BicPenmaster's game Reviews on Newgrounds

[The Children of Brinn]

I really thought this game was interesting. The characters all had good backstory, and the premise was coming along nicely. But come on! It was way too short! A game shouldn't be over in 5 minutes or less! More story! More content! Would have been 5 stars if it was decent length.

[Invasion game]

Hey!

Not bad! Well programmed, I see a lot of potential!

Keep up the good work!

BTW Especially nice job on the backgrounds!

[ET Smash]

Meh

Boring, samey gameplay. Movement of the main weapon makes no sense. No upgrades, nothing to hold attention. I played it about 50 seconds, then got bored.

[Doom Triple Pack]

Okay, I hate to say this, but

I appreciate the effort, but why waste all that time copying someone else's game? Your efforts would have been better spent making a game of your own. Newgrounds, to me, is about creativity, and I would love to see your OWN ideas here.

Yes, you've done well making a game thats already made, and you get a good rating for that. But do something CREATIVE if you really want to impress.

A couple of bugs, but not bad.

Well, only one bug really. My suggestion is that you should put in a few lines of code to check what letters are already on the field so it doesn't drop the same ones. I almost lost the race because for a while it was dropping a red one of the same letter for every green one! Meaning I went nowhere. I saw duplicate letters a lot. So yeah!

Not bad at all!

[Festival Pro]

Hee hee, well done!

I wouldn't call it hard compared to other games I've played. SCGM 1 and 2 were much much harder. It was however, very well done. I like the attempt at distraction with the juggling fire and whatnot!

[Battlefield General]

Very nicely done

But I have a few criticisms. As an avid strategy gamer, there are a few features I was missing terribly. For instance, your units do not listen to your commands. Several times, I lost all my men because they would not attack the enemies I told them to, or they wouldn't walk away from the enemy. The AI makes them charge in full on, which makes strategizing impossible. You can't take out their archers when your cavalry always go after the nearest troops and get cut to pieces by arrows. Please, if you revise this or make a sequel, PLEASE make them listen to orders.

My only other complaint is the lack of a fast way to get around the battlefield. You can't hotkey groups of units. (You know, ctrl 1 while they are selected) and this makes things a little awkward. All in all, however, a most enjoyable game. I look forward to future submissions!

freeworldgroup responds:

thanks : - ) all units can be selected using hotkeys - just look at the game controls. The soldiers generally listen to orders unless the enemy is too close, in which case they will fight- though you can order them again and they try to retreat - but like real life, they suffer for it.

[The Bar Pick-Up]

Not Bad, I must say

A well made game, not bad, to be sure. I liked the choices, which were actually almost hard at some points, and I especially liked the explanations for why each choice was good or bad. The voice acting was pretty good. The only complaint is no matter HOW good you do, you STILL end up at home alone, watching cheap softcore porn on skinemax. Ya dig? I got all money moves, and still wound up hugging the ol pillow.

Other than that, pretty awesome work. Keep it up!
