Zanzlanz's game Reviews on Newgrounds

[Virtual Piano]

Pretty classic

It's not terrible, but there could be many ways to improve.

It can be very fun to play around with music. I think people will enjoy fooling around with it. But I definitely recommend adding maybe different sounds (you'd probably have to rewrite the entire program), keyboard note (like you said), metronome, and volume slider.

LUK4IS responds:

I'll keep that in mind for the next version.

[What is Success?]

Concept

I like the concept a lot, but it needs to be finished.
The beginning was deep and meaningful, but at the end, I really did want to escape.

You need something that brings the players back to play again.

Now focus on the concept, and try to make the game more... epic if you will :)

viewtifulday responds:

Well, the whole goal of the game is to escape--going through the levels is pointless, because you can press the Escape key from the very beginning. It's just meant to make you think a little differently about your goals-- you get to choose them after all.

Overall good, but needs more work

Good game, Gdverde!

First of all, here's a list of things you might consider adding:
- collectables
- achievements
- difficulty
- upgrades

Other notes:
- I liked some of the options in the main screen, like the random mode.
I don't think 3 player is really necessary, but it doesn't matter really!
- I do like the music a lot, it's very fancy!
- Another thing, the second player's controls should be A and D instead of A and S, but it's good enough!
- The thing I liked the best is that it was very well put together. Other games may have many glitches that ruin the game, but yours seems for the most part, fine.
- The font should have been exported with the flash; the score and lives show up as Arial for most of us. I have a video on YouTube that shows you how to do it properly: youtu.be/BnlapZgPSP0
- A small bug is that the ships don't disappear right after you die. It doesn't really matter much but it makes it seem less professional.
- And lastly, I think the shooting sound could have been improved.

All in all, it's a good game, but needs some work and improvements!

Gdverde responds:

Thanks! Because of some reason, every time I try to upgrade my game I have to erase it and post it again.

[Chased By Monsters]

Nice work!

I like it.

- Clever idea
- Not one of those "Easy" game - this was actually challenging
- Fun!
- Like the small details - Background, darkness, ect
- Level selector
- Simplicity

But what I didn't like so much was

- I'm confused about the squirt bottle?
- I think the mosters should change every level.
- More/Cool collectables
- It's missing something.

But again, nice work!

JasonPKaplan responds:

Ooh. Yeah, changing the collectibles and monsters every level would have been much more interesting, agreed. It didn't get any treatment like that because it was a jam game, but that's a good lesson for the next game; thanks! It does, unfortunately, mean more art, and I'm really not much of an artist... :P

The squirt bottles are pretty random, agreed. It doesn't really matter what they are to the gameplay, though. I'm glad you enjoyed it! Thanks for commenting.

[Minecraft Flash! (test)]

Naw, I don't like it.

I do like how it does have some complex elements involved, but honestly it's not the best. Why is the creeper randomly flying around the screen, LOL?

I know you could do better. Give it another go!

SlaxerNG responds:

I feel intimidated... >_>

[Galaga REBORN]

Simple and fun

It has a great concept, easy to understand, and works great!
Though it was simple, and has features similar to existing games, it still has a neat feel to it.
Good job! :)

TheJonn responds:

Thanks!
