Dynamite Blast

"Very good game"

submission: Dynamite Blast
date: December 17, 2009

But many bugs.

I got to level 10, but unfortunately a lot of the time this level was quite variable.

I eventually after about three tries got an instance where the biker actually managed not to fall off, or get stuck on the train below, or somehow manage to miss the first jump/. Even made it to the end. But unfortunately I was sat there for ages wondering why the 'level success' screen hadn't came up yet.

The answer is simple. The biker had picked up too much momentum, and didn't stop at EXACTLY the right point for the game to register a success. Calmly I exited the flash plug in, and began writing this review.

I don't think I need to write much more though. My main point has already been illustrated, and that is, 'tighten the game up a bit'.

"I'd probably have gotten past level 30"

submission: Arcanorum
date: December 16, 2009

But the game was too slow.

The time slowing button didn't seem to work for me. Not that it mattered, the lag was so bad I didn't seem to have to activate it manually.

Perhaps when the enemies die, they should just disappear? That would help with the atrocious lag. I loved the fighting system, but it just wasn't as dynamic when the enemies, and me for that matter, seemed to move at the rate of a tortoise with diabetes.

Also, in between each fight in survival, can you please make the game stop slowing? I know its supposed to do that, but half the time it feels like it isn't going to wake up again. Also, I like to practice my movements - double knife is hard to get the hang of.

I may also think it noteworthy that while I wrote this review, I left the game on survival, and seem to have beaten two rounds without trying, yet still having half health.

So, the plus side +

Good fighting system
Interesting, if crude, plot
Has some Elder Scrolls IV references in there
Good music

And the down side -

Bad lag.
Game slows between each round
Bad lag
Horrible grammar and sentence structure
BUGS such as the 'shit, you're dying' music carrying on into the menu screen
BAD LAAAAAG

"Very Difficult"

date: December 16, 2009

I found a lot of controls difficult, but not in the, 'that's a nice challenge' type of difficult, more of a 'that's a real pain in the ass I might stop playing' kind of difficult.

And as the person below me stated, in the second world (forget which level) I managed to jump to the left of a large chasm, not make the ledge, slide down the wall, and then teleport to the top once I hit the overhang.

Loved the music, the style, and the feel, but the controls irritated me. At the start, if I missed one jump, one SINGLE jump, I'd have to restart to get a reasonable score. But eventually, after awhile, I began to pick it up, and focus solely on it, and managed to spot a few of the intentional traps set along the way.

A game, not only of timing and reflex, but also of intelligence, perception and concentration.

Coburn - NEDM Remastered

"Hmm"

date: May 30, 2009

This one is mainly quite good, if not better than the orginial NEDM, but the main problem is I thought it a bit too static.

If it flowed better, it would have been given a much higher rating. Particularly near the start it could have been better.

I didn't really get the stuff around 1:20, it didn't really make much sense to me. It was a bit too far from the orginial there for me.

In its own right, its a good song, if a bit static and unflowing in places, but as a remake of NEDM, it varies far too much from the orginial.

Certainly a lot better than most of the other crap on the NG Audio Portal.

Author's Response:

This actually started off as a remix of the original Coburn song (which had a remix, which then became NEDM), so a lot of the staticness is either already from the samples, or added in there personally to keep with the original.
So, It's not really a remake of NEDM, It's a remake of We Interrupt This Programme, with a few NEDM elements tossed in.

Oh, And the stuff at 1:20 is from the original song as well.

Thanks for the review!

Knockin'OnHeavensDoor <live>

"Hmm"

date: May 9, 2009

Alright cover song.

You need to fix that whine in the background however, it completely ruins the song.

I think the instrumental is fine though, you hit the notes alright, but the guitar solo could have been better. As it is a good song you are covering, you will be measured by how you mark up to it, so cover songs are often difficult.

Your vocals are good, and you have a lot of potential for live recordings.

Good luck with that in the future.

Author's Response:

Yeah, thanks.

A couple months later (in May to be precise), we had appeared in another concert and played Civil War also by GN'R. Then in June, we again appeared in a rock concert (this time showing other rock bands, singers, and the school jazz band) and played our first 3 songs (Sweet Child O' Mine, Knockin' On Heaven's Door, and Civil War; all three done by of course GN'R) plus our newest addition You Shook Me All Night Long by AC/DC. Both concerts were not recorded, or at least I thought so.

Thanks for the advice anyway!

"Ppopfs"

submission: Black Jack-IDK

AAAAA

I'm getting tired with all this reviewing.

I like this one. It has a calming effect on me. It makes me think of Hawaii or some other such place.

This is one of those rare occurences where inconsistency worked quite well. Mordern music mixed well with the primitive precussion in a way I've seen before, but not particularly often.

All of your songs are very lengthy, which I like. It keeps it varied and interesting. To think I wasn't going to bother reviewing this one.

It has a very relaxed rhythm, and its starting to rub off on me. I think I'll stop typing now.
