What a very interesting game, i was amazed really at the creativity of the game such an odd idea to run water through a series of pipes and you were able to execute it well. The background music was something that i thought really set the scene well, it was soft and had that african feel. The little opening story was well done and made it feel more like an official game. The graphics were good a personal favorite of mine was the corn. The gameplay was fast paced and very enjoyable.

Dang, i got to level 8 but i had to deal with the cannon moving, and it was just all too much for me. This game was heaps of fun, very addictive, for something that doesn't have polished graphics your style is very good. You were able to add heaps of cool little things to complicate each level, such as adding another couple of cannons, adding some more characters and adding that bird. The bonus' were a great idea too, nothing like making the gamer get creative and try to hit two objects with the same shot off a wall. Audio was like something out of an old cartoon and suited this really well. Maybe adding some different weapons as you go along might be interesting?

Oh your sir are a lucky guy, i found the game to be pretty average but because of the great depth you added to the menus, the tutorial and an upgrading feature once you pass a level you were able to really impress me in the end. The game is simply a rehash of sorts of those old arcade games but your version gave me a more enjoyable gaming experience by adding in the pickups and the colorful graphics. A let down for me came with the sounds i wasn't overly pleased with the shooting effect, it didn't seem strong enough to me and also the background music was annoying i would have loved a bit of pace to the music instead of a drawn out slow tune.

Nice

Oh snap dude, i have to say that the job you have done on this is truly remarkable and i am in awe at this game. I personally cant decide what i like better, the great graphical revamping of this classic game or the awesome game play that you have created. The graphics were just so cool i loved the mini little human characters and the cool violent effect of one dieing, brought a tear to my eye. The sound is really the only thing i can pick at as it did seem a little too simple but it does bring with it some of that retro charm.

Addicting

Now this is what i look for in a game, you have made something that can just be played without much instructions and is still very enjoyable. The idea is great collecting little green circles with your cursor while trying to avoid the ever growing amount of red ones was quite the challenge, i was able to get to a modest 71 before i was beaten by one that appeared right next to me. I like the subtle addition of the growth in the cursor which i found to make the game seem more interesting as you went further into it. The background music was cute and didn't override the action but did help the feel of the game. I think that the area that needs improvement is the graphics, now i know they are meant to be simple but i would love to see a refurbished game with some quality graphics and see what you can really do. Overall it was simple, but i find that the best games always are, you were able to make the game more difficult as the user progresses by making the cursor grow which is often the downfall of games, so i look forward to a version 2.

You have made a good game

I have to say as soon as the game's title screen welcomed me i knew that this game had had alot of effort put into it. So i began by starting the game and reading up on the instructions, which were presented nicely. The object of the game was simple, you jump or duck to get presents, you jump or duck to avoid obstacles, now i have played alot of game similar to this and i have noticed that you have fallen into one of the many problems games like these can experience, you have added too many different items that it was hard for the first minute to recall if the item was good/bad, now item variety is great and all but i would advise to only have so many different items in a harder level as the novice player will not take to kindly to the start of the game. Now the theme was one of your highlights, loved the Christmas spirit, playing as Santa being in a winter wonderland and collecting present really brought character to the game and the graphics although simple were easy on the eyes. The background music was adequate for what was required, the remix of jingle bells was lively. The controls were good, however, the slow speed settings you put on "Easy" made timing jumps correctly challenging and as i experienced on "Hard" the controls were alot more smoother and actually helped because of the faster paced scrolling. Overall the good aspects of this game were alot stronger then what was wrong with it as you only need a little tweaking to make this great.

Well i like the idea although adding in the ability to shoot, would make this alot more entertaining, also i seemed to be hit by the objects even if i didnt actually touch them, so maybe there is something there you can do to restrict that. I liked the song selection and also including a mute button was thoughtfull. Your graphics were good, i liked the background it was nice and simple. Overall this was fun and i liked playing on the different levels.

K, Shooting, Better hitTests.

We'll be sure to add that in our update = ) ty for taking the time to review.

Well this was a really simple shooter, i mean i thought the only thing that saved this was that you were able to use a really good idea in using a letter to take down another letter, the music did get kinda annoying though, and the slow pace of it all just seemed to make it lag on alot more then it should have. Overall i cant say that i didnt have fun, but there are alot of areas that need to be touched up on.

Well i have seen alot of flash games like this, but i do give you props for making this back in '01 i mean it may not be original now but back in im sure it was heaps cooler. Your graphics were simple and there was no tally board so there are some things that may have improved the game play, but in the end it doesnt matter it was some harmless fun. Overall simple but it was fun, although i wasnt able to penetrate the defence of the enemy

Well this was actually more in-deepth then i thought it would be, i mean i thought it would be pretty closed off to the options you could actually take but it seemed pretty detailed. I thought the graphics for the road and for the policeman were pretty cool and suited the style well. The voice overs were alittle badly transferred but i didnt expect them to be, but having subtitles were good. Overall this was a very interesting watch and was good to see unfold.
