Also the enemies tend to approach too fast, once they are past that little square theres no hope, especially if your doing as i said and moving that small viewfinder from one edge to the other...

Anyway thats just me being heavily critical - including the huge ZERO for humour and a lower score for that god awful repetive typical bloody sci fi music everyone seems so enthralled with these days. Its better than i could do and its made very well with lots of cool interesting features including the shop. Maybe you should try another webcam game where you use your fingers to kill the flying robot bulldozers...but i digress.

8 / 10 and i'll see you in Sound lecture tomorrow

Hey, thanks for reviewing. There's a few reasons I did keyboard control over mouse, the big one being that because of the 3D effects the game would have lagged a hell of a lot with mouse movement, probably unplayable for most people. With practice it's not too hard to hit most enemies before they go past the point of no return, especially if you can get good enough to use the ctrl key to move the cursor faster. I really like the music, I think the reason everyone uses it though is because of the lack of copyright restrictions the Audio portal has. But knowing that not everyone likes whatever music I'd choose it's easy enough to turn off the sound and put on some Vandals or something. Flying Robot Bulldozer Cam Crushing coming to the NG portal soon...

Hey Hey Hey

Hey dude its me, speaking as one of the people who actually know you AND probably played this game first (huzah). It isnt half a bad game, thoroughly enjoyed it. Music could have been better (not a big fan of dance / pop / trane - whatever it was). But was good fun to constantly shoot ghosts in the face, its got depth which is rarely seen in the elitest drivel found here lately, and atleast its not another base defending game...Well done!

ChromeShark responds:

Not used to responding to people I know...so I'm just gonna be like I would with any reviewer...

Thanks for the review. The music was chosen to fit the gameplay, and being from the NG portal I don't have to worry about copyright and things. You can turn it off from the options or right-click menu. I'm glad you liked the game.

So ... see you tomorrow.
