Rathanos's game Reviews on Newgrounds

[Besieged]

Can't judge

You need to check your algorithm for version checking. It's totally ignoring the fact that I have the beta for flash player 10.

Level X bug

Wish I could have given it a perfect 10, but the level X can't be completed on this browser. It hits the spike too high on the second bounce at the bottom and ends up going back into the first wormhole, where it becomes stuck.

Still, good game otherwise.

Sorry, but spoonfeeding isn't tutorial

As the guy below said, this doesn't explain the code. The person, after the first few blocks of code, does not "know how to make the guy walk". He was spoonfed, which is to be avoided.

Jaye19 responds:

What do you mean about spoonfed

[Carom]

Logic and skill?

I don't see where the skill or logistics comes in in some of the later levels. It's too much about luck.

[The Atlas Station]

Whew

Nice atmosphere. The first time the guy shoots at you freaked me right the hell out ^^;

[Broken Wings]

Similar problem - can't load the game

Whatever it is trying to load once at the gamejacket logo does not go through and the game can't advance.

[Mardek Rpg: Chapter 2]

Can't cast spells in the skills window?

When I try to cast Heal or Aqualung, I get a "BUZZZ!" sound, and I'm not quite certain why.

Any particular reason? Is it fixable? Or a bug?

[Anti-Pacman]

Graphics and music don't make a game..

Gameplay does, and this gameplay was hard to agree to.

As people have pointed out, the AI for ghosts you are not currently controlling are completely retarded - they just move at random and there's no command to make them sit still.

Hell, I should be able to not control a single ghost and Pac-man should stil be getting caught so rudimentary HIS AI is (find pellet, avoid ghost by going back and forth).

[Evil Nights]

A good game, but repetitive and too easy

The game starts off impressive: Nice pre-rendered graphics, and good applying of them into a flash medium.

However, as soon as you get ice, you can 2-3 shot most demons. The challenge curve loosens very quickly.
Once you have 3 crossbow men, it loosens even quicker. When you have teleport, there's nothing they can do and they can only pop a house until you repair it.
I never got any damage after the second night. I only had to use a will potion once. I never had any use for the bat, and I cannot fathom any use for firewall. The spiders and thingies that are summoned (I saw 3 throughout all nights, all in the first few) die too quickly to 3 fireballs (or a freeze and fire).

Yes, it's good graphics, it looks nice and it plays well, but it's... the.. same.. thing.. over.. and.. over. The demons never change: they're all the flying bats and they all use the same technique, the same strategy, the same movements, the same speed, and maybe even the same attack power. They have no variations except their HP and their looks (and the odd summoning ability that no longer comes into play later on).

There's no boss fight. There's no ground units. There's not even an increase in the number of enemies that appear at any given time as the nights progress on. They all pop 3 or 4 at a time, at most.

Good potential, and it starts well, but it ultimately falls from the ease and repetition of the game.
