[A Christmas Story SB]

Soundboards...

I'm not that much into soundboards, as I never know what to do with them. Sure, clicking buttons and hearing quotes, but that can be achieved more easily by just watching the film.
Speaking of "watching the film": I've never seen the movie in question. I don't think that it was even aired in my country so there's even less joy for me in this soundboard.

Anyway, the sound quality is pretty good, so the large file size actually is justified. It would be nice if the picture changed with the quotes, displaying the actual scenes from the movie. This would give the user something more to look at.

[Sunrise Typer]

Nice game

I like those kind of games. They help me to improve my typing skills. It is pretty well executed, too. No lags at all and the background graphics are nice to look at, too.

However, I got stuck on the second level. The game did not recognize me typing the colon (:). I don't know if this is an error in the game itself or if it has to do that I use the german keyboard layout. The latter seems unlikely, though because the game DID recognize me typing 'y' and 'z' when I pressed the letters on the keyboard (those two are switched in the german and the english layout).

deadlygeek responds:

thanks for the feedback. as for the colon bug - that's not something I thought to test for. I'm going to have to do some research about that. Have you had any problem like that with other Flash Typing games?

cheers.

[More Avoidance!]

Nice actionscripting here

The script you used is quite interesting and it seems to work very well. Now you just need a more interesting game to use the script. :P

It was interesting to experience all the various screens (first one did NOT lag for me, btw) but it gets very repititve quite fast.

The "Curse Rag" was an interesting choice for the background music and it fits the flash quite well in my opinion.

The main downside is the ugly coloring. You should try to work on that for your future submissions.

Yeah, will make something better with the script :D! And lol, the colouring was awesome and you know it! TY for the review :P

[Ghost Motel 11]

The last one... for now

Very nice episode. The last scenes where just amazing and the battle against the demons where I had to press the letters on the keyboard worked really well.

I sure hope you someday find the time to continue this series. It was fun watching/playing it so far!

Thanks :)

[Ghost Motel 10]

Good

The riddles in this episode are very easy compared to some of the riddles in previous episodes, but I enjoyed playing this game nevertheless.

The story is quite interesting (even though it's a bit strange that Tabitha forgets the combination of the locker ^^) and the cliff hanger at the end of the episode is done very nice.
Good thing that I don't have to wait until the next episode comes out! :)

Thanks a bunch.

[Ghost Motel 8]

Good platformer

This is a good platform/jump 'n' run game. It's quite a nice change from the other episodes.

The graphics are very nice and the level layout is very interesting. It's good that I have to go back serveral screens to be able to reach the blue crystals sometimes. This increases the difficulty level of the game a bit. Otherwise it would be too easy I guess.

However, the end bosses are a bit too hard because if they hit me/run through me I am not able to hit them. It's a bit annoying to run after the boss of level 1 and if I get a bit too close to him I got hit and lose energy.

Also, the lip syncing wasn't done that good this time. The voice already finished the text and the speech bubble didn't even show the rest of the text. This should've been looked over before submitting this to the portal.

Violet-AIM responds:

Yeah the voices are always hard.

[Madness Short 5 - M136]

Nice idea

The idea of the interactive madness movie is pretty good, and I think I already reviewed an earlier version of this.

I think there should be more options in this game. Even though it means more work for you. ;)
It would be nice if I could explore more rooms and if I could decide which rooms I want to explore, etc. .

Also, the scenes should be a bit faster and more "action packed" than they are now.

Again, thanks for the advice! Yeah, I've learnt that it doesn't matter how long it takes, as long as it's good. Thanks again ;)

[Our Newgrounds quiz]

Good

Good quiz with some interesting questions that cover nearly every aspect of NG.

I especially like the points system you used here. If I answer a question wrong I get punished for it with negative points. It's much better than if I had to retake the whole quiz once I got an answer wrong.

The music is quite entertaining, but I still think a button to turn it off would be very helpful. Even the best song can get annoying after some time.

One minor error in the quiz though: England is NOT a country but part of the United Kingdom. So the answer to the question "Which country does liljim come from?" is wrong. It should be "United Kingdom" instead of "England". :P

Okay, Thanks so let's me respond:

"I especially like the points system you used here. If I answer a question wrong I get punished for it with negative points. It's much better than if I had to retake the whole quiz once I got an answer wrong."

Yeah I enjoyed it too at the testing :)

"The music is quite entertaining, but I still think a button to turn it off would be very helpful. Even the best song can get annoying after some time."

Yeah it kinda annoying but I forget the mute out off all of these actions and questions... Anyways - Stress.

"One minor error in the quiz though: England is NOT a country but part of the United Kingdom. So the answer to the question "Which country does liljim come from?" is wrong. It should be "United Kingdom" instead of "England". :P"

Yeah, But don't ask me :) I'm not the writer :(

PS - You're from this club too?
