Compdude's game Reviews on Newgrounds

[War On Terrorism]

Fun but a few snags.

A very fun and involved game - the option for four missions is very cool. The only downside - that crouching guy in mission 3 won't die, and the graphics are just above average.

[PA-Vaders]

Controls need work.

Bah. It's just Space Invaders, and just average at that. The controls are really bad - A, D, and W are bad keys for controls, and the gap is too big between movements, making hitting the enemies hard. Graphics and sound are kinda lackluster too. I like the idea of purchasing bigger and better ships though - just work on the controls to make it more user-friendly.

[Oceanside Piano]

Tickle the ivories.

Ooooh... pulsatingness and piano...ness. A good job for what it is, but it's really just a few piano keys and a wierd background. It is, however, a promising first instrument game I've seen on Newgrounds. I'd like to see more of this kind of stuff, perhaps with more keys, instruments, and backgrounds? :)

[Splatman + Level Editor!]

Wierd, but wonderful game.

Amazing. This has to be one of the strangest, yet funnest games I've played on Newgrounds thus far. It's certainly the best as far as Pacman clones go. The graphics are extremely sumptous and 3D, the music is just goofy enough to be enjoyable, and I really enjoyed how the levels were more "puzzle-based" - monsters followed a set pattern rather than chasing you around. Not only are there 15 levels of fun, - you threw in a complete level editor - making for hours of extra gameplay! The only sticking point is, the controls are difficult to master - you should use the arrow keys as a constant direction input - not just for changing direction... if that makes any sense. This is marvelous work, and the standard by which Flash games should be made.

[Jail Break]

Shoot 'em up!

A good, basic game. I like the concept of area-specific damage, and the line-up at the end is a nice touch to see how they react to all six areas. There should be a score counter though, and maybe some different levels to break up the monotony.

[Monster Poolside Sumo]

Lots of fun.

Fun game! Good graphics, funny characters, good gameplay, and appropriately increasing difficulty keeps you coming back for more.

[Monster Attack from Outer]

Good simple game.

I like the corny 50's B-movie touches, and the simplicity of the game. Nice, simple work.

[Sniper Scope R Shot]

Good game, too hard.

Interesting game, but the difficulty level is certainly too hard unless you turn it way down. I agree that there should be more points for a bullseye, and lesser points for hitting the rest of the target.
