xXxMagusxXx's game Reviews on Newgrounds

[Labyrneath]

I saw big boobies. Here's a 5 just on principle.
<3 you.
The soundtrack was awesome.
The gameplay is challenging.
You came up with a great game.

[Blooming Love - Online Demo]

I like the characters they're hot, and boobs are kinda my thing,
but I'm kinda with the rest of the crew here. How the hell is this a game at all when it's just you picking pre selected answers and responses? No animation really other than frame skips and text. It's a visual choose your own adventure novel.
Sorry my friend, I like the boobs and the nudity, the characters are even hot, but cmon man you can do way better. Give the audience something to want first.

Until next time
-Hail Cobra

What you just described (text + pre-determined responses to alter parts of the story + some visual elements) has a name: Visual novel. It is a game genre. What you consider a 'game' is up to you of course. But in general visual novels are certainly seen as games. I'll admit visual novels perhaps aren't the best genre for this particular website. The expectations for what to expect from the 'games' up here are different from what this game offers. I'm seen very different reactions to the game from various websites. This one is by far the most negative one, but that's okay. People here aren't used to seeing visual novels. There are people who like visual novels though as they focus purely on story and choices to make in that story. I take issue with the suggestion that 'I could have done better' for example. To me this feels like saying 'you could have done better' to a person developing an RPG while you were expecting an racing game. You're free to have your own opinion though, so do with it what you will

[Project Dimentia Bodhisattva]

Neat little game
I like it

TwinBlazar responds:

Thank you! (^_^)(^o^)

[Madness: Project Nexus (Classic)]

Dude,
Krinkels, you put all the awesome guns in this except the GE M134 minigun from Terminator 2

'nuff said.
5 stars.

ok well, P-bot might not like that review, so the skinny on this is basically this game rocks, the animation is stellar, the graphics are otherworldly, and the action is intense. Immensely challenging, good going overall.

I'm trying to learn flash, so looking at what the capabilities are is just plain amazing,
this is a great game, I wish my games were even a fraction of this good :)

[Magus RPG]

This was pretty good! It was a bit short, but for the most part a very good example that you have the potential to make a really massive and great RPG!
Good music,
Good story,
Why were you stingy with the items and weapons?

Because this sample was short, I'm giving it a 4.5, but don't worry, I'm sure your next submission will be fiveworthy! You did a great job

[Demon Runner]

A bit confusing, but once you get the controls down you have to be swift like the ninja.
Lots of skill involved so it gets 4.5

[Besieged]

I like it

I'm new to defense games and I like the concept. I think this game has a lot of potential and I believe it deserves every bit of 10 stars. Of course you're not going to have "starcraft" on newgrounds but this game made me feel like exploring other castle defense genre type games now.

[Final Fantasy Sonic X:Ep6]

This looks like a good series.

I didn't even get to play this episode for 20 seconds. I know this looks like a good series and I'm going to start at 1 before I ruin it.

[Space Invaders Extreme]

Not Bad

I'm not saying this is god's gift to flash animation, but I think you're definately on to something here. As the reviewer before me said, maybe do some upgrades, like a laser that kills multiple enimies at once or something. But unlike traditional space invaders, maybe after a certain amount of kills or high hit% a drop or powerup happens where you can detatch from the left/right scroller and actually fly around temporarily. I've always wanted to do that in the old game, but never could ya know? And hey, it's a game about coordination, so if one crashes into you while flying, then you fail that level. And also to the noob sitting at the far right and hammering at the spacebar can be fun, seeing as how sometimes the faster ones still get away. All in all, an interesting game

Just a thought.

Nerd-02 responds:

Yay! Thank you for you're great review. I'm defiantly making upgrades a part of my next game and your idea of detaching and flying around is very original. My next games will defiantly try to look at things from a different perspective and offer something new to people. And I'll also make sure you can't spawn kill...friken spawn killers.
