Highscores back up.

The highscores have been taken down for the moment, a NG user named SHITTYFLASHMAN hacked them to death. Pester him.

Prediction: Underdog of the week here I come!

How the menu works: Click the arrows to select your game, then click the card to play it.

Well, it's been a long time since Red & Black, but it's finally here. The goal here: To make a game using only red, white, and blue.

nice abstract graphs, it is not cool that the flames are coming back all the time, so you dont feel you accomplish anything. Gotta praise you for the daring graphic style!

Good colletction

Well I might as well review all of these games individually...
Fireworks
Firstly the negatives. The music in this game was more annoying than anything else, with loud cheesy alost porn like music not matching the style of game at all and being quite distracting. Also the title screen looks absolutelhy horrible, which is a shame as the rest of the game looks pretty good, if simplistic. The gameplay was pretty good, and the explosions actually looked really nice. Perhaps if the houses were all seperate targets though, instead of essentially being a lifebar that goes down if they touch the ground. It would make the game more interesting as later on it gets quit ennoying to be losing health for the bad guys who land on the far end of the screen where there are no houses. Awesome work though!
Zantsu Must Die!
At first when I was playing this, I thought it was going to be some kind of side scrolling beat em up in the style of Streets of Rage. I was slightly dissapointed when I found out it was all pretty much set in the one small alleyway. Still the gameplay here is decent enough, with more a passing resemblance to Devil May Cry, from the characters basic look to the style meter for stringing comboc together. More variety of enemies would be good, instead of just LOADS of the same couple of types. Still this is a game, much like Fireworks and indeed a lot of old school type games, where you play until you die. Good job!
Smash! : RWB
Well this game doesn't look great, the limitations of the Red White and Blue format really restric the visuals. But gameplay here is fantastic, with humour and general knowledge being very good. The picture round actually embraces the format quite well, with seemingly normal pictures made much harder to recognise because of the RWB format. Brilliant quiz!
Life of a Fireman
This is probably the weakest game of the bunch, but is still quite enjoyable. The first level is mercilessly hard, with fires breaking out almost constantly and your water levels depleting far too quickly. The second level is just a race against time, with some ok collision detection with the houses. The thrid level seemed to go on for far too long, with more and more people falling as it goes on. The people were obviously randoly falling as there was a couple of occasions where it was impossible to save someone as 2 people fell at the same tie on opposite ends of the screen. Frustrating!
Overall, this is a strong collection of games, that all embraced the theme of the entry in their own ways. Nice work!

im just copying the guy below me hey guy

Good collection

(title in work)

^^Good Points^^
A good collection of games here that were all themed nicely. I got a kick out of the old Missile Command rendition. That hasn't been seen much here on NG. Definitely my favorite of the bunch.

^^Needs Improving^^
The graphics weren't that great. The theming was good, but a little bit too plain if I do say.

....

Are you sure you're allowed to record the music from Battlefield Vietnam and put it on the game???I'm not sure EA Games would be happy about that...

~The Review~
Good bunch,but it gets boring quickly.If you're going to do this again,be sure to put more thought into it,and take your time.The graphics could be way better along with the music.Not bad,but not good either...
