SlingBang's game Reviews on Newgrounds

[Homecoming]

The ending made it 5-stars.

Bleak-Creep responds:

I think you’re the first person besides myself who likes the ending

[Madness: The Battering]

I've played this game for 2 hours, but it's a bit repetitive. Chopping heads, jumping spikes and eating hotdogs... Wish there was more.

edit: Of course it's BS! The (obviously poor) 'joke' was supposed to be I only played the minigames and totally missed the entire game! Although, I was waiting quite awhile for a match. It would cool if we could choose to play solo vs computer...

larrynachos responds:

For 2 hours, yet you unlocked none of the achievements? Calling bs on that one friendo

[Puzzle Crafter]

Excellent idea and the level editing ability is fun and easy to use!
Could use some improvement in graphics so -1 star

larrynachos responds:

I'm glad you enjoyed it! I'm not very good with graphic design, and most of the assets I use are from Kenny's asset packs. They're great for getting ideas like this out of my brain and on screen though! Anywhere in particular that needs improvement? I know the editor needs a makeover visually lol. Thanks for the review!

[Zapp Wrap]

Nice idea. Click a tile then click ANY open space where you want it to move. Fun, but almost impossible to lose, so becomes boring. Would be better if added events like unmovable tiles, exploding tiles when touched, or special abilities like destroy a line, remove all of one color, once you match enough or get enough points.

FunBot responds:

thanks for the feedback

[Life is chaos... RNG UPDATE!]

You need to include instructions. How to play, win, what is the point of game. I figured out how to move and that's it? So... maybe not a finished game?

IUWUI responds:

its not finished and its my first time uploading a flash game on here i used scratch to make this i converted this into a flash file and uploaded it thats prob why the warning looks messed up thanks for your feedback!

[Only One Tower]

Nicely done!

Stopsignal responds:

Thank you! :)

[The Four Eyed Creature]

Game went to instruction screen with WASD for move, QE switch weapon and... stayed there. No button on keyboard does anything. Clicking the image does nothing. Full screen mode worked. Play button didn't appear, I guess?

Taldius responds:

Oh you got a weird bug, I will investigate to see if I find anything.

Not sure why you have a disclaimer about racism since this game is not even remotely racist, and neither was the Rwandan genocide. I would not Blam this game for being offensive but I would Blam it for being crap.

Firstly, you don't 'honor' genocide... by killing... how did this idea even enter your mind. That's like honoring a rape victim by making 'rape' porn... I feel you were terribly misguided in your entire idea for this game. I actually like hardcore stuff but this was just... crap.

Some explanation:

There are no instructions what to do. You have to use the mouse AND the 'W' key to move? You move slower than a turtle. No one runs or fights you when you shoot people. I thought there were only 5 bullets until I guessed to use 'R' to reload. There is no skill involved. Just mash the mouse and 'R' buttons to change the black pixels into red pixels...
Music is... fitting at least. +0.5 stars.
The game is programmed properly. +0.5 stars.
Very poor judgement for even making a game like this. -1 star.

Luminem responds:

The game itself isn't the "honor", the game doesn't match with reality. The honor, it's to remember what happened there by the 'story'.
I understand you don't like it but you say things are a bit strange for example. Obviously, you've to reload cause if it's 'crap' now imagine a game where you've only to press the mouse. I don't know if you've realized you can run pressing shift key and to end with, this isn't GTA my budget is of 0$. I'm just one person, no a 100 people studio.
Thanks you so much for your useful review.

[Baltic Gambit]

Well, I wasn't put off by the minimalist graphics, I didn't mind the card game idea, or the obscure political plotline. I usually like complicated strategy games...

The problem with this one is after 30 minutes of 'strategically' improving the 6 resource categories, blocking enemy attacks, placing spies to capture hexes, then losing them 2 turns later, suddenly the enemy plays a gain 4 Victory Points card! WTF! He only needs 8VP to win the game... so, I just started discarding cards until I got my VP cards (or the 'search your deck' for a VP card) instead. 10 minutes later I won. Why? That makes everything else in the game pointless...

I'd suggest getting rid of the Victory Points and dramatically increase the power of all the other cards so you can actually advance across the map. It takes massive work to conquer even one hex and then you lose it in 2 turns anyways. There are also ridiculously powerful cards in the game like the ones that bring in an ally (gain 30 more hexes!) or 'disable supply to ALL adjacent hexes' combined with 'conquer ALL disabled hexes' -I used that one TWICE to conquer 20 hexes in one move... Seems a little unbalanced, not to mention illogical. Strategy games should not be random luck.

I still liked the game but it really needs balancing out to be fun.

Hi SlingBang:

If you visit www.asymgames.com, you can use the game editor to build a better version of the game.

Thanks for your feedback.

Please move the achievements notification out of the playing view, or have them disappear on their own. I woke up this morning and had to click through 20 of them to continue playing!

Also, please allow purchase of people/buildings by Clicking on them, instead of having to move the mouse over to a 'Buy" button.

It's an interesting concept to have assets produce gold once every set time, but waiting as much as 12 hours to get money from the games corp seems a bit crazy! It might be nice to use 'points' to reduce the wait.

On that point, I started the game last night, played for 10 minutes to get to the giraffe, went to bed, woke up and 5 minutes later, I have purchased all 4 animals, and 10 of each of their people/buildings. Great! Now what... It now seem the only option is to 'reset/ascend'. Once I do that I can use 5 points to increase my overall revenue by a small percentage, but that's it. There are no NEW events that happen. No more animals, or buildings to unlock. Only trophies to win. So, unless I just want to make more money, there is no actual point to play longer.

This is unfortunate. I actually liked the game and it actually has a real-world connection (unlike clicker heroes) but if there is nothing new to see, I and perhaps many others, will just stop playing.
I don't know how you could fix this and keep the realism. AAA game company is pretty much the top. Maybe, buy a advertising company or TV station...ending in a moon base! haha. Anyways, good luck. The design and art is excellent.

Nedrago responds:

Thanks for your feedback... We are working in a Big Update We will take all your points.
Thanks a lot really.
