LoZ - Simdate RPG

"A slight Forkheads rip-off, but very well-done."

submission: LoZ - Simdate RPG
date: June 3, 2007

First off, you probably have enough reviews pleading you to make a better ending in your sequel, so I won't waste any time on begging for that (just voting for it).

As for style, well, it's very reminiscient of the Forkheads, with the added little gameplay feature. The tone is almost pure Forkheads, but they are a very influential team so I won't hold it against you for borrowing from them. The dialogue is certainly a little less over-the-top than the Forkheads dialogue, and I can appreciate that (while you were at it, though, you might have dropped the drug references too, if only because that's one of the few trademarks of the Forkheads games that I really don't like).

Gameplay was good, I was very surprised how well you detailed the SNES-quality controls of the game with all the little references to the game series, that was excellent. The game did have a few glitches but nothing game-stopping. One thing I did notice was that every time I got into a random fight, after the fight was over the music automatically switched back to the default tone.

The graphics were spectacular. I like how you had a lot of different artists helping you, I don't envy having to get all of them to work with you, but the result was fantastic, with a very varied style. Keep it up, if you make that your own trademark (all great artists have trademarks, flash gaming is no different) you'll make some excellent work.

I enjoyed all the cultural references. Ernest Hemingway? In your own words, o_0 . Why him, incidentally, are you a fan of his? I liked "The Old Man and the Sea," but apart from that I haven't read much of his.

Overall, an excellent game, especially since you say this was the first one you programmed. I'd never heard of you before this (I haven't been back to newgrounds in a while, forgive me), and I have to say this makes me want to check out more of your work.

Overall, one of my faves so far.

I'm afraid I have no idea what Forkheads is. Any similarity is purely coincidental @__@ I'm glad the glitches didn't stop ou from playing :D As for Ernest Hemmingway, I guess I'm a fan...but I used him because that sprite looks just like him haha

Be sure to check out my future games and animations if you like my style! :D

Spirit of Truth SB

"Good, but..."

submission: Spirit of Truth SB
date: May 26, 2007

...but you left out some of the best lines.

How could you leave out:

"God almighty, y'know, ruler of heaven and urf and every God damn thing in between!"

"Who created yo' ass?"

"Shutcha' Goddamn ass up!"

Come on, include those in the next version.

Boobs Or Ass

"An excellent game."

submission: Boobs Or Ass
date: December 9, 2006

A very good game, a nice remix of "boobs, butt or shoulder" without the annoying shoulder clips. It's simple and tantalizing, if a bit repetitive after a while (perhaps shades of difficulty could be inserted, photos sorted by how hard it is to tell?). Oh, and I LOVE the inclusion of the Loituma Girl's song.
