[Learn to Fly !]

Nice

The game is really nice, I like the many upgrades you can get, and the amount of control you have over the penguin. However, the menus are very annoying, you can't just press play, you have to dismiss dozens of dialogs all the time. When you get to the upgrade screen, you click FLY, then it STILL doesn't start, you still have to click a number a the top of the screen (don't know what that is), and then you still have a help dialog for each upgrade you have. They also take ages to shift in and out of the screen so it's annoying!

Nice graphics and good game anyway!

Un-reactive controls

The controls in this game feel like they lag and you can't do more than one thing at the same time. You can't know whether the robot is close enough to smash you or whether you're close enough to hit it. Every time you get hit, you fly away and there's nothing you can do. It feels like you have almost no control over what's happening, and you're best off pressing all the buttons randomly as fast as you can. If you press attack, your character doesn't attack if you're in the middle of a jump or if you're at the end of a previous attack of even if the robot is attacking you...

Difficult to control

The controls make aiming very difficult and annoying, not in a fun way. That rotating laser thing takes a lot of time to speed up and slow down, so it makes it even harder to aim.

Wow

Greaat game, wonderful graphics, awesome background, Love the concept, great fluid dynamics (never seen anything that good in Flash!!)!

[In Utero]

Great

Finally a game that I could play more than for 3 seconds! I liked the graphics and the theme, and the shooting and upgrading this was nice and usable, automatic and all... Simple and not too easy, especially the boss, quite hard compared to the rest.

I liked it but it could be a bit longer and it could be a bit less random! Like I don't see more than 1 tampon in a vagina!

FetusFulp responds:

nothing in this game is to be taken seriously, except the bad-ass boss. do you really think pussy fish exist? :P take the game as it is instead of looking at it as "random."

thanks :3

[Mighty Red Orb]

Medium

Navigating through these corridors is quite difficult with only 4 keys to control your direction. It makes you have to press Up, Right, Up, Right, Up, Right a lot for example all the time, which makes it frustrating and annoying. Collecting the little things doesn't do anything interesting either, the thing that makes you faster is annoying and the thing that makes you slower is annoying too, basically it's like a mouse avoider but with the keyboard. Controlling the thing with the mouse would be a lot better maybe, and shooting with the mouse would still be possible by clicking.

RatherRandomReality responds:

Instead of pressing Up, Right, Up, Right, Up, Right a lot have you tried pressing Up+Right at the same time? How about that as a concept? It gives you 4 more directions to go- diagonals! Anyway, thanks for reviewing, mouse control is not a bad idea.

[Sniper Year One]

Its all right

It's all right, but there is something really stupid about this game: a sniper rifle is supposed to Zoom In, to make things easier, it's the whole point. In this game, you don't zoom in, you just mask out everything and see your target through a circle without seeing any closer. Accuracy with a mouse is quite hard this way, especially that there is quite a lot of lag in the game (even if I'm on the best computer you can imagine). Also, there's a lot of time being wasted with the fade in and fade outs every time it says Mission Failed and so on, the whole thing takes so much time to replay that it gets annoying.

The graphics are all right though. I'm sure you could add a zoom feature easily.

[Portal Defenders]

not really responsive

It feels like you're not doing much in the game, just keep pressing A and you either win or lose, it's hard to move around and there's no point really. Anyway, the story, wtf?? what are these yellow pokemon things? And why?

[Tetris: Charity Edition!]

Yeah

The tetris I have on my TETRIS console (or whatever is called) is still way better than this. That bomb guy is annoying, it destroys all that stuff I built all the time, so it's almost impossible to do anything because as soon as I get close to getting a row done, he comes around and messes everything up... The keys are not really responsive either, for example, in the original tetris, you could press the right key to move a block to the right, and the block would move as long as you kept the Right key down. Whereas here, you need to press it 10 times to move it 10 pixels to the right for example.

[Deliver That Fulp]

Command lines?

So basically all you need to do is type in random words and see if it does anything? How am I supposed to guess the words? What's the point? This is as interesting as playing around with DOS without knowing a single thing about it.
