Flawed

Flawed because the controls are squirelly and the ship and cursor virtually invisible.

Surpisingly well done

My only critique is that you should break free of the idea that a racing game has to be about getting to the checkpoint within a certain amount of time. After all, this game is free, no quarters needed. Obviously, the arcade designers made the checkpoint system to generate quarter-usage.
So, let's see if we can come up with something else, shall we? What's fun about speed, about speeding? I'm talking something that puts the joy in biking the way that Jet Set Radio put the joy in rollerblading, emphasizing the most fun parts and elminating anything else. I think the most fun things about a motorcycle is accelerating, jumping, maneuvering, doing wheelies or being able to maintain a wheelie.
I think challenge should come not from trying to master turns, but from maneuvering through on-road obstacles. Essentially, you should be able to accelerate to the point that it's virtually uncontrollable, giving the user enough rope to hang himself in a sense. This allows someone to catch up from behind. You should have to shoot between cars. Go off jumps, etc. Could be

Very well done

This is one of the better shooters on NG Excellent art, great play mechanics, everything is extremely smooth, and as with all great free yet good stuff of NG, it's too short to be a real game. This is more like a game-short, like a movie-short, than a game in the full sense. But, having said that, this artist has done an incredible job, and the whole thing has a very high production value. I'm quite impressed!!!

not bad

There is an actionscript command to determine where the curso begins. Knowing a little bit about programming, it was easy to see how you were using the hit detection and get through the mazes pretty easy. It was real fun to memorize where the ends of the mazes were after playing through a few times and simply move my mouse there before clicking through to the next level, you might want to fix that. Level 10 wasn't that hard either, seems like I start very close to the end, maybe that's a glitch somehow? I didn't move my mouse, but I was right next to it, well pretty close, past like half the maze, and I beat it, but there was no congrats screen??? What's up with that??? You gotta give me some end-screen, it just went to the explanation screen, which was strange... Other than that, good job, I know how hard it can be to make something like this. You might want to start using the vector drawing tools to draw your the boundary graphix and make it look much more professional. How about some explosion sounds if you hit the wall, check findsound(dot)com.

If you dont cheat, which you might of on accident the way it sounds like, (lol), is probably why. I did make one. Thanks.

Wow

Very original, a truly new genre!!! High points because it is so original, though any game after this like this would have to pass a much higher bar ;P

Pretty nice

I liked it! Especially the 3d'ness. Though I'd really like to find a source of information for how you did the 3D graphics. Is there like a tutorial or book you used to make it like that? I'm pretty sure you do it by importing 3d models, right? Or is there a program that is used to make 3D, or is it a flash plugin? I'd really like to know, thanx!

Mephy responds:

If you need to know... IT'S THE ONLY PROGRAM IN FLASH THAT DOES 3D, BABY!!! I'M TAWKIN BOUT <<<SWIFT 3D>>>!!!!!!

Have to slam ya...

Graphics were really good, like an arcade game. I think though that the parallax scrolling should be way more obvious, it almost didn't seem there and the effect was lost, imo.

Apart from that, I am giving you a really low overall score, much lower than your work truly deserves, because of your anti-corporation bigotry and the placing of such messages in your game. It is simply wrong to demonize corporations whose sole goal in life is to serve the public, and can only make a profit by giving the people what they want and doing what is right by people.

Before you buy into such ridiculous notions of corporations being the enemy, try getting an education in economics and economic history (i'm an economics student myself). Corporations have become the scapegoat of the left, and the left is demonizing them in a similar way the Nazi's did the Jews.

Excellent

All the MiniClip stuff is great. I say enough with the Bush bashing of the previous reviewer. Bush has been an excellent president and I trust him with another go at the White House. If anyone's in bed with special-interests it's John Kerry, after all he sleeps with Big Ketchup every night.

But seriously, cool game, loved Ultimate Snake, can't wait to see your next work.

broken?

Is it just me, cause when I clicked the crystal ball... nothing happened. I had to right click and hit 'forward' just to see some terms. So, the fact that you submitted a broken Flash seems pretty lame to me.

eddiebalin responds:

Yes, it's just you.

PS yur gay

This is totally Anti-Blam

Speaking as a long time Snake-game afficianado and conoisseur, I can say without a doubt that this is the greatest snake game that has ever existed, and I absolutely love it. THANK YOU! Perfect 10's all the way around, A++, 5.1 score. You rock!

'Sup, just kickin it at NG.
