LordXanthus's game Reviews on Newgrounds

[Nene Interactive Suicide]

YEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEESSSSS!!!

I fucking loved this one! The ceiling fan, the razor, the praying to God! It's... *sniff* so... beautiful! Thank you so much for restoring my depraved youth!

[Murloc RPG]

Perhaps the most amazing Flash game I've ever seen

I am awestruck. Granted, this game isn't too far out from the standard RPG format, but I've never seen it done so efficiently in Flash! The storyline was quite entertaining, and I've always loved Murlocs. The variety of abilities and locations in this game certainly kept me busy for a while! Excellent work.

[The 16-Bit Wizard]

Great quiz, but...

...Allow a Sony fan to set the record straight for you. The Playstation had precious little to do with Philips. Nintendo was actually working with the Sony corporation in 1988 to develop the "Nintendo Playstation." Sony offered a lot of technical assistance in the development of what was going to be a revolutionary CD Rom-based addition to the Super Nintendo.

However, in 1991, Nintendo made the mistake of stabbing Sony in the back by developing a new CD gaming system with Philips. Not ones to take this lying down, Sony decided to push forward using the original Playstation design they had created with Nintendo. Nintendo wasn't using it, after all.

In fact, if you open up an old Super Nintendo, you will notice Sony parts inside of it, such as the sound system. Nintendo should take full responsiblity for their current console failures, for turning their backs on a business partner.

Great quiz, though. Full of memories.

MajinPiccolo responds:

Very interesting, thanks for that. Didn't know that, I was under the impression Nintendo made a deal with Sony for a CD-Addon and Sony left to make their own system.

[Feed Lindsay!]

Yes! You're back!

What a grand day this is! This isn't a bad game, and the concept is great! I agree with some of the other reviewers that a morphing effect would be nice, but this is sweet anyway. Now stick around, and show these kids how it's done!

[Katamari Flash]

Not bad.

This looks like it took a lot of work, so I must apologize for being such a critic, but there is much room for improvement here. There's the lag, for one thing. There are also some gameplay issues. It would be nice if the Katamari were to crash into the larger objects, and as much as I hate them, a time limit might help. It's fun, but there's virtually no challenge here. In any case, nice work. I gave it a 4.

Foreverkul responds:

Nice review, I hope you will enjoy my future games :D

[Sheep go to Heaven...]

Now THAT's how you make an addictive game!

I love this game! It's simple, yet overwhelmingly addictive. I love a good mouse shooter, and the whole salvation/damnation mechanic made it even more fun! It can get really frantic in the later levels. I find it hard to resist the temptation to damn all the sheep!

I do have one bitch, though. When the game speeds up, the sheep and goats become harder to catch, and not because they're moving too fast, either. I was clicking right on them, and nothing was happening. Yes, I have Flash Player 8, so it's a flaw in the game itself.

Anyway, this is a great game you have here. Hopefully, I'll see more from you in the future.

BoMToons responds:

Thanks for the great review, I haven't been able to track down the mouse bug, probably cuz I can't get past wave 13. :)

[Jack Russell]

Not bad.

This isn't a bad game you have here, but it isn't great. I did enjoy drawing a path for the dog, but the gameplay seemed flawed at a few points.

- It was upsetting to have the dog fall through the pathways (I know, you covered that in the instructions, but it still needs to be fixed).

- The dog was far to quick to change direction when the path was a little steep.

-Why couldn't you include a play mechanic that allows you to erase pathways? That little bastard dog is so touchy, you never know what's going to kill him, or send him in the wrong direction.

It's decent, but I hope you try harder next time.

[gogo Happy & Smile]

We've got another Flash God on our hands!

It's a damned shame you have trouble with English. I hope you have a translator who will let you know how great you are! This game is pure excellence. It is everything a Flash game should be. Your animation is superb, and the music and sound effects are great. The game is horrifically challenging, exactly the way a game should be. Newgrounds shall sing of your Flash genius for ages to come!

[supersoldier]

Excellent sidescroller!

You two have made an excellent game here. Dan Paladin's animation is always a treat, and Glaiel is a fantastic game programmer. The gameplay is solid, but I do have a couple of complaints:

-There's a considerable amount of lag in areas of high activity.
-You cannot aim the gun while walking, which gives the choppers an unfair advantage.

Aside from that, it is an excellent game, and very fun to play. It was amusing to see those little bubbles being used to blow shit up! Nice work, guys.

[BulletTime]

Excellent reflex game, very intense!

I love this game. It gets pretty intense, waiting for the shot. The animation is simple, and there aren't many sound effects, but none of that was necessary to make this a great game. Congratulations on this addictive, nerve-racking game.
