JuneKar's game Reviews on Newgrounds

[The Guardian: RPG]

Some Ideas . . . sorry many ideas

Firstly I wanted to say that I did sort of like this game. It was a bit slow especially at night but overall not bad, I like the idea for the final boss too.

Here are my ideas for improvements, not really in any order.

1. Correct the spelling mistake in the title. It should be hero's not heroes if you are going to use it again.
2. The number of Rubeesin the mailbox is wrong, it says 20 but you get 15.
3. Scrap the day and night concept. It's a good idea but it just makes you go slower and gets annoying as it moves to quickly.
4. The cursor thing in shops is a bit annoying seeing as evertyhing else is done by keyboard and you have to move the cursor over the thing you want to buy.
5. To be able to attack whilst moving would be a definate improvement.
6. Change the currency . seriously it's obviously based on Zelda but theres no need to shove it in out face with the rubees, if your going to do that we might as well be trying to save a prince called Velda.
(to all zelda fan's it was a joke and I do know the princess is zelda, I'm a big fan)
7. On this note don't include sailing in the next one. Unless your gonna make a completely new experience it's just gonna be another thing you've got from zelda and phantom hourglass was too awesome to be copied.
8.It's a bit buggy with the blacksmith apparating (HarryPotter) to his workstation rather than walking and getting stuck in walls occasionally.
9. Add a Save feature if it's going to be a longer quest it really helps.
10. Keep the animation for the sequel I like RPG which is mainly a Zelda copy.
11. Really annoying starting at your house when you die. Funnily enough I think you should be more like Zelda here by starting outside the dungeon.
12. If your going to have a potions shop have some potions in it. Whats the point of getting money from pots and monsters if there is nothing useful to buy.

Sorry for so many suggestions but it really is constructive I hope. If you want to ask anything or want any help or even voice acting if you feel like it.

Love JuneKar

Meh

It was ok, Way too easy. The main problem was that any puzzles that involved switches it was always the first ones you went for that worked. The speed ones were easy and the only hard one was in the cake level called "so close yet so far" that one at least took some figuring out.
Good graphics though and a nice idea.

Trippy Stuff

It was amazing I just couldn't keep up, didn't get very far but still loved it!

[Killego]

Extremely Clever

Love this game. It's very short but that is to be expected with stop motion animation. Love the ending too :)

xLite responds:

Thanks :D

Amazing

I have to admit that I am not good at this game but I still love it. The idea, the animation, the programming is brilliant.

So many games on here are the same thing reworked but this really is something new. Congrats

Good Concept

Good concept, I really love the idea but it just isn't working. The upgrades are too expensive for how many coins you can collect from each wave because you move too slow and shoot to slow. The first enemies you meet take to shots to kill and shields are introduced by level 2. It's just to hard.
Suggested improvements
1.) speed up robot
2.) speed up shooting ( also in the same vien you could add an upgrade to increase fire rate)
3.) decrease cost of upgrades or increase money dropped ( this might be fixed by speeding the robot up)
4. mabye make harder enemies give more money ( sorry if you did this, i only got to stage 3 so i wouldn't know)

sorry about the critisism but i'm trying to help, it could be a brilliant game and the artwork is really cool. Plus keep the achievment thing, Newgrounds loves acievements !

I liked it

It was pretty easy because you didn't select which item you where using you just held one at a time but i liked it. The music made it pretty creepy to be honest the stuff in the basement and cell was made scary because of it really but still very good.

JunkYardAnimations responds:

hehe awesome. the music really adds to it for sure, im glad i found those songs

[Z-Rox]

Fantastic

A properly inovative new game. Really really original I loved it.
I got up to Level 11 and couldn't work out what it was at all. Really great.

[fat boy's money crazy]

Some Points

At the moment its pretty much a game of luck not skill. there are too many coins on the screen at once and the "fat boy" although part of the story is to big to be manouvered easily to collect maximum coins.

The coins are also very small and completly the wrong colour for the screen, this makes them very hard to see. I suggest changing the background to something darker.

I agree with the guy below me as well that so many people have already made a game of this type, you need something to make yours different than everone elses, mabye some powerups such as those in blockbreaker games or a reward based levelling up system. with upgrades that can be bought with money collected.

Hope this helps a little.
