Scratch

Generation 4000 By Borrego6165

Total rating: 37/50

Programming~9 This type of game is really hard to make on Scratch. Unlike others, who rely on broadcasts to make a big game, you used lots of variables and lists.

Graphics~10 Loved the graphics! It must of taken a lot of work to make all those costumes.

Gameplay~7 Quite glitchy but I still loved the game. Very addicting.

Idea~5 I've seen these games all over Scratch. This is the best one that I have seen, but not very original.

Sound~6 Great choice of music! But it doesn't really fit the theme. I still like it.

Cyber Defense By Zparx

Total rating: 39/50

Programming~6 The scripts are quite average. Uses lots of broadcasts and variables. That doesn't change how great the game is though.

Graphics~7 The graphics are really good! But you could use more detail.

Gameplay~9 One of the best tower defense games I have ever played.

Idea~ 8 Very original!Tower defense games have been around a long time. But this one is unique.

Sound~9 Very catchy! Totally goes with the theme of the game.

let's share our thoughts and discus this review...

really glitches should come under programming, so i don't mind losing points there if I'll get more for gameplay. and if you're talking about the arrows not working I fixed that. Also, I've noticed a lot of people mention glitches about my games, but they never specify, like with my Rayman 4 everyone complained but I found none. The thing which makes people think this is glitchy might not be because there's a glitch, but because the game acts a certain way and the player is not expecting it.

thanks about the graphics! honestly I'd have given myself just 8 because of the theme park, but I guess you never got around to building that far! i'm so glad it's the most expensive building on the list! really I should get more for idea, how many other games have advisers, and when you use a cheat it changes to an evil advisor who changes looks like a vampire and gives you bad advice? the idea section (although this is based on city games alike) should allow bonus points for games which take that classic genre and add special twists rather than just literally remaking it. did Simcity4 or any of it's predecessors include tourism?

Sorry I talk a lot, this isn't an argument just a few pointers that I think need clearing up. Who knows, if I've written it well enough you might be persuaded to change the score.

also, Dawn of the City is like the god mode from SC4, the second is a fast paced broadway song and the third is a more epic-style song for when you're glancing at your creation. The title music in the menu I think suits well too. just thought I'd explain what made me choose these. shouldn't I get at least 1 extra point for including a playlist and a soundpatch? the soundpatch allows more songs and the playlist allows you to select which ones play and which skip. Furthermore, there is a sound effect for every building when you place them.

Other than those things I totally agree with you

The reason I put glitches in the gameplay section was because the glitches show when you play the game. But when inspecting the programming it's really hard to find glitches. Especially when there is more then 500 scripts.

I guess this is more original then other SimCity themed games. But I still think that I will keep the rating at a five, because the theme is very similar to a lot of games I've played.

I agree with you on the music though. You do deserve an extra point. I will edit the review.

Thanks for you feedback! If you would like me to review more projects, just ask!

Bump!

Could you review my projects, "I'm So Proud of You"? There's Part 1 and Part 2. I would prefer you don't grade them separately, because they were supposed to be one project, but I really didn't want it to lag, so I had to divide it, and the second half ended up being about half the length of part 1. Thanks!

Programming~7 Great job! I like how short you made the scripts but yet easy to understand.

Graphics~6 The graphics are really good but also really simple.

Gameplay~8 Super fun! I love how long it is and how much fun it is. But has a lot of glitches.

Idea~10 I have never seen a game like this on Scratch. Super original!

Sound~0 No sound at all. You should include music.

I've taken most everything you said into consideration for the sequel, Everything Will Be Okay. I've already put three songs on it, I've done a LOT of bug-fixing with the engine, I've tried to go a little more in-depth with the graphics. I'm also going to go deeper into a story line. Thank you so much for your review, and I think it's funny that it got the exact same score as the one above. 

Could you please review this?

Thumbs Up By exp2012.

Total rating: 24/50

Programming~4 A lot of short scripts that didn't have much effect on the game. Try to lessen the amount of scripts.

Graphics~4 Kind of bland. Although I like the 8-bit style.

Gameplay~5 The game was great! It could be more fun though.

Idea~4 I have seen way too many games like this on Scratch. Not very original.

Sound~7 I liked the music. Very catchy.

Thanks for the review! I'm still learning, and I'm going to try to add the things you said to the game. I really want to try and get a score over 30 

I would suggest adding bigger green ones that come less often, that are worth 5 points, and a lot more red ones. Maybe even a big red one that's harder to dodge. You could even add in some coins, or other fingers ( ) that add to a different variable that factors into your score.
