Irbis's game Reviews on Newgrounds

[Swords & Sandals IV]

bah

oh another S&S demo? good that i learned my lesson like 2 chapters ago. the rating you see is just because of the art, the features, the gameplay and idea. and thats it. anyway - make a game and sell it big time rather then making ppl waste their time playing something which turn out to be demo. its low and selfish.
and yeah, same bug with freezing. really drive my gears.

hechaos responds:

This "demo" is bigger than most of the games you are going to find on Newgrounds. I've been through this argument time and time again. Demo's are just that, you get a (hopefully) positive experience for free...if you like what you're playing, you can get an enhanced version, if you don't , you've lost nothing.

If you think you're "sticking it to the man / giving the big finger to the corporations" I assure you you're not , I'm just trying to earn a living doing something I love - something I wouldn't begrudge anyone. If that's selfish, then so be it.

[Arachnid Wars]

well...

hmm lets see, we got defult score of 10. Well you used Fallout game theme, some sounds from Starcraft, wouldnt hurt you to give them some credit.
as for the rest

gameplay
slow paced, which isnt a bad thing really - as long as you can make player busy with other things rather thern making him just watch the screen like TV and clicking end turn->acceleration->spawn creatures->end turn->acceleration->spawn creatures. its quite repetetive and gameplay suffers from this greatly. and as above THIS wouldnt be a major flaw also in a Real Time Strategy where you are short on time, but this is a turn based game. make the player to be able to do something more then mindless clicking. like, i dont know, add some exploration feature, maybe badges or challanges. just make us busy meantime.

Graphics
they arent great, but they are preety descent, sometimes its hard to tell what is where because of the terrain/creatures color collision, also sometimes its hard to tell is a creature is alive O.o i had a time when i was prepared that my spiders will met the oponets and i discovered them to be dead lol

sounds/music
ekhem - fallout ^^ i loved that game and so the music but... yea. you know the gameplay is really slow-paced and this rather sleepy music isnt helping, you can literaly fall asleep after 10 minutes. aside from that - no major flaws

GUI
well, its okey i gues, but i would like the cancel/exit buttons to be in one same place in all windows so i can click them fast. when playing i offten had a problem to find wheres that damn exit button.

aside from all above - its a good game. i would give you 6/10 but it'll be 7/10 as its visible you put some effort inside. as for 5 stars rating i am forced to give it a 3/5. its okey, but after some missions its not like i will be coming back for more.

[Red Code]

ekhem

i would like to give a free advice to all the reviewers out there.
to put it straigh: play more then 30secunds -> then rate the game/review it.
yes it is hard at the beggining but after few laps it becomes quite funny. just pump your XP into main gun and granades maybe. shame that ship gun is not much of use, and nearly the same gose for autocannon. but after a while (like level 10) yes it gets repetetive, but then again every defend game is like that after magic level 10-15. i will give it 8 becuz of very nice and stylish graphics (it reminds me and old dog Another World game :) )great atmospher and becuz its still a challange even at later level. just a one personal flaw from me is that - as in nearly all defend games here on NG - you just get more and harder enamies. no bosses (i dont rate that blob thing as a boss really, specialy when in laters level the area is covered with them) and that only main gun is really wourth of spending XP on so the variation is rather small. but for a 10-30minutes this game is very fun to play =]

[Doom Triple Pack]

=DDDDD

LEGEND STRIKES AGAIN!!!
<3333 Doom 1 and 2 :)

[3000 AD]

ahh nostalgy =)

reminds me good old Mechawarrior serie =] but yeah both idea and job done are near perfect. graphics could be better but thats not a big flaw, maybe i was a bit suprised how simple footmans with their machinguns can drain so much life from me but oh well. great job and keep up the good work mate =D

[Zombie Survival: Outbreak]

hehehe

it sure is neverending... after 69lvl i grow a bit tired. after upgrading everything, with 20 granades and neo-suit i lost the fun factor :P maybe something end-game? like boss every idk 40lvl? anyway - this is better then your previus one. previous was just anoying for me. this one just eaten like a whole hour from me O.o

[Ether War]

=DDDD

kind a short but great! looking forward for part 2 =)

[Stunt Bike Deluxe]

well

hell load of bugs but i like this game. and as a matter of fact i think that after carving some notches this game can surpass the origial.
