[VVVVVV Demo]

Fantastic!

$15? Hell yes I'm buying this! It'd be awesome if you ported this as an XBLA or PSN release too. A game like this deserves some exposure! Cool graphical style, amazing music, challenging but fair gameplay... big name developers should play this and take notes.

[Flash-DooM 2D]

Very fun.

The most impressive thing about this game to me is the level design. You know your action/platformers and it shows. Any complaints I have are just nitpicks really. The Cacodemon keeps firing at you even when you're filling it with chaingun fire (which most of the time stops it from firing in the original) but other than that if a weapon worked well against a certain monster in Doom then it works well here. Also *spoiler alert* The Spiderdemon walked right through the door for me, forcing me to just spam him with BFG fire. Luckily I had enough health to do so. It'd be nice if there were more boss fights... the way you've set up the Cyberdemon fights is really fun but it makes me want more. See? All nitpicks. Great game. Highly recommended to anyone who has ever enjoyed Doom or old PC sidescrolling shooters like Duke Nukem 2. Sequel maybe?

[Create a Madness Scene!]

Others should take note...

Unlike most "create a scene" style Flashes, this one lets you put on as many of the same object as you want as opposed to limiting you to one or two of each. That means that for once anyone can truly make whatever scene their minds can come up with. Anyone else thinking of designing a "create a scene" game should take note.

flash-man04 responds:

Thanks, theres actually only 5 of each object but i'm sure that enough!

Addicting

Do you have any idea how much of my time you've stolen? This is extremely addicting. A true case of substance over style. Great design... and being that I'm on a 56k I love the small filesize. At first I was thinking that it needs music, but I'd rather the filesize stayed small and I could just play my own music. In closing, I'm addicted.

[Trapped 4]

fun stuff

The design of the puzzles is freaking great! My favorite was the puzzle at the end where you had to push one block into one little space... it looks so simple at first and then you realize that you have to... well I won't spoil it for anyone else but if you know what I'm talking about from that vague description, there should be more puzzles like that one in the next one. Meeting the blue guy and talking about how you're both lost in there reminded me of the movie Cube... adding more stoy for the next one would be awesome. But then again, the meat of it all is in the puzzles, so focus on that first. I'll be looking forward to the next one for sure.

[The Suicide Bomber Game]

Woohoo!

Suicide bombing is obviously not funny... but this is. I can't tell you how much I laughed the first time I blew myself up and took out a small crowd around me. However twisted that sounds. I can't wait for the finished version, this is great stuff. Don't let anyone stop you, even if for some reason Newgrounds takes it off the site, put it up on your own site. I'm gonna stop typing now so that I can blow myself up some more (in the game that is).

[NBA Career Version 2.0]

More

More stuff needs to happen, but its an interesting concept.
