Brilliant

I really enjoyed this flash (Prehaps because i'm a big otaku, but all the same), I found the music to be really catchy, and ran off to grab the song for myself to play on repeat. You captured the style of anime really well with this flash, and I have very few complaints about the graphics, the only thing I can say is that sometimes it was blatantly obvious that you copied an image, and pasted it into flash, but other than that, very nice. I honestly can't find words to explain it, just great job on it.

I loved it

I've listened to that Ghostmas carol at least 17 times now... I reckon I have it memorized now =D Is there some way I can download it?

The-Swain responds:

Yes, on my site now :D

I lol'd

That was great! I love the style of it! I'll never be able to get that song out of my head...

Ninja of the niiiiight!!

The-almighty-EK responds:

Dude, try listening to it 2,000 times while making the flash. O_oU. My boyfriend said I was singing it my sleep.

Not Horrible

Let me preface the negative part of this review with some things I enjoyed in your version of Tetris.

- I felt you captured Tetris well; Which most flash versions do not.
- The 'item' system was a great way to make your version unique.
- The horizontal clear item was a great thing to have added on to a Tetris. Can't complain about a five line clear.
- The 'Push Down' item was a fantastic addition. I found it helped immensely.
- The graphics were great; The nuke and hard drop effects were done well.
- The overview of the game once you lost was cool.

Now for the negative, which there's more of, simply because they stand out more.

- There's no soft drop. That really hurts the game.
- You don't get any additional score for hard drops.
- The nuke item makes the game WAY easier than it should be.
- The vertical clear item hurts a lot more than it helps. If you have a bunch of tetris' lined up and then you mess up, have to make a one line clear, and accidentally hit this powerup, boom, you have to use a bunch of line tetriminos so that you can make those tetris'.
- When you pause the game, you can still see the game board. This completely negates the reason for the tetriminos falling.
- When you pause, the items still change.
- If you are a player that uses hard drop a LOT, like I do, then the hard drop sound effect gets extremely annoying, very quickly.
- When you unpause, the music starts over.
- The items changed too rapidly to really be something to aim for. They became more of a 'Well, if I get it, awesome.' thing.

All in all, good game, but it could have been pulled off better. In the future, I'd like to see you make another, improved version, of this idea.

Very helpful review! I wish everyone could respond as constructively as you.

These will be fixed:
- When you pause the game, you can still see the game board. This completely negates the reason for the tetriminos falling.
- When you pause, the items still change.
- The items changed too rapidly to really be something to aim for. They became more of a 'Well, if I get it, awesome.' thing.

A note about item blocks: they are not all necessarily helpful and it might be in your best interest to avoid certain items in certain situations. The column piece being the most annoying as well as a nuke when you're building up blocks. Some items will have a negative effect on your game...a new challenge to consider while playing!

Great game, but could have been better.

I found this to be a good little time waster, however I must express that I think it could have been better in a lot of ways.

First of all, it was WAY too easy. I got a 1,000,000 point photo on stage one.

Second, I was expecting a much wider variety of fish. The rarer of the fish were the ones you saw every level anyway. I'm assuming the White Tipped Shark was the rarest, because I only saw that once. On stage four.

Third, far too short. You could have expanded upon the concept a lot more, and I think it would have resulted in the game being a lot more fun.

All in all though, great game. Original, for NG. And I'm sure it was a bitch to script, so kudos on that. I can't even begin to think about how to script the point system.

Very Helpful

I have to say, this tutorial has helped me more than any other tutorial on Newgrounds, personally, I love the fact that theres no copy+pasting, it really does help, I just look through your codes for the games and figure out how to do things I didn't know, and stuff like that. Awesome awesome tutorial, I look forward to more from you.
