[Age of War]

Nice work

I enjoyed this game, even if it was a bit repetitive.

I beat it in normal mode as follows: go to last age, build 4 best defensive turrets, then wait till you have 550k (from your turrets shooting the incoming enemies, they can't harm you because your turrets are too strong), then sell all your own turrets to have some 200k more money, and build 5 of the best unit. Then your 5 units simply own the enemy (combine with the special to make them win faster) and victory!

That was normal mode though, I must still try the harder modes.

I'm not sure if it's a bug of my flashplugin (which sometimes doesn't display text) or something missing in the game itself, but I had no info about anything like the price of buying a unit. If that's not due to my flashplugin bug, then, it could be a good addition to the game to have some info about the units you can buy show up if you hover above it with the mouse.

Keep Shooting

Good game, because I like this type of game, also the XP system.

One little annoyance is that you have to hold down or keep pressing "a" to shoot arrows, instead of them shooting automatically.

A way I found to auto-shoot anyway is: hold down the "a" key, then press with your mouse on a different window and release the "a" key. Then the flash game thinks you keep down the "a" key forever, until you press and release it again.

Mochiads

The game never starts. It just says forever "looking up mochiads.com". mochiads.com is down, even if trying to go the the URL regularly. Mochiads being down prevents this game from starting! That is really bad coding of that ad system imho! If mochiads stops one day, all these games like this will never be playable anymore.

your little armorgames.com deal

Nice game, but if you're not going to post the 100% full game on NG and only 90% of it with things inside the game pestering you to go to armorgames.com to view the full content, then DON'T POST IT AT NEWGROUNDS AT ALL, OK?

It's hard

This game is very good, but it's also very hard. I enjoy playing it, but the enjoyment ends at a point where it's impossible to go further.

I don't know, the rewards just aren't THAT good, and you can only carry a few of them too.

Too many kinds of enemies, are way too complex to slash, making the sword pointless.

Beating the small nest is possible AND fun. Beating the medium one is not something I'm going to achieve though. There's a point where there are, no matter what, too many critters on screen that can NOT be beaten by swinging them. This includes boulders, sharpies (1 second no spikes during which they're beatable for minutes long of rolling around with spikes is not fair), greys (possible to beat but not once there are manny critters), horrors, ...

I know there's a bigger sword if you can beat a queen. However, even after me playing this game for multiple hours, there are certain monster types that I have never even encountered, despite playing all game types even in hardcore mode! No fire things, no ice things and no queens seen so far and I have no idea when I will see those or what to do to get them. So how am I going to get that sword, that will be needed to enjoy the rest of the game, if the monsters needed for it don't even appear, and if probably to be able to beat a queen you'll in fact NEED that very sword?

So in conclusion, FUN (so high score from me), but too hard, at a certain point it's not possible to continue. The rewards should be better and it should be possible earlier already to somehow upgrade your sword.

Is it supposed to be hard to ignore her?

Gloves

What man, I lost both arms, and then won a pair of gloves!

Rustygames responds:

I was going to make an "irony bonus". I'm glad lots of people picked up that joke too :D

I just saw that south park episode and then searched NG to find this flash. It's great :)

Great game!!

This game was great! It's the edition I liked the most so far. Not too long but still long enough, and challenging secrets. But it was pretty lame that the secret character was Mel Gibson!

[Pandemic II]

Madagascar

Cool game.

After multiple attempts, I could finally win because the virus started in Madagascar. If it doesn't start there, it appears to be almost impossible to get Madagascar infected...
