Well that was a very well done dress up game, i thought the title was a weird choice though. The music in the background was well selected and suited this game. I liked the amount of items you had here, it kept me entertained for a while. The save slots and load slots were a very good edition. Overall a good effort for a flash genre that has so much competition.

[Lights Out 3D]

Liked

Oh how i tried to finish the first level, i tried twice over 200 goes per attempt and i still couldn't pass it, i feel really ashamed and stupid but i think thats a good thing because you are really challenging the user with this game, maybe not to the same extent as it challenged me but its still quite tough. I thought it resembled a Rubik's cube in a way and i was never any good at those but with your game you were able to keep me thinking that i had a chance to win. The music in the background was well selected and i am also glad the you kept the background white, clear from any distractions. Overall a very hard but enjoyable game.

My apologies for consuming your time. But thanks for the kind words. glad you enjoyed it.

(and if you need help on the first level. heres a hint. Just hit the 8 lights that are lit at the start of the game. (all 8 corners of the cube) in any order)

Well i thought you took ideas from other games and were able to make it into this very strange game that i found quite enjoyable. You were able to help the player a lot at the start by giving a very thorough tutorial that taught the player everything that needed to be known. The music in the background suited this well and i liked the questions that you had, some of them were really tough. Overall i found this game to be fun and challenging.

[Go! Spin]

Liked

Well i have to say that i loved the theme you used for this game, the heavy metal guitar background music was the highlight for me, i thought it really brought something extra to this game. The whole spinning concept was great and i loved how you introduced new buttons as the levels progressed. The results display at the end was well done, i liked the percentage chart. Overall a good original game.

[Boxhead: 2Play Rooms]

Liked

Well this was a really cool game, i liked how it was all set out in a large room and there was multiple entries for the bad guys to come from, the explosive barrels helped a lot, i liked the sound effects too, you had everything from gunshots to explosions and it really made this feel more interactive because of that. The graphics were what they needed to be to fit in with the box style that you have chosen to go with, i liked them, also the loading screens looked great i loved that picture you used. Overall a very interesting game and i loved the new multi player feature, the character respawning if only one dies was a great idea.

[Castlevania Priest Battle]

Liked

There was quite a bit that i enjoyed about this game but the part that i enjoyed the most was the interaction between the users character and jesus, some of the jokes were so outrageous. The gameplay for the fights was pretty good, it felt just like a NES game with the user having the option to either jump or attack and of course the directional buttons. I thought the background music was well selected and the choice of backgrounds for the fights were also good. Overall a pretty cool interactive flash.

[Knights of Rock]

Liked

Well this game reminded me a lot of the guitar hero games for the ps2 but with your game you had a whole story unfolding in the background as the user hit the correct keys. The idea was great but it was alittle annoying that i couldn't view the cool fight sequence in the background because i was busy hitting keys, so it would be nice if after the viewer finishes the game that they can watch the fighting without any interaction needed. Overall it was very interesting and had a great music selection that made this game work.

This game was really strange but i think it was interesting overall because of that weird style that you used. The gameplay was simple just point and click, so i liked that fact about this game a lot. The music you chose was really retro and suited this game well. The only thing that annoyed me was that there was no feeling of progression because the user wasn't rewarded with anything, i did like how you added in harder enemies the longer the user stayed alive though.

[Solid Straight Pool]

Liked

Well i love playing pool in real life so when i saw this i thought it would be something to definitely check out and i am glad i did because you have brought the game to flash wonderfully, my only concern is that there was no sound effects for when the balls hit and there was no background music option to listen to while playing, but besides that i thought that your graphics were good and you made easy controls that the user could pick up on quickly. Overall it was a lot of fun, very enjoyable.

double-stroke responds:

Thank you all so much! Sound is in fact a heavy thing and I always thought that it isn't that important. But that maybe was just a thought to prevent to be faced with that task. However, the absence of sounds seems to be the main critique, so I will fix it ... and post a new version as far as it's done. Thank you all. Dirk

The game was a lot of fun, i thought that the highlight of it was the amount of bad guys that you had in this game, the variation was quite remarkable. The sound effects were also a highlight for me, i thought that the zombie yelling sounds were the best of the bunch. The controls were simple and you made sure that there were a lot of enemies. The different weapons were also awesome. Overall a very enjoyable game.
