[NG Level Icon Maker V2]

Nice gizmo.

Certainly lots to play with.

For a tip, AS3 has the ability to save data to the local computer and the as3corelib has a jpeg encoding class so you can simply encode the image and save :) Also makes it tonnes easier to upload the image to a server. Nice server work though, the uploaded icon webpage thing is quite snazzy.

smokinjoeevil responds:

So you're saying I could have the Flash Player encode a JPG file and save it directly to the user's machine? I'll have to look into that.

Although, with regard to uploading to a server after that, they user would then have to take extra steps after that to upload it themselves, right? I couldn't very well write a JPEG file onto a server using the Flash Player, I wouldn't think. It's not going to have permissions to do so.

[Going Up!]

No redeeming qualities..

Firstly, this is not Halloween related in any way.

Secondly, the art in this game was really bad, you attempted to have a story but in reality there was none, the gameplay was simple and unfun, the sound was annoying.

I completed it, for some reason, but I didn't enjoy it..

Renandchi2 responds:

I DONT KNOW WHY THIS IS IN THE HALOWEEEN COLLECTION, JUST GET OFF MY FUCKING BACK PEOPLE!

i suck at art, you know, laptop wit mouse. kinda hard to draw awesomelly. and maybe you completed it cause you liked it, but you don't wanna admit it...

[String Avoider 2]

Best game ever made

Not really, it was good but unoriginal (the 1st was originalish and a nice change, this is just a couple of new ideas on an old concept). Go back to that online side scroll shooter, I forgot the name! But it was the best flash game I ever played and would have made you a lot of money. Screw NG, host it on an external dedicated site with a full blown community and all that crap.

Love you fwe, nice to see the most kickass NGer ever is still alive.. <3

fwe responds:

Nice to see you, you NGger. I agree this game wasn't too awesome though. Hollow Point was the game you're thinking of. It'd be awesome to whip that out again and play, the server's really laggy though.

I hab'nt seen you on, ever. You go on flash forum still?

[-ReBound-]

Nice

There are so many of these games out, it's good to see a good one for once :) Great graphics, which is the most notable thing - nice job all round.

<3.

TrueDarkness responds:

Heh thanks liam =D
I didn't advetise this game much, at all really. It was sort of just a Flash-hobby-done game that I made out of some spare time. Thanks though, you are teh kewlz

[APICopter Beta 1]

Not bad

"No bitmap graphics".. Right, what about the background? That's a bitmap image created at runtime using the BitmapData API. What you meant is no pre-drawn graphics or images :P Anywai, nice job.

mofongo9 responds:

yea lol

[shoddy AS tut 2]

Learn AS yourself first

That really was shoddy, are you sure you even know what AS you are coding in? The scripts were copy and pasted from other tutorials and therefore they sucked, also the presentation was terrible too. In the variables section, you didn't even consider PROPER variables. For example:

var myName:String = "Liam";
var myAge:Number = 15;
etc.

My dog could make a better tutorial.

flashfreakz responds:

Well bravo to your dog.

[Magnetism 2]

Nice

First off, Wang-a-matic (previous review) is just completly inane. Of course the ball will land in different places all the time, thats physics for you! Try and do this sort of thing in real life and the same sort of thing would happen, the ball will move randomly.

Anyway, awesome game.. nicely made and well actionscripted. One thing, please don't make a 3rd just to improve yourbatting average Glaiel.. this game (like I said) is good, but it's starting to get boring.

Good luck, and congrats on daily feature, front page, etc.

Oh and please make a previous arrow for the ball colour/theme.

Glaiel-Gamer responds:

Yea, I wont make a 3rd for a long time. The game is just too tedious for me to make. Original levels each game gets really difficult.

[Project: Monochrome]

Excellent work

Finally, a completed version (well despite the fact you didn't reach your quota of 100 levels) for me to play. Excellent game, awesome gameplay, adequate graphics. I think it may have been better with a larger screen size, 800x600 maybe..

Anyway, excellent game and congratulations on the front page, it's well deserving.

Glaiel-Gamer responds:

Ya, but if there were 100 levels, who would reach the end? 70 levels makes it still have like 2.5 hours or more of gameplay.

[Make Obesity History]

Raise. Awareness.

Woohoo, this game is one of those games that is entertaining and has a hidden depth. fat people aren't [always] funny.

Anyway, great game and thanks for making it ;)

FLiXD responds:

for [always], read [not]

[Red, White, & Blue]

Great ideas

Very good ideas, I didn't particulary enjoy the colour scheme but it was pretty well made so it wasn't bad, the worst thing was that there were no shades so the authors couldn't use the sort of style they like (the next one is going to be awesome, great choice of colours).

The games were well made and very intuitive, I enjoyed Xelious game the most, it was GTA-esque yet distinctively different and new.

Keep it up, this deserves front page.

Glaiel-Gamer responds:

yeah, but the chances are slim though. Green and black will do very well.
