Actionsquid's game Reviews on Newgrounds

[Sketchbook]

Write a bad review? For what contrive reason?

Aw, poor wittle peeps didn't get to pway a game... For crying out loud, is that a reason to give a 0!? Ugh... You should all be ashamed of yourselves.

At any rate, I would like to say that you are one hell of an artist. I am thoroughly impressed! It was neat to see the connections between these sketches and your games.

Love it!

I've acquired all the achievements, and had a blast doing it (no pun intended)! What I like is the variety of weapons and their different applications. Artifact 19 is a good bonus, and I actually like how the ammo drain is consistent despite the amount of people it zaps; it's great for later in the game. Duel wielding was a great idea, character customization is great, and the executions are amazingly brutal. Overall, one of the most addicting, action-packed games on Newgrounds.

Ever so frustrating

The level before the boss is too annoying for me. It's one thing to be challenging, it's another to be overly difficult or frustrating. the whole crossing the gap on a wrecking ball is the worst part. Like in HALO, you can take advantage of a pseudo glitch on The Silent Cartographer, taking the warthog where it does not belong. It os not part of the game, but it works. you don't make it a requirement. I feel that is what has been done with this game. I could only cross that gap by jumping on the wrecking ball while it's low, jumping right before it peaks so that I land on it again, then jumping a third time to the maximum distance, worried that I might overshoot though often coming up short. I therefore had no HP left enough to survive those axes. TOO MUCH EXTRA JUNK TO DO. Other peeves include the dying and HP system. I have to go through everything AGAIN after I die? Oh, so the button is sill pressed, but that wasn't the hard part anyway! And after losing all that health to get here, I don't have enough to survive this next bit? AGH!!! Don't get me wrong, it started out fun and had a decent gameplay concept, but the later levels were too ridiculous. As a result, I'm probably never going to bother finishing this game. Oh well.

What I like about this game...

Is the amazing graphics combined with a slightly different style of space combat. It does tend to get annoying sometimes, but I still thoroughly enjoy it. It's obvious that this was made with sincerity and perseverence.

For a launch game...

It was great! All the other games are about chance, take forever, or both. This is the first time I've played a launcher game that doesn't literally TRY to waste my time. Kudos!

Well composed!

The music and graphics make this otherwise overly-simple game. It's ridiculously addictive!

[Glass Fish Rhythm]

Well put together

The game was fun, the music was in sync with the animation, and it has a new story line. The one thing I disliked was the pointlessness of the eggs on the last level. It really drove me nuts! Out of 100, about 84.
