Reviews for Raid Gaza!

[balar]

it is a sad sad day when games are used as propaga

full disclosure: I am from israel and have just had my university shut down cause of grad rockets dropping all around the city. and I am a lover of flash games and free speach as it is embodied by newgrounds.

the game itself was decent, but it is obvious that it was NOT created out of love for flash or gaming or even satire, but out of a desire to convey a political messege. this game IMHO falls into the same catagory as all other simple games created by an iterested party (usualy corporations make these as commercials "internet marketing"). both those type of games and this game irritate me. I see many people jumping against political comments here. but this game is a political comment in itself and not much more. if there is no room for political comments here.. is there room for this game ?

"his game is a political comment in itself and not much more. if there is no room for political comments here.. is there room for this game ?"

I agree, to me it seems almost pointless debating the game, when there's so little of it. The point of the game is to create discussion on the politics, not on game mechanics.

Funny game

Intersting and painfully close to the truth about what is going on in gaza. Good game, fun concept, but maybe make the timelimit longer. XD

Good for a quick laugh. I liked the elevator music in the background, it really helped to set the tone. :)

And you're a troll.

What's this? Someone who hasn't passed his third grade spelling test trying to act like he's watched the news? Learn to talk coherently. People might start trying to take you seriously. Funny how, near the end of your message, you sink into the exact same description of people killing for fun, or more to your message, an inherently violent group that kills constantly. YOU don't get it do you? It's a joke. A goddamn joke. It's a game. Anyone who gets this fired up about a joke on a site that's known to be recklessly disrespectful with its parodies should be shot. True, this war isn't exactly fun. People die, rockets fly around, etc etc. But here's an author that tries to lighten it up and present the funnier side of it, and you flame him for being himself. You must live a very humorless life. And I guess I do too, having wasted my time on a troll, a noob troll who needs to lern2internet, no less.

As for the game, good job, dude. It's a little... Non-politically correct, but it's decent fun, and a good minigame to blow a few minutes on. I got the "This is incredible... Are you the messiah?" rating, btw. Controversy, yes, so I'll just take a neutral stand here... Coulda used a bit more depth, but it's a minigame, and it was polished and arcade-y. Funny too.
