Colour My Dreams

"Why go on?"

submission: Colour My Dreams

You put the words in my mouth there =) The style certainly has a unique flavour to it, but if you are going for the bleak, empty world filled with pain and misery, there has to be SOMETHING pushing you to endure it. A lovable character you want to get out of there pherhaps? Everything about this game is sad. The music, setting, hunched over character... Great atmosphere, but put it to better use! :) Great effort, continue with this style, and look no further than Machinarium for inspiration and charm. Good luck.

3rd Grade Transformers

"I'd rather pay you guys"

date: October 27, 2009

Way way more enjoyable than the movie, which should have been a 160 minute Dx11 demo anyway. What pile of dung.

Epic Battle Fantasy

"Normally I hate these games.."

date: August 12, 2009

..but this one was so well done. I couldn't stop playing. And after I beat it, I had to beat it again. Amazing work.

"Nice the first time"

date: August 10, 2009

But once you understand the trick it's fairly tame :)

AMAzing animation! I just have one question: Was the two guys inspired by Orochimaru and Zetsu from Naruto? Keep up the incredible work! You're an inspiration.

Deep Sexy Space

"Well.."

submission: Deep Sexy Space
date: May 29, 2008

Animation is amazing, but the song is effin horrible. I can see why this got such a high score as you have tits AND cocks in it, but man...that music totally ruined it for me.

I know it's supposed to be a "crazy, fast, fun flash", but overall I think it lacked a bit in real style. Not graphicswise, just... well... I don't know if you have "jamba-commercials" where you live, but that's what the movie reflected to me. I was almost waiting for a voice going "You can get this Cuu-RAAAAZY movie and music on your mobile phone for only $3.99!!"

Music Catch

"Beautiful"

submission: Music Catch
date: May 29, 2008

Great concept, easy fun, and good design. Everything looks very professional and the music is relaxing. The biggest grip I have with the game is that I don't feel like I'm playing a music game. "WFT??" you'll all say, "the points are moving according to the rythm!" Yes they sure are, but MY actions are not following the rythm, so in my head, my movements are not adding to the experience, which might have been better.

It also get's a bit repetitive after a while and would last longer with more tracks, features and ways of playing. To be perfectly honest, I was a bit surprised to see this on the number one spot. A part of me likes the fact that it is, because it shows NG is maturing a bit, but the other part of me feels like this was a very well designed demo of what to come next, and not a true competitor for first place. Acctually, I think that might be a good way of describing it, seeing as there is bound to be a sequel/expansion.

I'm all about good ideas, and this game has a really good idea. Now all it needs is time. Time for polishing, extending and elaborating on ideas. Once it is, I'm sure it will be an easy game to sell. You should think about making one for the iPhone app store that opens next month, you'll be a millionaire ;)

GT - Monster Trainer

"Well made and meh funny"

date: May 27, 2008

Pros:
Awesome animation
Good use of colors
A good looking style
16-bit graphics, woo!

Cons:
The dialogue just wasn't that funny
The host's voice ruined it a bit (too exaggerated)
A bit short

Overall: Great effort, well made, but lacks the comedy UMPH. The only part where I laughed was the last second where the monster speaks/cries. Now that was funny.

PUSTOTA

"One of my all time favorites"

submission: PUSTOTA
date: May 27, 2008

I've been watching this many, many times over the last 4-5 years. The mood and setting is beyond amazing, the song is incredibly moody (I've aquired the album already), and the animation and transitions are unequaled in their style. I have no idea why I never reviewed it, but here it is :) If I could give this piece an 11, I would. This is art, not flash. It deserves so much more recognition than it already has, and I hope it is included the day we pick our "classics of Newgronds" for praise. I have nothing but love for this movie. Thank you so much for inspiration over the years, Kol-Belov.

-Michael
