Cheesius's game Reviews on Newgrounds

[Sonic Blox]

Cool, nicely done

It's a cool little game, although I was kind of hoping for something a bit more original than tetris. You may have mentioned that it's tetris in your description - I don't know, because a freaking ad banner popped up over your description, and refused to go away. Very very annoying. Anyway, it's nicely made. Good job.

[Fatfish - Wormcatcher]

I tried to play to a hundred worms, but....

Man, if I played as long as it would take to get a hundred worms, I would be even more sick of the game than I am. Eh... A key to change music would have been nice, preferably something close to the arrow keys or numberpad (since I use the numberpad for arrow keys usually). Grabbing the mouse to change music is surefire way to DIE. The graphics are great, the gameplay, however, is very very very much like a dozen other games I've seen... All have different themes, of course, but it's still basically the same game. I'd have kept playing, but I was sick of the music... And the game, too. It just gets old after a few minutes. Nice graphics, smooth animation, the game just gets boring.

[The Presidential Race]

Eh.

The computer gets a bit of an advantage because you have to have your hand on the mouse when the game starts, so it gets a head start.

I lost on the second state on my first race... Then I got into the swing of things, and won pretty easily. Of course, I have a split "ergonomic" keyboard, so my g and h keys are pretty far apart. I think if I was on a normal keyboard, I'd have a disadvantage.

The Kerry impression isn't bad, but the bush impression - Well, it's the right attitude, but the voice is wrong.

[Gerbil Jump]

Awexome Cross, anyone?

This game is a bit too much like Awexome Cross for my tastes - It's possible you've never played awexome cross, but still... Very similar.

Anyway, not bad. Just... not completely original.

[T-bot Beta]

Wow, not bad. It could still use something, tho

It's loading... Woohoo... It's loading. This is a strange habit I have sometimes - I'll start writing the review before the movie/game has finished loading. Heck, it gives me something to do. No worries - I won't actually start reviewing it until I've seen it, but -- Oh, it's done loading. I'mmah play it now.

Hey, not bad! I played all the way through. I'd say a couple of things.

Firstly, the game lags a bit, and I've got a reasonably fast machine here - I had to drop the quality to low to get it to not lag when there were more than one laser on the screen.

Secondly - Nice animation and graphics! I like them. Good work.

Thirdly - It's bloody annoying when you fall off the edge. I couldn't figure out what to do from there. I think that should outright kill you, or there should be a way out when you've fallen down. Maybe there is, and I just didn't see it.

Fourthly - In general, the game is a bit boring. Dodging the lasers is all well and good, but it's pretty limited. There maybe should be more stuff to jump over (land mines, perhaps? Running robot bugs?), a duck option, to duck flying projectiles or something, etcetera. I kind of like the fact that you don't go out to blow stuff away, but at the same time, it would add more interest if you did have to shoot something... Anyway, its too easy. I got through the game pretty easily on my first try, once I figured out how to play it.

Ooh, that's something that would be handy - so

Fifthly - a button you can press that would pop up a reference card for how to play - stuff like "press down at an exit to exit" and "press shift to freeze time". Yeah.

Sixthly - It would be nice if you had some sort of visual cue that you were being damaged, other than the meter counting down - like your body glows green, or something.

This is far from sucking. I could see this being a great game with some more work. Good job, please keep working on it!.

[squares game]

Absolutely the best flash under 15k that I've seen

Wow, great job! It's very simple, and I'd love it more if it had some sound effects, little ones... blips would be appropriate, perhaps an ambient sound. Anyway, even without the sound effects, it's a good game. I've seen other similar games, but none quite like this. And to make a great, simple game under 15k is the best of all. Good job!

[Clean your room!]

That's pretty cool. Some suggestions.

I'd love to see an animated intro, showing the mom yelling, the closet getting stuffed, and exploding. That'd be cool.

I've seen games with similar gameplay before, but this one has an original "room cleaning" twist to it. Cool. I'd love it if the score and timer were larger, easier to spot right away, easier to read at a glance.

More music would be nice... Different music for different levels, perhaps.

OVerall, it's a good solid game. It's not getting blammed, that's for sure. You could make it better and more solid, though.

Last comment - I don't even wanna think about cleaning that box out later. Old socks, mixed with pizza, books, hats and footballs (this guy has a hell of a football collection, by the way - MAN that's a lot of footballs - most people only have one or two, if that)... All of which has been BLOWN UP several times. That box is full of a disgusting mess. Ew.

[Interactive HillBilly]

Very entertaining.

Nicely animated, lots of fun. I would have liked it more if you could click specific areas to do specific things - having it completely random was a bit irritating at times.

Still, nice work.

[SBC - Collect All B's!]

Hmm. You could have done better on this`

So far, my score is 4617.

A bit more work is needed. I like it visually, and the gameplay is all right, but I can't figure out how to lose. Not only that, there's a heck of a glitch.

My score is now up to 5479.

Basically, if you wander off the bottom of the screen, Strawberry Clock changes into a big black Game Over! sprite.

Score: 6702

Then you can walk back onto the screen - with your new giant black spriteyness...

Score: 7632

... which basially allows you to be on the B's constantly.

Score: 8263

So.. It kind of fails to be a game at that point.

Also, your music fails to loop.

8873

It would be nice if there was some noise when you were collecting the B's... Maybe a life-force that depletes when you're not on a B? I dunno.

Ok, this is getting old. I'm gonna stop now. But it's a fun beginning to a game, I'd love to see you do some more work on this.
