madsman's game Reviews on Newgrounds

[Soulcaster]

I really look forward to playing it however I have a problem or bug.
The game only shows the two icons in the bottom middle of the screen labelled: Created by & Ported with. It also shows a: Show log & Full Screen button but neither do anything.

look forward to trying soon. Please don't just recommend using a different browser.
I've always used Windows Internet Explorer and I wont download a different one just for a game, no matter how good. My reason for that is because a game on the internet hould be supported by all browsers. I've heard great things so please get back to me.

Thanks,
Madsman.

I agree 100%, but this is sadly not the world we live in. This is like saying a game on the PC should be supported by all PC's regardless of hardware. The latest version of IE should work (it's worked for us) but there are so many variables, and only so many things we can control with the current state of HTML5 games.

I had the same problem as AlphaDogMJP,
wont regster some of the jumps i do, making it impossible to play.

it definatly needs more work but its not a half bad game. The two main things i would suggest are these:

1) make the tutorial unavoidable.
- for some reason, unknown to myself, I am the kind of person that'll say 'nah i don't need to look at the tutorial, ill figure it out as i go along.' but because your game is unlike most, ido not instantly know how to play it, and considering i'm a 24/7 gamer, that's pretty hard to do to me. Well Done!

2) the only other thing that i noticed whilst playing was the quality of the writing and the main logo in the top left of the screen on the main menu.
-I can't work out whether it is because of the background or because the writing and the logo have a low quality but somthing is making the outside of the text and the logo very poor quality.

The actual game play is rather good and it is clear that the programmeing for this game is thought out well because it all runs smoothly without jumps and stuff in the images so well done. I do not make games myself but am in a similar job with making animations, thus I know how frustating it can be to get images to more smoothly and run properly in time so i congratulate you on that.
I really enjoyed your game, Thank you for your effort!
Madsman.

Thank you for such a constructive review. The game was not designed to be played as such a small resolution. The graphics were all designed at 1024x768, but I've always loved games on Newgrounds and have been playing them since college.. anyhow I believe that it is because newgrounds requires me to shrink the game. I will look into addressing it to improve the visual quality.

Regarding the tutorial.. I think you are right about that, and will be adding that to a future update of the game. Thank you for your insight.

Regards
