vankook's game Reviews on Newgrounds

[Tophat Villa]

quirky...I liked that

Terrible control. I did NOT Like that. What is the deal with once you get past 4 powerups on your weapon, the weapon is useless and terrible. Since you can only move in 4 directions, the 6th star weapon is essentially useless in the final hallway. Not a problem? Well, not when you can't get to the hallway without getting it first. Uggh. I really wanted to like this game, in all seriousness, it reminded me of Startropics and other odd-off kilter 8 bit NES games, but the bugs are rampant.

1.) Sometimes, your attack goes right through the enemy
2.) sometimes the enemies hit you for one damage, sometimes...the same enemy...hits you for three or four.
3.) Enough with the ads for junk I don't want. late

Great Game

Good atmosphere, engaging plot, appropriate challenge level. Beats any other point and click game on here, hands down.

Average....not great

Compared to other 1st person point and click adventures, this is not the cream of the crop. I did like the concept of introducing an action stage in a sort of homage to Virtua cop, lethal enforcers, area 51. The guys voice made me want to throttle my speakers and I spent so much time distracted by it that I didn't get into the character development or the "Twist" Ending. But the game didn't suck by any means, just some minute, slightly irritating details.

I am such a nerd for this F-ing Game!!!

Totally Rocks my Socks!!! You took two of the most revered classic arcade games of all time and rolled them together, making an entirely new game that is actually BETTER than the sum of it's parts. I am a total Retro/nostalgia gamer and this takes me back to the days of Roller Rinks and Arcades that had machines that cost less than a friggin dollar. It brought me back to the day where you could bring 10$ to the arcade and stay there for a good three-four hours on a saturday. Congratulations. You guys are the kings!!!!

I would have rated it better

But Tyrian's controls were handled by the mouse....that made it much more fluid and waaaaaay easier to fly the ship. Other than that it was fun.

sspecter responds:

Tyrian was controled by mouse, joystick or keyboard. I prefered the keyboard control, but its just my opinion :P

But nice idea to make mouse control

Needs a few touchups

This was good, and I loved this game growing up, but I need to be able to run and jump..other than that it was fine...

adit-ya-sharma responds:

You can run and jump. Keep hold of the run key and jump, simple. Thanks for playing :)

[Battle for Gondor]

fun BUT....

Umm...the level where you get one elf, one dwarf, and one knight....complete overkill...I should be able to go and kill some of the army...there wasn't enough peons for me to raise the funds to send more of the expensive units....blah!

[Dad 'n Me]

welll....

Alright Alright Alright....I've played the damn game four times, and now I swear it off forever. It was really fun up until Sunchips, and the programmer decided to not let me get up and continued shooting me whilst I was on the ground. Now I remember games like this where the bad guys could hit you in mid air and "juggle" you. Mortal Kombat, Streets of Rage...some classic games. Classics, yes...annoying as F to the UCK. Of course...so I swear this game off for good...(At least until it comes onto console...you guys suck =P)

basically...

nothing but collapse with a dinosaur theme...good graphics and playability, but not very original
