Reviews for "Atom Juggler"

Awsome...

good physics, good actionscripting, good game, and good music

Jindo responds:

Awesome review, thanks :).

Great game but...

This is a great game dont get me wrong I enjoyed it until I got to 5 atom balls.. then it was just impossible to keep a combo going and keep my health bar up. You should do something with power ups like exchange your points you gain for power ups like longer board that last couple minutes, or slow motion atom balls, or larger atom balls to hit. ya know

Jindo responds:

^ I can't tell from that if you already knew about the power-ups or not.

Keep bouncing until your hits reach about 100, then press 'P' and purchas Growth II, that should help =P.

Thanks for the review!

not bad at all!

I didn't play a long time but that's because I'm a little tired... but the game is good! The variation you made from the classic use of a pad and a ball in a game is quite nice. I suppose you can't play for hours because of the routine and the difficulty (I was a little messy with only 3 balls, so...) but the game is good!
bravo
2 things, though :
the animation of the smoke when the ball hit the pad could be a liiiiitlllllle beter... with more frames and a slower vanishing...
and the screen is a bit too small... my cursor was often off-stage and I think that when you're juggling with 23415 balls, it must be a problem...

Jindo responds:

Thanks for the review, and in answer to the 2 things:

It's fast because the game runs at 45 fps (really fast), but I can try to improve on it ;).

The screen's size suited it best, if it was bigger at all, it would've spoilt it a bit, that's why the power-ups are there ;). (You can also only get 20 balls max).

anyway, thanks for the review :)!

Good Idea

Good new idea, and pretty nice graphics.
The game ended up just pissing me off because it was impossible to juggle all those atoms at once. Still, really good game

Jindo responds:

Yeah it does get insnae towards the end ;), you'll really need the power-ups.

The max number of atoms you can get to is about 20 I think :P.

Thanks for the review :)!

Pretty good

It was a good and an excellent idea but there are two glaring things that ruin it a little bit -

1. Colours - on the grey levels I found it hard to see the balls seperate from the background - this brought down the graphics points

2. Powerups - Instead of having short powerups, why not have them permenant and simply have it in smaller chunks and for higher amounts.

3. Gravity - The amount the 'atoms' bounced by decreased as time went on - realistic yes but annoying and if one fell you then had one that wanted to bounce a huge amount straight away which made it nearly impossible to do.

Jindo responds:

Thanks for the review, and in answer to your "two" problems:

1. Yeah it was originally harder, until I added the shine, as long as you can see the small whiter dots, its easier to see, plus they're easier to see anyway once they're closer to the bottom since the background is lighter down there.

2. Trust me, Permenant(sp?) lasers didn't go down well with some of the other sites this game was shown to xP.

3. Skill is required, and sometimes you'll have to let the occasionaly atom drop by, I plan on adding a health power-up to the newgrounds game, so that might help you out.
