[Bubbles 2]

kind of simple

not that a flash game needs to be complex, but a lot of stuff was really simple. Like the repel mines powerup, it just affected them horizontally. Beside that the whole game could've been much better if you worked a bit more on the engine itself, make stuff react to each other, in stead of just moving mines, power ups and bubbles, and some collision checking. The only thing that made me vote 4 was the really funny, cheesy 'blob' when you died. That made me laugh ^^

HeRetiK responds:

Actually the repel mines works both on the x and y axis, using an inverted gravity formula ;)

[Toast of War]

nice game

one of the few I've taken time to complete. Why did you upload it without the boss? Updating the file can be a pain since it has to be seen by admins once it reaches a certain no of views. The game was funny. The gameplay wasn't superb but I guess you made me play the whole game so can't complain :)

sinaiman responds:

Hey,I'm glad you took the time to play the whole game :) We've actually been working all morning trying to get everything ready to get updated before we get 5,000 views so the update can be quick. The absence of the boss is due to the fact that we had a deadline to submit the game, and we figured it was better to at least submit the game and then update than to submit late and may be penalized for being late.

I'm glad you enjoyed it though :)

nice selection of turrets! Not too original though, but a good game. I kept playing just to see all of the different cannons.

rstein responds:

Thanks for your comment.

[Holgate Hammers]

the idea is nice

but it's all very fake. Also, most stuff I saw wasn't really painful. The thing in the extra's where a guy holds his fingers in a cd player was 1: fake and 2: that doesn't hurt at all

ottermaniac responds:

James was kinda pissed off at the glove thing as it was unplanned, and it actually fucked his eyes up for a good ten minutes :P

[schoffie-animated writer]

pretty nice

you deserve much more than 2s, but then again make it english when you submit on an english site. The flash is quite nice. Nice effects on those letters.

Soelen responds:

oh, you mean the buttons? Argh, forgot that :P Sorry, I'll translate that oneday if I'll find time XD Thanks for saying that :D Yah, I like these effects too (stars combined with the sinus function XD) Thanks buddy :D Wheeeeeeeeeeee

[HangAman]

nice!

I always love to see ragdoll physics. nice work! Why don't you make a full game with the ragdoll stuff instead of just using it as an extra thing in a (not really fun) game like hangman?

VinceA responds:

I actually am working on a full scale physics-game, but it still has 1 to 2 more months to go. Thanks for the review; it’s so cool that you guys/gals took/take the time… :)

[Atomic Bonding]

ok pretty nice.. but a fatal flaw:
H2O does NOT contain 2 Oxygen atoms, it contains 2 hydrogen and 1 oxigen. H2-O or H-O-H
also, it didn't tell anything about making a atom bomb. You should study on that a little bit.. It's pretty interesting.
also, you told about a Ion being unstable and thus radioactive.. Ions don't usually make radiation. It's atoms that are unstable in the CORE. when the core has more neutrons than protons, some of the neutrons will become protons and emit a electron to do so (neutron = proton + electron)
well anyways enougn chemistry for today.
btw Nice music :D

Ansel responds:

WELL, SHIT. i feel REALLY GAY NOW. can't believe i jacked that up... 2 oxygen, one hydrogen. no WONDER it wasn't adding up right. i'll fix that. god, i feel like an idiot. also, thanks for the tip about radioactivity.

[Cursor Mayhem]

too bad

this could've been pretty good. You had some pretty original levels.. Too bad you didn't make some kind of checkpoint thing. I think most people will stop after a few deaths, just like me. Also, you can cheat by pressing the right mouse button. Fix that.

Penboy responds:

You can't get rid of the right-click menu sadly ): But thats for pointing out the checkpoint idea :D

[Optical Illusions Test]

it wasn't yours

It wasn't yours, so no points for graphics & style, sound sucked, but the turn off button was present, so no problem,

but it's nice to have a compilation of this stuff here, it probab;y took you some time to make that. So not a bad submission overall.

Seandadj responds:

uhh thanks i guess lol :P

[Paths 2]

no, I'm sorry, very nice but very very unoriginal, there are tons of games like this and for some reason (you are known here) this one makes it to the front page. Graphics weren't special, sound was pretty good though

Glaiel-Gamer responds:

name 1 other game like this that isn't the prequel
