PeppersMoD's game Reviews on Newgrounds

[War of the Web]

Fantastic game. The idea of mixing numerous websites was simply ingenious.

One wee thing that might be nice to have is a little total counter that tells you how much money you will make before clicking to spend turns as coins. I never really worried about it too much myself but it might be nice to have nevertheless.

Anyway there's very little I can criticise about the game. I've been playing and checking in on it every couple of hours and I know there's plenty for me still to do so really in terms of replay value it is maxed out.

[This is the Only Level]

The original that quite simply spawned some of the greatest flash games available on the net. Simply a legendary game.

[Gravity Duck 2]

As someone who played the first I do feel this one came up a little short. Now that there are going to be sequels there needs to be a lot more innovation. When you look at others like the shift series they manage to incorporate humour as well as a slightly new take on gravity games. Another minor inconvenience for me and it seems a few other is not being able to press "x" to go to the next level. I know you have to advertise and clicking makes people look at it longer but It's just too much.

Nevertheless I'll still give it a 4/5 because of the fact it's just the type of game that can hold your attention to play the whole way through.

[Bubble volcano]

About 6 times now i've been beaten by that short-clock time. I certainly don't mind a challenging game by any means but when i start flinging multiple balls anywhere out of desperation just to get the colour i need and it doesn't show up it gets quite infuriating seeing the explosion happen so quickly. Nevertheless the animation quality is top notch so thumbs up for that element.

[The Epic Hard Maze]

I'm afraid it was a little unimaginative. The animation wasn't very smooth and the overall experience was pretty boring going from switch to switch. One other negative for me was the music, despite the fact I have heard epic sax guy before and enjoy it it just doesn't fit with the atmosphere of the game so they end up seeming like individual elements rather than gripping you into the game. To keep things constructive what I would have like to have seen would be a hard crossword styled maze where opposed to just dead ends there are paths that have to be opened but when you open one others close and stuff like that. Also more than one level would have been good as well. Anyway, good luck in future games.

thanks very much for the feedback. constructive criticism is hard to find on the internet. the open one and the others close idea is good, however for this it could have ended up being very very difficult... I however a nice idea for the next game, to make it difficult, interesting and even nostalgic to some. either that or throw in two played somehow :P

[Achievement Unlocked 2]

Quite simply a legendary game. I always seem to return to it every 6 months and can still manage to waste a good 20-30 minutes.

[A Weekend Alone]

My 1st go on easy was 49 and 1st on hard was 41 so I guess for some people they just get the balance of food/toilet/sleep/work a little faster than others.

For a game that is trying to be ambient/atmospheric it does a pretty good job. It's just that after the 2 plays I don't actually feel compelled to play it again. So in terms of replay value that's why I took 1 star off.

[Wonderputt]

Innovative

Having played many a mini-put game before this one is just the icing on the cake. It's artistic and innovative. A lot of fun to play and even more so just to experience and watch. The sound design was perfect creating that mystical atmosphere and working seamlessly with the game play itself. Would love to see what other creative ideas and twists you can come with on other flash games.

I'm not sure if I would play it 50 times, but in a few months or a year when I am thinking about a mini-put flash game this will certainly be the first to spring to mind.
