Syrsly's game Reviews on Newgrounds

[Word Invaders]

Confusing!

I wasn't sure how to play. I tried typing the words, but it just didn't show anything.

[CAT game]

Bad, but not bad for the filesize.

I think a 3/5 is a good rating for it, because it's really a bad game with bad controls (on the menu anyway), but it's such a low filesize that I think it deserves to stay online.

Try adding mouse button control to the menu, and consider redesigning the game entirely. Why a cat?

[Newgrounds Rumble]

I enjoyed it.

Best Flash-powered fighting game ever.
I've played it before, and I don't think it should have been part of any new contest, but I love the game, and it seems like you worked a lot on it.

[PongOut]

OMFG! That's hard! Oh, wait, nevermind...

It's a nice concept, well, it's not original, but it's nice.
I think the interface needs work. Maybe you could put the paddles into one whole screen instead of two split screens. I do like it so far, so keep working on it.

[Windows XP alpha 0.1]

The prompt is good.

I found the text stuff pretty funny, but that was just about the only part of the 'game' I found interesting. Your paint emulation is poor to say the least.

[MicroySoft]

The power supply makes it annoying.

I hated how little time I had to explore before it would restart or power off. However, there wasn't much to do in the first place.

[Flash Geometry Wars]

Too small but nice clone.

My only problem was how small and bad-looking everything was. The music was fine, but it could use a little customization, and the controls were extremely easy. If you're curious, my score was 11239 before I let myself die. I didn't quit due to boredom; I quit due to time restraints. I saved the game for later.

[Runescape Buddymaker]

I've created better.

These sprites don't stand the test of time. Buddy sprites need a lot of work in order to look good. Also, this dress-up doesn't give you enough options. You can't change your hair color or shoe color, and the helmets, especially the dragon full helmet, look horrible.

[The Tutorial Collab '08]

Not as useful as it might have been last year.

Not much different from '06, the tutorials, anyway.
Music is better, though, even though it still gets annoying... and sometimes says 0% Loaded. It was a bit confusing how to get music running, but I didn't want sound in the first place, so let's move on...

I much rather get my tutorials from webpages, I guess. The Flash tutorials are nice, though, and I love the way everything is compiled into one big resource. I also like the way everything looks, very Wii-ish, very... uh... white. I like the presentation, so job well done.

[Artillery Live]

Fun stuff!

It's a novelty to be an online Flash game. Most are played by yourself, so you don't get that neat chat atmosphere, but this game has an easy-to-use chat that never really gets used. It's a shame.

To improve this game, give us accounts, allow tank upgrades, and allow key input. I hate moving with the mouse. Look at Gunbound for a nice example.
