Cyberdevil's game Reviews on Newgrounds

[Blood Tutorial]

Good tutorial! The frame by frame instructions for blood effects on stickmen, followed by a looping example animation, that was a great move! As for the Madness blood, the examples were good, but... where's the animation? Where's the frame by frame? And a... 'sorry that wasn't so helpful' at the end??? Feels like you rushed that part a bit. :P Overall though, good tutorial, with really slick blood effect samples. Keep at it!

[Mouse run]

The mouse mazes are always fun to play, but with this one I kinda lost interest realy on, during level 2. Just a square, with linear walls going inward and inward... it's not much of an attractive level layout. And what a sudden rise in challenge too. Level one was easy, level two really tries your patience. The game controls are good otherwise; you even added some cheating countermeasures, nice. :) One thing that's not explained though, is that you need to press the green circle to start a level. Might seem obvious but maybe it should be stated. Keep it going!

[We Are Legend:Arockalypse]

This is pretty awesome, probably would be the best Rock Out entry I've played so far... if it wasn't for those controls. Why the spacebar? It would be so easy if you could just tap the keys to set off the traps, instead of using a combination. I'm all for simplicity! The introduction was a bit long too, but entertaining at the same time (wouldv'e been nice with a Skip option though). I like the zombie idea. Compared to other music games like this, they're the big difference. It's not just a sleek and visual interface with good music, there's a plot; some gore too. Nice idea, but it could be easier to play (doesn't mean it shouldn't still be challenging)!

JohnnySedona responds:

This was back when Guitar Hero was at the height of its popularity, which is why it's got the Guitar Hero style controls.

BUT - If you don't like them, you don't have to use them. Go to "Settings" on the main menu and turn on "DDR Mode" for instant gratification.

Also, use the "Skip to Tutorial" and "Skip to Game" buttons in the corner of the screen to skip the intro and tutorial, respectively.

Thanks for playing!

[MegaSuper: EXTREME]

Another great Rock Out submission! I like the unstable menu layout, the steady introductory rock music, the plentiful selection of tracks available in the game and the ease with which you play. ASDF seems like the perfect set of keys, and seeing those notes burst when you hit them at the right moment is a both addicting and rewarding experience. Simple fun!

[!!THE PACER!!]

Woo, another great Rock Out entry! Apart from the odd, often clashing, color combinations on the menu buttons - the game itself was a fun experience. The tutorial explains everything with ease, and the game itself is fast-paced and varied. Would be easier to move the character around if he wasn't completely round (and the direction only shows by the line within the circle, as opposed to something that pops out of it), but apart from that... it's an overall entertaining experience. nice work!

[Super Duper Pong]

Ah, a horizontal Pong game! It's strange, probably an old habit that's hard to break, but I have a hard time aiming from side to side instead of up and down when things start speeding up. The game in itself is good, simple and flawless, but it would be even more fun with some music/sound and some better graphics (textures, scenery in the background?). I do like the ending screen though! :P Keep it going.

[The Anarchists Cookbook]

Woah, a classic collection put into Flash form! I've read this earlier as a txt file, but it's great seeing it split up in an interface like this. The buttons could be easier (with hit areas around the entire chapter text for example) but apart from that it's a great idea; plenty of good information. Nice work!

[Plasma Orchestra]

Well that was harder than I expected! At first I imagined I could make walls with movement, the way the motion trail seemed to stay in place... but it turned out that was just a frail illusion. Bumpy music, great graphics... but almost too fast gameplay. Keep it going though!

[Dunce Dunce Revolution]

Woo, another great contest entry! I usually don't like Dance Dance games, but when it's in a Flash... it's a whole new thing. Gotta love the twisted characters too, RAB FTW. Keep up the great work!

[Temple Guardian]

Nice, a simple tower defense game with plenty of upgrades and foes. It's not difficult to learn, but it's a challenge to advance. I love games like this, so keep it going! No points to improve, though it would be cool with less square grids for the battlefield.
