Reviews for "NSG001: 4 Bats, 1 Ball"

kewl

yep i voted a fiven to!
You gave this entry a 5, raising its score to 2.45!

AcidDimensions responds:

Glad you like it.

Next time, if you explained why, it'd help me.

Addictive!

A good challenge level here. It gets easier and easier to choke as the time winds down to zero. I got 65 points once :)

One suggestion is perhaps to allow a higher maximum speed so it gets even more tricky to slice, but the current speed definately doesn't lack intensity.

This game is innovative, simple, and fun. It shows off that you have a lot of good ideas up your sleeve. Stay Funky!

AcidDimensions responds:

Glad you enjoy it.

It was meant to be totally different, but I had some problems and decided to go in a different direction.

The fact that you've enjoyed it so much is the primary factor in my decision to maybe redo this at some point.

Faster max. speed, faster min. speed, speed increasing with score and mebbe sound. Oh and I'll forget about making a high score table for this and just keep it for the next iteration.

I need to finish the full 'Asteroids' animation first though.

Cheers for a truly excellent and encouraging review. I rate your review 9/10.

I love reading your reviews. :)

Stay funky yourself.

Ingenious

Cool twist on the Squash games. Could do with maybe some improvement to graphics, and maybe 3 lifes, but all-in-all, great idea!

AcidDimensions responds:

Thanks. :)

I honestly don't know what I could do to the graphics to make them better, so if you have any more specific suggestions, please e-mail me.

I definitely disagree that it should have 3 lives - I mean, with a time limit of just over 30 seconds, you shouldn't really lose even one life once you've gotten the hang of it.

Thanks a lot for the praise. :D

very good idea

but you shoudl really try and develop the gameplay a bit

AcidDimensions responds:

Thanks!

I will definitely do so at some point.

So many ideas, so little time...

Not your best

It was pretty fun, I admit. But it wasn't your best and here's why I think it's not. Usaully your games are so.. complex so new. But this one is just vertical and horizontal pong at the same time! Which isn't bad but your other stuff is much better

AcidDimensions responds:

I'm amazed at how high you rated it, reading your words.

Glad you enjoyed it and I hope you agree that the aim of the game (to keep it fast, rather than to just hit it) is at least a different slant.

But whilst I wouldn't say my prior stuff was any more original (something I'm not proud of) I definitely agree it could be a lot better.

I ran into development problems and my original idea for this had to be scrapped. Maybe when my action script is better...
