A common game that screams LOOK I TRY TO STAND OUT
Look, I love the game Astroids. I am old school. I truthfully thought that this would be a great remake of the game (As it uses the same concept) But instead of just leaving the whole damn game alone and doing an awesome job on the graphics and gameplay, they obliterate the term "Fun". Heres the lowdown.
The graphicsare good for a flash game that was made by an unknown artist that posts his games on websites that charge you to get the "Extra things". But Nevermind that, The graphics were decent. Now the GAMEPLAY on the other hand... the whole entire concept of collecting rings irks me. Why the hell cant you just destroy the astroids and rack up points to raise some cash? But no, you have to use a lazer (That takes a long time to "Transform" these astroids) to create rings from the astroids. Not only is this Tedious, but its feels like im doing a boring office job. I dont want to come home after a long days of work to sit at the computer and do some more work I dont want to do. Also, the "Enemy's" are basically astroids with lazer beams strapped to themselves. It makes no sense to put a challange in a game if the challange is slow, unaccurate, and as easy to kill as a goomba. After a few tries, i managed to get to level 2, which basically asks me to add more usless things to my ship, and then gives me such a little amount of money, that i just scoff and skip the whole thing together. I know what the creators will probally have in their defense. "Oh, I made this game because I wanted to make a fun, challanging game! Its not a Astroids ripoff" Look, I dont care if you made this by yourself or if you made it without astroids in mind (Which is highly unlikely), the whole game is a chore. Its has nothing Unique, there is no diffcultiy, and the whole concept has been reused many times in many games.
If anyone wants a good game that features you blowing up astroids with aliens, Just play Astroids. Believe me, you will just waste your time playing this one.

You know what? I reviewed your first one before it made the front page and this took care of everything that it had its problems... (Did I say that Right?) Heh, I remember that I said that you need ragdoll, and you make them move. lol. but anyways, you reverted to american chicks now? no asian chicks? I mean, the more the merrier right? I mean, nice skin man, no dobut, make a sequel... please waste another 8 hours of your life, because if you can do that much while using the same engine in that short period of time, you have to make a sequel, blame it on me, becuse I started it :P Arg Damn My fingers hurt... reply? yes? no? ok.
I can't fucking believe it's become this easy/shameful to call yourself a game maker these days. A little porn and violence goes a long way I guess. I remember scanning thru all the reviews, taking in all the suggestions. This is truely a game crafted by the players, I'm just the meat puppet that sat and stared at the screen for a few hours.
Anything you want in the next one, better say it now.
That is, if I really wanna risk my rep on a 3rd, I mean, going into this one ( not to mention the first ) I thought for sure I was ganna get chewed up something fierce.
Awesome platformer, I Knew how to get the hang of it after awhile XD Also, at the end, or in the game, could you show the ammount of bullets you used? I just think this gaame is good and has planty of "Replay value"

I am always a sucker for these kinda games. You know, run around, look at things, get hints to rediclious things... But this was the same as any of them, yet diffrent enough to stand out from the rest. The ending is suprisingly simple, and easy to comprehend. I Would recommennd expanding something like this, but the cconcept is so deep at the end that I dont think there will ever be a second. Loved it, and gota hand it to ya, its diffrent than any game out there, but still the same gameplay.
Peace, -Stripez
You know, i was going to go off on your ass for the guy falling in semen joke (Never gets old) But, That Was Friggin Halarious! Nice asian pics (Are they?) and Just 1 thing..... and another thing... First off, Why Cant you Get more baddies to kill? That was so funny that they stood there ,so the possibilites are endless! (Click and drag? Ragdoll effects? What you makin another game or is this really the final joke?) And PLEASE include more jokes, That single joke would make an athiest crap his pants and christans crap theirs for other reasons. Very funny, No Flaws, easy, And Fun!(Please answer im desprate and tired)
Ok, so yes, those are ASIAN (Asia breeds the hottest women ), I wanted to do more enemies to kill, but to do so would require more work, making it more serious and less "joke". Ragdoll is any coder's nightmare I'm told, so that's a serious thing, however more elaborate, larger variety and some more envirnmental kills would be in a sequel if one is made.
Thanks again for the kind words, More jokes can be added easily, so if another is made, expect them. :D
dude, that is madness 4, not 5 and you really need to prove what you are tring to say with more fillers and make the people that didnt understand the joke get some background first.Im being generous because this is your first flash, but i have seen better.
Very addictive for a 5 minute game... not too bad... oh, and i learned a secret... try to get your mouse offscreen :P oh, and try to beat my best score: 3280.6M
(I actually got this!)
Just wondering, what flash driver did you use and how long did it take to make this? (it doesnt look that it took a lot of time to do) also, you need to work on your drawing skills :P
It is a really goood defender that, instead of selling your weaker people, make you level them up and permanently put them on the map! Hours of fun! (I Wasted 2hours,36minutes,and47seconds)By ''wasted'' I mean Had fun with. :P

I know it's crap. I was gonna put an 'Explanation' button in, but I thought it was a crap idea. Might do it now, though.

Flash 8 and about 10 minutes maybe, the end drawings aren't my best.
