NegativeONE's game Reviews on Newgrounds

[Pumpkin Simulator 2003]

I liked it!

That's some nifty use of actionscript. I had a guess of what this might be like, as it loaded, but it was much better than I had expected. The carving is absolutely free. You can carve exactly what you please. The only reason I gave a 7 overall is because there's just not very much content. However, in itself, it's a great idea and flawless execution.

[Found Lost]

Very impressive! Creepy too!

I had no idea what this was prior to playing it, so I was pleasantly surprised when I found out that not only did it touch a seldom-seen genre, it was incredibly well done. It doesn't matter that it's kind of short, because the quality is through the roof. The graphics are incredible, and no corners are cut, particularly with the animations. The music and sound help the creepy atmosphere out so much. I would love to see a follow-up or a sequel or even just something similar. Very nice work.

[MiniPutt 3]

Good, a little glitchy though

I've seen a good few games like this one. I suppose this one is par (no pun intended) with the rest. It could've used a little more variety, or some more engaging graphics. I managed to shoot the ball through the bounds and out into the abyss. Perhaps the engine has yet to be perfected. Overall, a good play.

[Contra Game Workshop]

Simply amazing

Man, if I had this thing when I was a kid, I woulda been one very content child. I've never seen this done before, and I'm glad to see that someone took on the task. The ability to save and load the files is a great touch. You're really doing well to push Flash to its potential with this one. Excellent work.

[Nightmare]

Ah, the long awaited platformer by TSFB

Well, I'd heard about it all through production, and here it finally is :D. Great engine; elements similar to Madness Interactive but improved, even. I'm sure this game will be very successful, and I wish you the best with future projects.

I don't give tens often

But I suppose this deserves it. 3-D Graphics are hard to come by - well done 3-D graphics for that matter. The variety of gameplay was refreshing. I enjoyed the number of weapons available.
You have a fairly consistent theme, which is good. Enjoy your daily feature ;)

[Sinjid Battle Arena]

Lacks freedom, tho quite good overall

Pretty much a fighting engine, although that seems to be all you intended for it. In battle, the combat is aided by several options to choose when you have enough FP, but there really isn't enough strategy involved.
In terms of graphics, it's quite good, although sketchy or awkward at times. There may have been too many palettes. Perhaps you're far too caught up in file size efficiency ;)
If this is the fighting engine for a full-blown rpg that is on its way, than my rpg (in mid-production) has some serious competition. As a team of four against a solo artist, you'll probably win the race, in terms of time.

[FELIX.GAME]

Fun, but hard to play

Everything was done quite well. There were a couple of programming bugs, but that's to be expected. The art was top-shape, sound was a little lacking. Overall quite good, despite being short. The engine should perhaps have been put to more use. The only revision I would suggest for the engine would be to keep Felix in the middle of the screen at all times. Good work, I hope to see more from you.

[Madness interactive]

Absolutely Brilliant, despite a few small flaws

The long-awaited Madness game, finally released. Expecting much less, I was blown away by the innovative system of combat and noteably insane amount of work put in by both authors. My only serious problem was the gun control. The player's arm seemed to behave in mysterious ways. Aiming was often a difficult ordeal.
Great depth with the cheats and challenges and all that. I am impressed to no end. I wish I had been the one lucky enough to get to program the Madness game ;)

[ICW - Backyard Brawl]

Good use of an almost untouched idea

The sorta good quality work I'd expect from AngryBinary. I liked the characters and art, obviously good programming - I know how hard AI can be. The opponent AI was pretty flawless. I sometimes found them attacking the wrong direction for no reason I can guess, but other than that it's rock solid. A nice release on the way to Spindle 2. Good luck with your endeavours.
