John12346's game Reviews on Newgrounds

[Stable Boy]

I'm quite stuck at 74% too... unsure how to get my second hand dirty, how to get a fishing pole, what "lucky" event happened, what the deal with the butterfly is, and how to access the dry grass and cucumbers... any tips?

That aside, this is still quite a good game. No real glitches or bugs to be had, and the control is pretty tight. Good stuff.

LonLonRanch responds:

Yes all of that is coming from the same place, instead of getting the 'bow' you need to get the 'pole'. The Bow Master and Pole Master both use the stick and string to make their item, if you get the pole instead of the bow you can end up doing many more things in the game. Thanks for the kind review!

[Twilight Blocks]

I love these games!

It takes almost no effort whatsoever to play, and it's really fun!

Ways to improve:
1. Add music.

LTcolor responds:

Will do John. Soon I should be doing that. Thanks for the input.

[The Expert's Guide - NG 2]

Hmm...

Doesn't seem too different from the first one, but it's still pretty nice. Anyway, keep up the good work.

Ways to improve:
1. When I click the back button, it takes me to the previous menu. You should put in a button that takes you back to the last information screen as well.
2. On your 'is your movie eligible for an award' game, I used my movie with a score of 3.52 and a review score of 7.75 and it said I was eligible for Turd of the Week?!?!? WTF?!?

Thanks.

[VG Trivia Challenge]

Yay! It looks good!

I'm glad to be a co-author for this game.

There were many many nooks and crannies in the game that made it very enjoyable, so I voted 5.

Ways to improve:
1. I went on a glitch hunt before the game's release, so none.

Hey- thanks for your help with the animations! And the review :D

Lolz you suck.

You don't even know how to remove the white backgrounds from behind the sprites and pictures! That instantly puts your flash at the bottom of my list.

Ways to improve:
1. Use better music.
2. Learn how to get rid of the white backgrounds from the pictures.
3. Don't make it so that you have to start over if you lose; make a scorekeeper.

I suppose if someone submitted a flash 4 times in a row with little alteration(questions, an extra bonus at end; it's really not much), I suppose eventually one would get in.

Mugs242 responds:

k! =)

[Who wants to be a VG mil?]

AWESOME!

I love your use of actionscript in games and how you use them properly. I mean, seriously, all I know is square old scene select buttons, remote-control buttons (pause, play) and drag 'n drop games.

Nice usage of songs; they were awesome.

Ways to improve:
1. Possibly use your graphics in a better fashion. When I play your games, I get the idea I'm playing with a game on a piece of cardboard with paper background cutout graphics.

2. You should take out the high score table. Games with a maximum score don't need a high score table.

jogo52793 responds:

Thanks for the review. I feel that the high score board is a good way to get people involved in the game.

thanks for the reivew.

One Big Problem

Frontpage mode ends after I catch 10 votes.

It's good, though.

INeedABetterAlias responds:

I just realized that. I left it in for debugging, so I wouldn't have to play all the way through to test stuff out. It's been fixed.
