kazoodac's game Reviews on Newgrounds

[DBZ-PE 2.31]

Awesome job

This is easily the best dragonball Z game on Newgrounds.
You've done an amazing job!

However...

Despite being a DBZ fan, the game leaves me wanting more.
It's a shame that you claim you are done with this game, because I feel you are extremely close to perfection with this, but just not quite there yet.

Here's some things I noticed and some suggestions.

Frame problem with goku as any super saiyan, when fighting there's a couple frames where you see his normal form.

When charging kamehameha, enemies do not fight back (not that I minded about this, in fact you could claim that dbz enemies stare blankly in awe when any character charges up anyway!)

could use some more fighting options, like combos and kicks added in.

The ability to jump would be a great addition

Powering up would be welcome

The storyline seemed to end at a weird spot; if you were going to start the Majin Buu saga, you should have finished the DBZ series, and to that effect, not included SSJ4.

In addition to a story mode, a duel mode or survival mode or the like would have been a nice addition. Additional characters for the modes would have been awesome as well.

I understand how much time and effort flash takes, but you are really on to something here. The game is great, but it's just not on the same level as some of the other stick games that I've seen around here.

But overall great job, and keep up the good work!

Thanks for the long review, however I am already working on another project and I sent this last version with fixes just so the whole thing won't be a waste of work.
If I would've built another action game in the future I suppose I'll just make a new engine since this one is very old.

[The Legend of Zelda Quiz]

not bad

it was pretty good, there are a lot of good quiz questions in there.

however, it needed checkpoints, as each time I missed one I had to start over again.

also, you need to have the music loop, as it stops after one play.

finally, and perhaps the most important...

One of your questions is wrong...MIDNA is the twilight princess, not zelda.

liable-to-explode responds:

Hahaa, well, Midna is the ruler of the Twili, but Midna herself introduces Zelda as the Twilight princess in the beginning of the game. I might have to change it, as many people probably agree.

As for the checkpoints the idea of the game is to play it once to see how good you are. :P

I fixed the music.

Thanks for the helpful review! :D

[The Expert's Guide to NG]

great tutorial, very helpful!

I'm finally starting to understand how all of that works, and your tutorial certainly was helpful to me! It explained a lot of things that had slightly baffled me in the past. and some of those examples were funny.

keep up the good work!

highwatermark responds:

Thanks a lot.

Well, they were only funny in theory; they're supposed to model real stuff pretty closely.
