[Absalom RPG 2]

Excellent Work.

Brilliant work on the combat system, though I found Marthanne much more helpful then a potion in battle. I played this for hours this morning and found some interesting card combinations and I've decided to set attack as the main for Emma, To-Hit as the main for Marthanne and defense for little old Hiro. Lol. The new characters were interesting and pleasurable to fight. Ratty was poorly drawn though. I prefered the old scarab beetle, but great job on the catgirl. The rubbish bin was a brilliant idea as was the duke box and gamble machine. They compare luck to skill. I found the rubish bin hell. I needed money so I kept on trying and trying. It lead to my death several times. The duke box I didn't bother with and the gamble machine I gave up on. But they were all great ideas. Oh, and to you gamers out there, the big trouble isn't as horrible as you think and the holiday was meant to be a time of reguvination. I also noticed that you changed some of the backgrounds.

All in all, great job. Very superior to the original Absolem RPG (flash). Excellent work Kinsman. The music however can get tiresome after a while and the graphics weren't the greatest, but still a great job!

[Megaman Next - Intro]

Great!

I would normally have loved to read the history, but I was very distracted. Still. I loved the dea of getting all the history and background into one movie as well as a quick tutorial. I reckon sme of the levels were a little hard and I had to try a few times. I'm not gonna stand a chance against the game itself. Am I? =D Oh well. I had fun. Wish me luck. I'll call you if I survive ;-) Okay. Great game. Took a while to get the controls goin and can you hurt those little red guys with the sheild? I almost can't kill them so I just run past them. The boss wasn't the hardest ever, but it looked really cool. It could've used a few more attacks though, but a great game.

Shoot the joes when they move their shield to shoot you. I wish you luck young padowan.

[Super Ninja]

Good!

This was very good and it reminded me or Worms as well. I tried all morning to beat the time limit, but now at night when I'm online again, I beat it easily. Why is that? After 6 attempts, I got it in 30 seconds. I dare someone to beat that. I thought by beating the time I could get out of the Practise Level. Is there anything beyond that? I must admit this is highly addictive despite the poor graphics. I played this for like an hour this morning. Great game. Tha ninja net was a very good idea, though it was quite pointless since the enemies don't hurt you and it takes too much time trying to get the powerup they leave. The jump was actually quite helpful. It was a much faster way of transportation then the rope. All in all, a fantastic game.

[Stardust]

This was pretty good!

I generally like the idea of saving your pikachu with stardust, but I agree with everyone else, and even you. The game wasn't actually that short, it just seemed short because it was fun, and time speeds up when you're having fun. In other words, WE WANT MORE!! Lol.

Okay. Point 2. When you think about it, you really didn't need the nudity if you really think about it. Not even for those porn hungry perverts. The girls alone would have been enough to make it a great game all the same.

Point 3. The invading ships was a good idea, but I don'tr eally see the point of the hospital. If the ships attack you in space on your way to the star, why do you have a hospital to go back to?

Point 4. That was an amazing flight sequence. Absolutely amazing. I haven't seen anything close to that using Flash. It was so fantastic! And a really good idea to put in the skip button cause after twice it gets pretty annoying.

All in all, this was an awesome game, and I love that music! It was quite interactive, but perhaps a bit too simple, but entertaining all the same. Excellent job!

[Pico's Cousin]

I like it!

This was a decent game. It wasn't quite as good as the original Pico's School, but it was just as interactive except easier. The enemies didn't follow a set pattern of attacks like the other one did. Okay, I know they did, but it was over before I could memorise it so I was just clicking everywhere. The plot wasn't the best I've seen, but theinteractivity was good. I would have still prefered it if it had some other things to do. The idea of the control units was quite good. I like things like that. And I always read pointless things that are written in pointlessly small text, so it was easy to solve except I wasn't perfectly accurate for a few times. I couldn't be bothered zooming in. What was the darkness creature? Elmandiblo, the spanish terrorist? Was he just some guy you made? And what was it talking about fighting for it's country?

