Auz's game Reviews on Newgrounds

[Create a Creature]

Mweh, wasn't that good

No, it's deffinatly not perfect, I wouldn't really consider it good either. Most of these games are not that much fun, they're actually a bit boring. Maybe you should check out some other dress-up games to get some ideas on how to make this game better.

Anyway, the game had some bad things. First of all, it really needs some music and some sounds maybe. Without music, the game is even more boring. I prefer no heavy-metal and stuff like that on these kind of games, but that's my opinion. Second, the screensize was a bit too big, I couldn't see every item at full. Third, maybe you should add some cool extra stuff, like eastereggs (know what I mean?).

Well the good thing about this game was that the things you could dress the head up with looked pretty cool. The file-size wasn't too big either, that's good, I don't have to wait that long before it is loaded than.

Well anyway, overall I'd give this 4 out of 10. Like I said, it wasn't that good, a little boring actually. I ain't that interested in a second version, but maybe it'll be a lot better, who knows? Good luck with any future projects.

Not bad for your first try, but..

Well this wasn't really that bad for your first try, but some things about it could be better. It already started in the menu screen. I had a pretty hard time reading the very small letters. The graphics were not that bad, but they could be a bit better in my opinion. The game could also use some more attacks. Maybe thunder attacks, earth attacks, wind attacks, water attacks and different sword techniques for example. It was a bit weird that I had to buy ice and fire attacks, there should be some other way to get them. I think the experience points should have some more use as well. Make levels or make them upgrade the characters stats or something.

The fact that you could save your game was good, but there were some things that went wrong. First of all, when I loaded my game, I heard the menu music and the battle music at the same time. Second, when I went game over I simply had to load the game again and I could battle on. He had the same amount of HP he had when I died, I can only take one hit so I can attack him once, than I went game over and I could load again. Repeat this and you can win every battle. Third, I once loaded the game and I immediatly had to battle against the final boss, which I only attacked once and I defeated him =S. So I'll hope you'll fix these things or maybe you should add a password system instead of the saving/loading.

Overall I'd say this was pretty good for your first try. I'd give it 5 out of 10, so I think I'll vote 2 or 3. Good luck with improving this.

[Mini Indy]

I've seen this before

You know, this looks a bit too much like some other car game I played quite a while ago. The only thing different is the car, the other one had a lotus. Please come up with an original idea next time. The lotus looked a lot better than the car this game had actually, you should at least make this car look a bit better.

The game could also use more tracks (I prefer long ones), more cars, some power-ups that make your car drive faster so that the game will be a lot more fun and some computer opponents maybe(be sure to make the track wider so that you don't bump into the other cars the whole time).

Well I hope your next submission will be a lot better, for now I'll give it 4 out of 10 so I'll vote a 2. Good luck with any submissions your going to make in the future.

pretty funny for a short while, but...

It was pretty funny for a short while, but I got bored with this pretty soon. This movie really needs some stuff like levels and powerups. Well I think levels are the most important thing you should add. Make something like a timer where you have to get a certain amount of points within the time limit or you could add a computer opponent or just something else. At least make the game more of a challenge. As for the powerups, well maybe something that makes you throw harder (it was pretty hard to hit the 100 points target) and if you add a timer, something that makes the time run slower. As for the rest of the game, it could use some better graphics as well. Not that these graphics were that bad, but they were not so very special in my opinion. And the last thing, I think you should add some different backgroundmusic. The current backgroundmusic was a bit annoying. Well I hope your next submission is a lot better. I'll give this a 3 (out of 10) so I'll vote 2 for it. Good luck with any games or movies your going to make in the future.

[Clay Interactive Game]

Usually I don't like clay, but this was allright

Well usually I don't really like any stuff that has anything to do with clay, but I think this one was allright. I haven't seen anything like this before with clay, so I think it's an original idea. Some things about this could be better though. First of all, maybe you should make the screensize a little bit bigger and add some subtitles. Sometimes I think it was hard to understand what the guy was saying. Some backgroundmusic might make this movie a little better as well, but I don't think it really needs that. These were the reasons why I gave you a pretty low score for sound. Second, I think the main character should look a bit better. At least give him some eyes, a nose and a mouth. Third, the most important thing, it really needs to be longer. It takes about 1 minute to finish this game. Make a bigger world, give us more things to do and more decisions to make, add some more other people, give us items and money. If you do all this, be sure to make something like a checkpoint so that you don't have to start all over again when your game over. These were about all the bad things in my opinion. Overall I would say that it was a decent little game, a little short, but kinda okay. I think I'll vote a 3 for this. Good luck with any stuff your gonna make in the future.

[Dragonfire: The Lost Soul]

I hope you'll improve this game

It had a promising title for sure and the idea was pretty good. I liked the idea of making it in 3D, but you deffinatly need to improve the graphics. The demons looked weird, the main character himself didn't looked very good and you should use more colors than orange and brown. Make it look more like a forest, give the trees some leaves and give us the idea that we are walking on grass or in the mud. It was also hard to see when you could hit an enemy and when not. Sometimes the enemy stood a couple of meters from me, but when I swinged my sword, I killed him. Because of this it's also hard to see which enemy hits you and the game became pretty hard, even at level 1. That was it for the graphics, now I have to say, the music was good. Maybe you should add some more sounds, sounds when you walk, sounds when you hit a demon with your sword etc. That will make the game a little better. Well I deffinatly hope you'll improve this game, it's a great idea like I already said. Good luck with improving it.

Scross responds:

Funny for a while, but.....

Well it was pretty funny for I while, but it's not something that I would play over and over again. After you watched all the 4 things once, there is nothing more you can do. So I think you should add more types of weather, like a blizzard, hail, a tornado, rainstorms and maybe sandstorms or something. But than again after you've seen all these it's the same story, you get bored =(. Well anyway the graphics were pretty good, they could use some more color maybe, but they were not bad. Maybe you should add some extra things on the background as well, it only had 2 big buildings right now and that was it, add some trees and stuff like that. Some music would make it a little better as well. Anyway, overall it was nice to watch the movies for a while, I hope you'll get better in the future. Good luck with any movies or other games your going to make.
