EvilKris's game Reviews on Newgrounds

[When Pigs Fly]

if you cover your ears, it's ok

cute and stylish little game but the sfx...uggghhh..almost makes the thing unplayable, sorry to say.

[Super Mario 63]

Excellent!

Amazing clone dude!
You must've spent months doing this. It's too bad it's licenced so you probably won't be able make a ton of cash from this, but if I was Nintendo I'd be thinking of throwing you a bone and have you convert this to the DS for a fat salary.

[King's Island]

astoundingly well polished

Find it amazing how this game has slipped through the ratings almost unnoticed. It's a fantastic game. Mimics Diablo so well. The only reason I can think of why this game isn't somewhere on the top of the Newgrounds portal listing is a) because of the 'fanboy' element of NG where you have to make a game featuring some Tom Pulp character or else, and b) the intro graphics are kinda shit.

Ingame though, fucking masterpiece. Superb engine by the way.

[Post War]

Hmmm

Yeah kinda dull. The AI the enemies have isn't anything to marvel at. The graphics quite lacklustre with a few swapDepth() issues. Barrels don't explode but simply vanish. And combo's where are they? Even DD had combos and that was made 20-something years ago. No run, no weapons (are there?). Sounds are baaaaad, please please don't tell me you made the sounds using your own voice aka BowMaster that is suicide for any game.
If there's anything positive to say about the game then it's that I didn't see any obvious bugs. Feel sorry for you because I know how it feels to put so much effort into a game that other people will only play for only a few minutes. Just gotta pick yourself up and try harder next time. Good luck.

[hokuto no ken fighting]

O mae ha mou shinderu!!!

This is quite a polished piece of work. You'll get no credit from me for the graphics (since they're just ripped from the arcade) but from a coders perspective you've done well, it runs together smoothly and even though the graphics aren't yours you havent buggered up the animations and sfx. I'll be a little harsh and criticise you for some classic noob coding (holding down any key repeats a move forever), but I praise you for doing a good job of tying it all together. I see potential in this Young Jedi. Keep making games mofo, you've a talent for it.

[SHIFT]

nice rip

wasn't this concept stolen from that dude who made the 'design a new game every day for a year' blog. If I remember correctly the original title was like 'Black and White'
well done on using it and abusing it though

[Megaman vs Ghosts&Goblins]

Delicious

Have to say, from a coders point of view, +respect+
Your tile engine is sweet, it mimicks most old Snes games of the same variety. Even the jump height is determined by the length of time you hold down the key.Moving platforms etc, good fucking job man.

[The Last Stand.]

Superb

Wow. That's a good effin' game you folks made there.
Loved the animations, they almost look like rotoscopes. Very smooth and colourful and at the same time not too cartoonish or stupid.
Up there with Bow Master as one of my favs on Newsgrounds right now.
CHeers,
Kris

[Bowmaster Prelude]

Best Flash game there is

I'm a pretty harsh judge of other peoples games, but this one just blows me away. The graphics aren't up to much, but the gameplay is just addictive as hell. I spent 3 hours playing this tonight, and most flash games I know can't keep me occupied for 5 minutes. Well done.
Still looking for an artist? I could do some test renders for you, build the characters in 3dmax, et al, send me a pm.

[Drakojan Skies Aco (Full)]

Wicked game, man!

First time I've played one of your Drakojan Skies games, and have to say 'top marks all round.
Great shoot-em up. The graphics were particularly good. One change I'd make though would be to ditch the graphics for the characters, which are shite.
Otherwise brilliant job.
