"Good concept - some serious flaws."

submission: Typing Monster

date: July 9, 2009

It's a nice concept to combine learning how to type fast with the challenge of succeeding in a game.
It's certainly more interesting and fun than the run-of-the-mill learning program, although a little more originality wouldn't hurt.

What really made me weigh down the rating is the fact that it has serious bugs. I, for one, was able to type neither : nor ;. I wasn't able to continue the game, no matter what I put in, it didn't continue. I was watching my points sinking to zero, trying out all kind of different button combinations - but it didn't work.

It might have something to do with the fact that I don't use the English keyboard layout, but others have also had this problem. And a game that can't be completed by some players isn't really worth playing.

Thus: 4/10, 2/5

Score: 2

"Not original at all."

submission: Kill the emoticon!

date: August 30, 2007

This is not original in any way. We've seen hamsters, frogs, George W. Bushs - all kind of different objects or persons tortured interactively. It's just not orginal anymore. This flash has absolutely nothing to offer. A smiley killed in different ways - even the graphics aren't that much of a deal.
I don't really think this is in any way a flash that people have to see.

Score: 5

"Short, senseless, but well-done."

submission: The Final Task

date: August 29, 2007

First of all, this movie contains only one fighting scene between an unnamed hero and an unnamed demon villain.
Except for this fight, held in some dark red field, there is nothing.

The animation is well done, the artwork itself is pretty good. Also, the soundtrack, although badly balanced, contributes well to the scenery. Still, the flash has about zero story and although being tuned to be stylish, has absolutely nothing to offer. 6/10 points.

-1 point for giving a wrong age limit. This surely isn't suitable for all audiences.