The battle sequences were a little difficult but not overly so like Pico's school and Bear in the Big House that Blew. I just hate it how I have to click everywhere becuase I usually click out of the screen making them get about 2 free shots.

Still. The overall concept was good and it was a short enjoyable game that took you three months. Thanks for that Magna.

[BTC - Dressup Game]

:)

This was better than I thought. Nice carrot. It was suprisingly fun dressing him up as a gentlemen, pirate and crazy tongue dude. I'm amazed! I don't see what Kalar is so worked up about. It was funny! He's probably just a sex-crazed pervert.

[GunBlaze: Video Shooter]

Doh!

Since when were we graded on our accuracy?!? I was shooting rapid fire all over the place! It wasn't the best of ideas giving infinet ammo and a bullet proof vest, but It's not my game. It's yours meaning it's up to you, and if that's how you anted it, leave it like that!

And you know how it says in real life I'de be full of holes? That's wouldn't be true. I'm a very good gunner. Computer games aren't as easy as reality. I'm very skilled with a gun.each one of them would be dead on the ground with little trickles of blood pooling out of their head while I am laughing. I'de be alot more cautious inn reality, but this isn't reality is it. I'de kick ass in reality, but still.

Hey, I like your house alot. I think. It was blurry, but it looks nice. I think I saw a pool? I think it was just the floor tiles. And why do you have your computer in a different room with a lock? And you have a nice bed. It's a queen sized two person by the look of it obviously meaning too big for one person. You probably have a wife and kids, but that's none of my business, so I'll just back away slowly now...

PS: If you made a game where you are the enemy, doesn't that make it suicide?

PPS: Who's voice was that on the radio? Probably yours.....

PPPS: I thought the message was supposed to blow up.

PPPPS: You look young for someone who's 21. Very young. Almost too young..... I wont press, since I'm striving to respect peoples privacy.....

PPPPPS: You look different as a boss... NOw I'm just droning.

PPPPPPS: I'm getting very carried away with the PS's. Aren't I =)

jamus-se responds:

The ranking system is too strict, I know. I usually get the "full of holes" message myself. I also wholehearted agree between the difference of real and virtual guns: I can't shoot a target 20 feet away with a real gun (I tried).

PS: SWAT teams don't blow up their messages.
PPS: The backup radio is blatant rips from CounterStrike; the other voice is mine.
PPPS: I do look too young to be 21. So long as my ID is in my wallet I would like to stay that way.
PPPPS: I look differnet because my face got blurted out in post production.
PPPPPS: Yes, you really got carried away with the PS's.
PPPPPPS: So did I.

[Dark Prophecy Alpha 2]

Absoletely fantstic.

I love your introduction. I love the darkness. I saw Dark Prophecy in your list of movies after playing Ronin-Spirit of the sword and eargerly followed the link. The qualities of perfection I do not have, but I love the darkness. I will remember that. "You were born in darkness and you shall die in darkness". Very dramatic.

What's a "Dermuk"? Whatever.

And I think I agree with . The saving thing is broken. I accidently closed it and I couldn't get my charcter back. I'll play it some other time when I'm more patient. Sorry Mr Tiberian. Or would you rather me call you James? Whatever. Yur still going to be one of my favourite authors.

[Pointless Waste Of Time]

Whoa dude.

Man this bites. What a pointless waste of time... oh wait. Yeah. It's supposed to be. And I guess you did warn me. I can't blame you. I have only myself to blame for watching the crappiness you tried to protect me from. Man you suck for making crap like this. And Metal Slug S. That sucked almost as much as this, but you warned me against that didn't you. Damnit! I can't blame you for anything. You sly bastard. ;-)

VelvetDarkRocks

[PingPong]

Well that sucked.

That sucked very much indeed. Still, I guess it must have taken effort to make. I doubt and I quote: "years of research and developement" though. Still, why make a game that is pointless and boring? Maybe I shouldn't be so harsh. You made this for a good reason, but I don't know what that might be, so I wont discriminate further.
