HeavyTank's game Reviews on Newgrounds

[Hunted Forever]

Are you kidding?

First, even if l know it's forbidden, l would like to respond to the guy that gave this game a zero: asshole.this is nowhere near the worst game ever.you are obvioulsy a n00b..you know how much effort you have to put to create a good flash game?
OK..now that the flaming is over, the proper review will follow:
The game has some awesome animation and nice gameplay..
The lack of a storyline doesen't bother me at all since flash games are for fun not for deep storytelling.
Again, nice work on the animation, it was truly great.

[Warfare: 1917]

Wow!

The graphics reminded me of the The Last Stand series, and this is a good thing!
Lots of things happening on-screen, a lot of units, upgrades, strategic depth and fire support abilities to choose from!
Awesome game, l hope armor games keeps making games as cool as this!

[Mastermind: World Conqueror]

Amazing!

I've been waiting for this game for a looong time, and l can finally play it!
I expected tyhis game to be worse than this, but you surprised me!
This is the first 10 l give since...well it's been at least 4 months!
The anmation was awesome, and the mision cutscenes reminded me of the total war games (the mission is successful if the cutscene shows the characters doing the right things, but if they die of fail, the mission fails too), and l liked the general mission idea..
There are a LOT of upgrades to choose from, a lot of bases, henchmen (who is the last henchman?still a mystery..l can't unlock him..) weapons, special powers, turrets and "mission helpers"..
The game was pretty easy, but you've got to have some skill to finish it (the last mission takes a lot of time to finish)...l won the game by purchasing the moon base and then destroying the Earth (it sounds simple but it isn't).
I didn't find any bugs, and the final cutscene was pretty funny..the tutorial is good, and so are the enemies (lol, superhero?).
The sound was OK, and the gun sounds were perfect.
The only thing that could be improved is the minions..l mean the minions are fine, but it would be great if you could buy vehicles and stronger infantry...
Very fun to play, balanced difficulty level and deep but simple gameplay...you've got to give it a 10..

[Ether War]

Great game!

After an hour of play and sever tries, l finally beat the game with a final score of 21058.
The action is non-stop, the screen filled with dots and lasers, the upgrade screen is very cool and there is a wide variety of upgrades to choose from, and each upgrade can be bought 4 times, with the upgrade being more expensive but giving more power to your ship or allies...l have tried almost all the upgrades, so l can write a walkthrough:
Kill the baloons around your base till you can upgrade you laser to the max, maybe with some shield upgrades in the way, and then attempt to destroy the yellow baloons by circling around them and hitting them non-stop (this is important because they can regenerate)...when you have enough ether you can buy the smart missiles and the support cannon, but you have to ensure that your shield is upgraded to the max.
Camp outside the big red dot and kill the enemies that spawn from there, and when you got all the aforementioned upgrades, kill all the yellow baloons and then go for the red one (and you will probably have enough Ether to buy the triple shot)...at least that's how l won...
The engine upgrades are important because if you are too slow then you can't hit the yellow baloons, so you must have it at least at lv.3.
The reflector upgrade is a bit overpriced and the support ship upgrade is cool but not that useful..
Fun fact: if you want to see all the upgrades and you are about to win, just stay near the red baloon and kill the baloons generated from there, but without killing the red one...so you can get an insane score without risking to lose and when you have all the upgrades or you're just bored you can finish off the boss and go to the hall of fame..
Have fun!

[Swords and Sandals 3:Solo]

Wow...

This is easily the best turn-based flash RPG on newgrounds (with Sonny, that is)...
A load of weapons, abilities, guns and spells, nice char. creation, good storyline, epic bosses and unexplicably weak arena fighters await you in this game!
Oh, and l forgot to mention the music...
The only thing that bothers me in this game (and the only thing that keeps me from voting 9 or 10) is the fact that the game is a DEMO.
So if l don't buy the game (btw the link is not working) l stop playing at the robot boss...why oh why?
And yes l read the author comments, it's just that usually players don't read them..
And l think that the 2 reviewers below me didn't finish the demo so they vote 10 thinking that the game is a full version....
Oh, and what is this Multiplae Ultratus thing?
A multiplayer mode maybe?
OMG!

hechaos responds:

Cheers HeavyTank, great review . If only all reviews as glowing as that haha.

Yeah Multiplayer version is built and nearly ready to launch, just waiting on some website infrastructure to get it up and running.

[Madness Regent]

Good

It was a good game, with the best animation l've ever seen in a game (and when l looked at the authors l understood why).
The gameplay, even if repetitive was fun (but the game could use more weapons for Hank)...it was very short too (and pretty easy, if you can kill the boos with your first or second try) so l give it an 8.

[NewGrounds Fan Quiz]

Nice

Well, considering the fact that you're 12 years old (btw the grammar wasn't that bad, I only noticed 1-2 errors) this is a very good flash, with good animation and good questions..the only downside is that the answers will change in a week, so you will have to remove the quiz to avoid reviews like these: But...there she is!step4 isn't the all-time top scoring...or....the king of the portal is now xiao-xiao etc.

[ECAPS]

Very good!

l liked the weapons and the geometry wars-like gameplay!(but it is easier that GW and l thank you for that!)
Very addictive game, good job!

[Sonny]

Awesome!

I remember playing this game 1 year ago, and l found it very hard and frustrating..now that l played it again l didn't find it THAT hard (l beat the paladin and the baron in the first try, and the other time l tried at least 100 times...seriously!)..l see that you added new content such as the fourth area, which is an awesome idea because you can play againts insanely strong opponents and level up to infinity...l found the story mode too short though....and l could use more weapons....and, on a side note, looted weapons are 4 times better than the weapons in the shops...the characters are very good, and so are the "extra" team members (like Amber)...l would like to level them up too though (with the skill system)..oh, and speaking of the skill system, l must say it is brilliantly done...many skills to choose from!
The music, even if it is a little repetitive, is good, and the animation is perfect...the voice acting was good, but needed more "acting", if you know what l mean..
Another complaint l have is the A.I.
l had my A.I. in the "tactical" mode and it was fine until l battled 3 "illusions"...one illusion was dead, the other had 40 health and the other full health AND shield (btw this ability should be removed, it's too good...l mean, invulnerability for 7 turns?Come on...and withoun almost any magic cost?Unacceptable.....)...and my 2 companions kept hitting the shielded one when any hit could kill the other illusion....needless to say, the wounded illusion healed itself to full health so l had to start over again because of a stupid A.I. mistake...
Even if it has some flaws, this game is one of the best on newgrounds...
l am really looking forward to Sonny 2, keep up the good work, you created a masterpiece!

[Pandemic II]

Deep

l have to say, l never played the original pandemic, but l certainly will now!
This game is one of the best strategy games on newgrounds (probably the best) and it offers a unique gameplay experience that no other game can...the idea of being a virus is awesome!
Of course, this game is hard and has a short learning curve (although learning how to play the game doesen't do the trick-you have to think strategically)..
The animation is..well, there is almost no animation but this doesen't ruin the game...not even a little bit..
The upgrade system is very cool, and so is the genetic points idea (you can see that in Spore too)...l have a question: the "healthy" number doesen't refer just to the people right?
It includes animals and insects...because it is far too large to be only humans...
A lot of options, a lot of thinking and a lot of hours of gameplay before you can kill the entire population of our planet...
A sincere thank you for developing this game...
