[BloodBug]

Its really good, but it could use a few things.

All the atats explain themselves. But you need the following:

1. On game over, make an option to contine at a cost of energy credits. If you cant fork the credits, give tech.

2. have an area in the blood bank, to check your accuracy (average enemy's kiled with so so energy points), average amount of hits per 10 or so enemy's, how many of the items floating around are collected, and maby (if you find an approriate formula) your odds of surviving the next round!

3. Show how much money you need to get the next tech.

4. With Upgrade sentenial have another "buy sentenial" option. I may not have had enough money to do it so im unsure.

5. maby have bosses or somthing.

6. Have a sheild recharge upgrade

7. have a large energy capsul, that could give you 50 energy or so. or even a special one time capsule that could give you credits until you get hurt.

8. show a little line or timer until the next energy bank.

9. in the loader, maby have a legend to that the items in the game are, and maby a limited enemy directory.

With those suggestions, maby you could make another vesion. But yeah, the game was perfect, it was tough, fun, playful, had a unique theme, and interest facts. as a matter of fact, all your games have interesting facts.

YOUR USING ALL YOUR ENGINS TWICE!

even three times!

only use them once! because every game you make is just an old one with diffrent pictures!

[Soap Bubble I]

You already made this!

Its not stolen, but you changed the title and re-submitted!

WHY!?!?!?!

[Monster Poolside Sumo]

should have gone through more tests

Problems:
-the hittests were way off
-the game disabled you from going to the next monster
-you could see where it would skip areas

overall, could have used more testing, the scrypts should be re-written and modifyied.

[Alien Hominid]

There are alot of valid arguments

In this game, many people find it too hard, and I agree.
1-there should be a limit to the amount of enemies in each screen
2-every time you get hit, you shouldent need to fly down and restart.
3-when you do get hit, maby you lose all your guns special ability's.
4-you lose a life when
a-your hit and you have nothing special in your gun
b-you have hp
c-you have at least 5 kills

then, you have the controls:
up-jump
down-crawl
left/right-move
enter-fire
put in auto aim, or spreadfire.

ps: this game has good gfx, and really good sound, but I feel I should express therse comments of mine:

in one year, nobody will be talking about the wicked graphics and/or sound in a game, they will be talking about how fun to play that very specific game was.

Its far too easy to make a game impossible, its far BETTER to make a challenge.

Levels should never be repeditive, if you over-use an enemy, or make that enemy too powerful, then people quickly get sick of that enemy, and if they feel its not going to end, they'll never want to try.

Enemy's should never have the same stradedgy used too often.

People dont like being swamped by simple enemy's, the fun goes too fast.

TO ALL

These games are based on somthing, ill give all 1st timers a hint:
When you start on a line of comments, keep on subject, or youll just be put into a losing maze of inevitably wrong awnsers.

[Create-A-Ride]

Gwahaha, .500!

First off, everybody, I may have the high record for the speed thingamabober, I got the best score it said. (.500), maby it was luck, I dunno.
To the review: Dont ask why I put voilence to 5, maby it was because I threw a tantrum through the game, when I ruthlessly jammed the keyboard, and bent my finger the WRONG way. also, many flash artists use bitmaps and such for their cars. I want to say, its a lot harder for someone to model the cars the way this person has. the sound was good, and the ability to change music was better. Also, you cant get more interactive than this, good job on the editor. Humor is on there for three reasons: 1: My mom used the punchbuggy, and painted it as a ladybug. funny stuff. 2: watching her try to match my massive record. You dont want to know the third.
Good job, I reccomend more cars, a panel for the games area, a list of codes for cool cars and inspiration, an area where you can send your score in, with an image of your car. and lastly, maby you can make up some sweet cars, or really coll existing cars (porshe boxter, mustang, firebird). -Raraken

[Kill Old Man from Zelda!!]

cute, but not too bright.

I admit, the graphica were alright, but take some time and cut out the damn shapes before you go making huge black splotches around the screen. And okay, you have the music, but no other sounds. also, some of the "gags" could have been better. okay, a fart is funny, but you need some things that would be unexpected. for an example: instead of cutting with the sword, use the dull end to break the old guys hip, and when he tries to pathetically run, he falls into the fire. You did try hard though, and I admire that, work on it, and hit the web with all you have.
To: MI4_REAL_2001, thats how you review.

[Gravity Ball]

Needs another level! more!

That was a great game. But the last level, light on, lights off, was tough. if you add on a lights on, lights off type game, with three grey blocks circleing around it, and maby a gravity distortion feild (the left and right potential would switch with up and down), and a on/off switch that moves across the screen, below the panels. ;)
