[Pico: Ace Attorney]

Very nice

This is a faithful combination of two franchises and has few flaws. The game did feel a bit too silent and should have been size optimized. But this is only minor flaws, the story and the gameplay easily beats those hands down. It's not perfect, but it's geat.

thank you

[As3 Preloder Tutorial]

Lacks deepth

Uhm, aren't programming tutorials supposed to work properly?
And where is the even more interesting stuff? Like how to not get a white preloader and why that happens?
And seriously, do you even know about the smulate download feature in flash? You should not only have used it to verify that the movie worked properly, but also mentioned it in the tutorial.

Work harder, you have the spirit, but the execution lacks.

BlackTurnip responds:

You are of course right, i should have included the simulate download (I think i will include it as soon as i get time, so thank you for the suggestion : ) )

[The Torture Chamber III]

Same old, same old

Been there, done that, this is not a lot of new material. You need much more new material. But I have to say that the last finisher was a good parody.
And how lame is it to go black on one of the finishers?

[Genghis Khan]

Broken

Needs more gameplay testing.
Once you get some units to a high level, you've won.

[-Platform Tutorial-]

Prety darn original

Well, this is something innovative.
But next time, please please don't just use the "copy this and this and this and this..." system. Seriously, people simply will not learn. That's like expecting people to learn Finish by letting them write copies of some book that is in Finish.
And then we get more clueless people in the forum. If they don't learn, you are hurting us all, they don't learn squat, you get flooded with stupid questions and the forum keeps getting stupider.

Also, maybe you should move to as 3, it's much cooler and faster.
Not to mention easier to work in, now we got a proper object system and only one event system.

4/10 is a relativly high rating by me for a tutorial, you should see how tough I am.

FeindishDemon responds:

I must agree, but I didn't have enough stage space to explain all the code. Plus, most people who use the tutorial would probably only go for the code anyway, and not even bother reading the explanations. It's bothersome to write, and in most cases, probably not worth it.

Also, I doubt anyone who wouldn't bother reading the explanations probably wouldn't understand them anyway.
I do get your point though. I barley ever go to the flash forum, and I have actually only posted there twice. Anyway. I've noticed many people have problems with this code.

This proves your point even more, because I used the same exact code in the tutorial as I explained. I beta tested all the code, and forced all my friends to beta test it as well. So If anybody actually did get a bad outcome, well... you see.

I do agree entirely.
But a 4?!?!?!

:(

[Maze Man]

Losy control

You got a great looking game, but I can't move properly, the controlls are not working properly a lot of the time.

TheGameHomepage responds:

What's happening? Drop me a PM if you have the chance as I'd like to look into it if there's a problem :S

Thanks!

[ASN - Keyboard Input]

Wow, an as tutorial that didnt suck

Congratulations, you managed to make a tutorial that did not suck.
It may be short, but it does it's job perfectly.

ETERNALGAM3R responds:

I'm glad you liked the tutorial and that you found that it didn't suck, lol. I do agree with you when you say there are a lot of bad ones out there.

[CORE]

Broken

Preloader is broken, the game is unplayable.
It gives an actionscript error.

[Lyric Master: Christmas]

Same old bug again?

Come on, you should have an unit test to make sure that 0 points doesn't trigger this bug by now.
That is, I get the perfect grading when I didn't score a single point.

[Bomb -The Game-]

Stuck on 2-2

For a bomberman ripoff, this was very nicely done.
To bad I got stuck on 2-2. I was going back up on a log, after reaching shore, drowning and blowing a slug up, at about the same second.
This resulting in me being stuck on a log, moved all the way to the left and even with the stock having moved away, being stuck.
