jmtb02's game Reviews on Newgrounds

[Gimme Friction Baby]

Great!

I saw this on JayIs a while back, and I am glad it has made it's way here! It's a terrific casual game, and I am completely impressed with the simplicity and style of the game. Congrats, you did an amazing job.

[NG Sketchbook Tour 07]

Great, but...

I have printed out FIVE copies of my artwork and CANNOT find a mailing address to mail these to LUIS YOU FORGOT AN ADDRESS >:((((

On a more personal note, the Sketchbook Tour came out phenomenal this year, topping even last year's design. Loved it, great job you guys. Everyone on the team did a great job, extra kudos to Luis for a great final product. Glad I could sneak my Cloud Sig in to the contest even before it became a stupid fad.

[MegaSuper: EXTREME]

Excellent!

I was surprised by this one. Unlike a lot of the other Rock Out contest entries, there was a lot of polish, synchronization, and quality. I love the hold notes and the sound cutting out when you miss them. All-in-all, well put together, enjoyable to play. In a contest full of four-button slamming, your entry definitely stands out.

GirlFlash responds:

thanks so much, it means a lot. I did feel kind of guilty for not making anything particularly original so I tried to make up for it with flavour and a crisp(ish) engine. I'm really glad you noticed :D

[Luis' Mexican Standoff]

Lovely

I died on my own guy. Is that ironic?

Anyway, awesome game for 4 hours. I like the reaction-based game quality without the twitch reflexes of something appearing on the screen, telling you to push a button. Nice job.

Wow, thanks for the review, jmtb02. Glad you liked it. :)

[Beat Bounce]

Brilliant

This is my favorite Rock Out contest submission thus far. The music, style, and gameplay are all unique, and it was a rhythm game that was original and fun. I admire the work put into this one, hope it wins. Congrats!

[Retron]

Fun :)

My favorite Kenney game yet. The idea of warping the playing field is brilliant. I was underwhelmed at first, but once I saw the screen going nuts, man, great game.

Kenney responds:

Thanks jmtb02 =) Really great to hear, when my thought at first was: "lol, will this even make it through the portal?". Great that it turned out like this =D

[NGAP Radio]

Best Idea in a Long Time

What better sampling tool for new music then the Audio Portal mixer? This a phenomenal asset to Newgrounds, and I am so happy you developed it.

Currently, developers who want to explore new music have to delve deep into the audio portal chambers and click little buttons to load music one at a time. There is no way to set up a good playlist or to get a random song going everytime. But because of this system, we can have constant music loading from the Audio Portal.

I tried doing this yesterday at work, and I managed to get through a good 40 songs, and take down about 4-5 new ID's that I will be using in my future productions. All-in-all, this is one of the most helpful Flash submissions I have ever seen.

The interface is slick and complete. The graphics take on the appearance of any other wonderful media player, but beyond that. The UI is well placed and intuitive. The programming looks sophisticated and well thought-out. If music is not loading for some reason, it understands to go to the next song. Brilliantly well done.

Congratulations and thanks so much for this amazing tool. It will be an asset getting through those work days and for the tedious task of finding music.

[Valentine Hugfest]

Needed an upgrade :)

I'm glad you expanded this into a full game. This is one of my favorite games from Firestorm, it definitely needed a blow up to a full game. Nice graphics and gameplay, nice!
