Reviews for "Newgrounds HQ Showdown"

Hmm

This one sucked, the art made me think you have some issues and the gameplay was way too easy, I liked the Intro and the music, otherwise you did had no stars.

Lochie refuses to grow up

Back when you made IWBTFG, you displayed such a childish attitude saying all your programming bugs were intended features. Now you are back trying to rip off Portal Defenders, only with much worse artwork, crappy programming, and tons of childish lame jokes.

Grow up.

Why don't you study Portal Defenders a bit more thoroughly and actually try to surpass it, instead of being satisfied with submitting a sub-par piece of flash like this?

Lochie responds:

Didn't even notice it resembled portal defenders.
Thanks for pointing that out for me mate.

Mediocre at best

Seriously though, why does this game have so many medals? It's fucking godawful, you just mash attack through a bunch of totally the same enemies. It's like the last newgrounds fighting game but worse in EVERY POSSIBLE WAY. Be ashamed of yourself.

Repetitive

Each level is the same, boring level. Two starts because you have a trident.

Also, you drew Tom Fulp super buff and his wiener. Just think about that for a second, maybe this will awaken something inside of you.

Well...

...ever heard of checkpoints? That's the most important thing in video gaming history.
It automatically sucks for not having checkpoints, that's a fact.

Also, weapons are the same thing, only with different designs.
Only one attack. No combos or anything. It's just the same boring shit, over and over again.
"Defending" yourself is useless, since as soon as you stop pressing S, there will be loads of enemies around you doing their best to kill you.
The character movement is ridiculous. He has the agility and speed of a blind paraplegic turtle. If you turn around for a little bit, enemies will catch up with you in seconds and take you down.

You get a 0/10, and a 2/10.
One point is for having lots of references to NG history.
The other one is for having a storyline with potential, although it wasn't explored as it should.
