[There She Is!! step4]

Beautiful

I wouldn't expect any less from you amalloc.

Very moving. I liked the song a lot too.

Keep up the good work!

[My 1st Flash Animation]

Not a bad first attempt

Considering the title I was expecting something horrible, but it's not bad for your first Animation. It was short but that can be forgiven. Keep up practicing!

Croberson responds:

Thanks :D

[The Flying Rocket Collab]

I see...

I guess they ran out of Clay in your special education class and decided to make flash movies instead...

[Sword of Laguna: Prologue]

Flawed

The problem I had with this game is that it has nothing that hasn't been overused to death before. I understand it's a class project/assignment, but try thinking outside of the box.

I've heard the old "Kid lives in village, village gets raided/destroyed, kid seeks revenge" thousands of times before (well that might be a bit of a hyperbole, but you get the point.)

Also, the combat is repetitive and boring. There are no strategic elements whatsoever except for the fact that you have to heal yourself before you die.

As for the boss battle, I understand they should be tough but the fact that you have to essentially "grind" for potions in order to survive the battle is a big no-no. Like I said, boss battles should be tough, but strategically involved, so it requires precision thinking rather than mashing buttons to win.

Graphics-wise, I'm not too offended by it. Sure, a nice presentation always makes games more engaging and immersive, but it's not required to make a fun game.

And lastly I played with the audio on and it was ok for the first couple of minutes, but then it became irritating, especially during the fights. It would be nice to have a litte more diversity in the audio department, preferably music with more than one instrument in it.

Closing Comments:

If you're indeed serious about making games, then by all means, listen to the constructive criticism and try to improve your skills. I know it's hard to listen to the flaws about the stuff you make (even if most of the stuff is subjective,) I know it hurts our pride a bit, but we only get better by failing.

mychii responds:

Yeah, these comments are what I really need to narrow the gamer's need, that's why I dared to put this thing up, because I don't want to create the next chapters based on what we think, but what you guys also think about this and RPG at most. :)

Thanks for your comment Brood-of-Evil, I'll keep up to be far better than this.

Once again thanks x)

[NG:Tutorial and Quiz]

That was pretty informative...

It's simple yet I think it's helpful for those who are new to NG. The only thing I have complains about is the music and the gree text, it's hard to the eyes, please chage it if you have the oportunity to do so.

Freemind responds:

I plan to change the color of the text and add more songs to listen to. Thx for the review.

[arm wrestle my ego V3]

Nice game

It makes me wish I had a turbo spacebar keyboard or something lol. Anyway if you make another WME game, why don't you put some people in the background, cheering up or something like that? It reminds me of the old 2d fighters with the crowd in the background etc.
