Compdude's game Reviews on Newgrounds

[Dress Up Kirby]

Just a dressup game.

Dull and overly simplistic. And that music loop may qualify as the most annoying thing ever. Still, a commendable job for keeping it to 20k.

[Aqua Energizer]

Fun and challenging.

Fun little puzzle game. Some have mentioned its similarity to other puzzle games, but I don't think anyone mentioned Chip's Challenge. Good level design on most of them; I was able to solve all but the 7th and 10th levels (as of right now).

[Raver Meltdown]

I'd be doing better things with my time.

Aptly biting social commentary, and a fun flash game overall.

[Ratman Ralph]

Seek and consume.

Solid game premise and programming, but I find the system of poison placement to be faulty. There reaches a certain point where reaching the cheese becomes an impossibility, and the board does not clear following a death. A better system would be a set maximum amount of poisons on screen, changing position as cheese is consumed.

[Snipe the Snipers!]

Turnabout is fair play.

Suprisingly prompt submission regarding local events, but completely lacking in content.

[Monkey Diving]

Addictively fun.

Very entertaining and creatively original game, though I feel just horrible when the monkeys leap to their deaths. Monkeys are cool. Seeing them die is a pain to my heart. :)

[Touch Me Bunny!]

Little bit of both.

Mildly disturbing, and mildly funny. Just sort of middle of the road work.

[Xiao Xiao 9]

Good but hard.

Good Xiao Xiao game. I am continually impressed by this guy's skills, both in graphics and programming. I will concur though, that the final boss is a formidable foe. He would be beatable if he didn't have SEVERAL entire life bars. Judging by the way his health went from blue to light blue to green, I can only guess I had even more life bars to get through before he would have died. Difficulty is good, but this is an internet medium where a bit less difficulty would be appreciated. And I noticed the little humor aspects, like the one guy peeing on the post and then shaking himself. :)

[Powerpuff Character Maker]

Good idea, bad implementation.

It's a neat idea, but it's not implemented all that well. The interface is a bit cumbersome, and the choices aren't quite varied enough. The click-and-drag dress up style is a better system.

[Hungry Hungry Caesar]

Good fat fun.

Well done. I'll avoid ranting and say I completely agree with you on this issue. The game is quite fun - I like the carnival pop-up effect and quivering food jockeys.

Are you familiar with the kiddie token game Big Big Bertha? It ran on a similar concept - throw plastic balls into this woman's mouth to make her gain weight (supplied by an air pump under a billowy "dress") Good work - I haven't seen a "kill celebs" game in a long time, though I'd hardly call this lardboy a celebrity. :)
