"Excellent"

Really a superb game in almost every way. I know that a lot of people are saying it's too difficult, but I'm proud to say I beat on the third try. On that note though I would say that the level of difficulty is appropriate to the game, but the lack of a continue or save feature just makes it feel like you're trying to punish the player. The weapons and ship upgrades were very nice, though I think the rockets and missiles could have used a little work. I don't know why you had the rocket icon show two rockets at once when you could only fire one at a time, but that's not that important.

The only other thing I would bring up is that in the last few levels it seemed like the enemies were able to seriously confuse the tracking missiles. There would be several large enemies on the screen at once, but when you fire a missile, a small little bird would dart in and take the hit, which is a real waste of a shot.

Overall I think you have a good formula, and more levels would be nice, but only with a save feature.

Also, you could consider more varied powerups, such as shields and the like.

"Been done before"

submission: Mad Mech

date: August 7, 2008

It's sad to put this in a review, but this is almost an exact copy of games that have been done many times before. In terms of gameplay, it's good, but nothing new or original. I would almost go so far as to say that it was stolen, but I know that's not the case. It's just unimaginative.

I mean really, you didn't even use new graphics for most of the items or enemies. This is exactly like that chopper game but with a mech instead of a chopper.

Score: 7

"The game is pretty generic, but still fun."

You'll have to forgive the Newgrounds population on the music; they're a bit young.

All I can say for them is, "I love the smell of napalm in the morning."
