Balloon Hunter

"Fine little game"

submission: Balloon Hunter
date: October 9, 2003

Shame you can't get the other main features to work, those would have made it score a lot higher. Takes a bit of skill, but it's fun for a while. The lush background and pleasant music add to the experience. Great for just killing a few minutes, could possibly become addictive.

Author's Response:

I would have loved to implement the other two features for newgrounds, but due to restrictions on Flash Player 6, It wasnt an option. Yes, there is a new flash player available(whose new security features would allow me to unlock tournament mode and the high score viewer), but Im quite sure not enough people are using it at the moment.

"Sweet 99K followup"

submission: Love, Wink
date: October 9, 2003

Very nice job with this - a cool storyline with lots of action and comedy moments. Like 99K, it's got great graphics which are the best feature of the movie and the soundtrack is apt and is a pleasure to listen to. Good idea with the easter eggs and the interactivity in the preloader, although I didn't find any. Super flash movie!

One Letter...

"Not horrendously bad"

submission: One Letter...
date: October 6, 2003

It's pretty poor, but it was sort of funny in places and wasn't bad enough to warrant a score less than 1. Doesn't deserve to be much higher than 1 and would be blammed if rereleased today, but it's not as terrible as the score suggests.

Tactics Core Demo

"Excellent game"

submission: Tactics Core Demo
date: October 5, 2003

Very complex RPG game - lots of different units and attacks, and if you like this sort of thing you'll come back and play it again and again. It's not my cup of tea though, and although it was initially enjoyable it got tiresome and boring quickly. Very nice graphics.

IRAQ ATTACK

"Cool game"

submission: IRAQ ATTACK
date: October 5, 2003

Great fun - lots of killing to be done, controls are good, graphics aren't brilliant but are good enough and some fine explosion sounds. Nice game, couldn't see an obvious end to it but enjoyable with good replay value.

Dedlaw, Cleaner Code = ]

"Good shooting game"

date: October 5, 2003

Has a solid engine and plays well, and I like the way that it has the same feature as Elite where you can run out of energy for your guns and you have to wait for a recharge. The problem with this is there's no real change in the action - it's just the same enemy over and over again, and with no scoring system to gauge your progress by and no boss (or if there was, it was a VERY long way into the level) it can get tiresome.

The Buffalo King

"Great visuals"

submission: The Buffalo King
date: October 5, 2003

The visuals and animation were great - getting towards the top end, lots of detail, care and attention, and the music added a good deal of atmosphere to the movie. Not a great deal of plot but you do say it's a work in progress, it'll be good if you can make a full length movie along these lines.

Ernest and Bob: ep. 1

"OK cartoon"

date: October 5, 2003

Not a bad idea, not particularly entertaining but at least it had some sort of a plotline, a preloader and sound. Voices weren't too bad, could have used a few more sound effects here and there. A bit short as well, but it's not a bad effort.

Sproinky The Robot

"OK trailer"

submission: Sproinky The Robot
date: October 5, 2003

Looks like you could have an interesting character there, rather Inspector Gadget-esque. Nicely drawn with good animation, although as the previous guy said, the photo background does look a bit crappy. Just do something with it more than a short trailer.

- old thing 07

"Below average plug"

submission: - old thing 07
date: October 5, 2003

Not a great movie in all honesty - all it's doing is plugging one of your other movies and has little else in it, apart from saying how great NG is. Good if overused pop-up joke.
