Kianis's game Reviews on Newgrounds

[Thing-Thing]

Artbased games are never good, sorry.

When you got more submissions then you're years old, somethings wrong. When you got 20+ submissions and still haven't learned the most basic stuff, somethings wrong. If I had a dime for every time I've said this: You've commited the number one flashn00b misstake :( Your HUD, it has selectable text. Nothing makes a game look more unprofessional. Even so, the text inside it is sometimes so big it won't fit and all you'll see is half the text (vertically).
To be honest I only played the first few levels of your game. One of the biggest problems was that is suffers from bad collision detection (because it's artbased), it generally fucks up the heros movement in a game where movement is crucial (about that, the AI was really poorly executed, there was no way you could really avoid being hit, so what it boiled down to was a click-as-fast-as-you-can-game). I suggest you grasp the concept of tiles (google for Tonypa's tutorials) and avoid hitTesting. Good luck on improving ;)

The ultimate flashplatformer? >:O

This game is just another production of a newbie with hybris.
'The ultimate flashplatfomer' you wrote? Well, have you ever heard of TILES? Artbased games are for newbies who doesn't get the concept of tiles, IMHO. Have you ever played sylvaniah(.com)? Now THAT's a platformer. Seriously, if you want to learn how to make quality games - first you have to understand the concept of tilebased games. Rasterize your graphics, it will run so much smoother. Also, get a good artist; program your game first and then when you got a sweet engine it's not that hard to attract talented artists. Good luck on improving ;)

bice

buggy, ugly and could be thrown together by anyone in a few minutes..
saying that, it still beats your other flashes.

I'm dissapointed

I used to really love the trapped series but now a two or three (?) years later when I see this I'm extremly dissapointed to see that you haven't advanced a bit. Such a game like this could be thrown together in a few days easily - I could do it, but when I used to play trapped one and two I barely knew what an array was. I mean come on - there isn't even a pathfinder in there! (!) :O Even so your maps are very small so the enemies could be a lot smarter using some really cheap tricks.
The ParagonX9 music is good but gets repetive.
Truthfully I didn't finish the game since it was too much of a treadmill, might be the bosses are good or there's something inovative in there but I the end I'm still horribly dissapointed, Matt :(

Fett fett GRYMT grabbar!

Shit! ÄKTA coola spelet! Hahahahha!
Längtar efter fortsättning. Inte så farligt med buggar änsålänge förrutom lite engelska lite då å då.(Kanske ska va så)

Ni har verkligen lyckats att fånga hur busschufförenrna är i Sverige! =D (Dom flesta i alla fall!)

Hursomhelst var spelet jävligt tufft! Jag håller själv på med ett likanande spel med där man styr gubben med piltagenterna i 3d. Skulle va jävligt stolt över mig själv om de skulle bli lika bra som det här spelet!

Härligt grabbar! Tappa inte lusten! (Hm, har typ själv 100 halvfärdiga spel, hehe)

raitendo responds:

Faktum är att Egon Nelson (en busschafför i spelet) är en riktig busschafför och han blir sur för det minsta. Så han är av ekta vara.

[Xiao Xiao No. 4]
