edhe's game Reviews on Newgrounds

[Cowlorful]

Brilliant game, great concept...

Cute and simple style with a high incentive to replay levels for the bonus hats and a 100% completion.

However, I encountered a bug which (annoying at first), as I predicted would prevent me from completing it. Namely, on resetting your position after getting into an impossible situation, or indeed being reset after getting knocked down (kill is such an inappropriate word for a cute game like this!), crates would shift upwards slightly.
Therefore, when I got to a point in the game, cocked up and reset my position, my character could not fit through a gap between the ceiling and a crate (which through the bug is placed slightly higher than it should be).

The music is varied and fits well with the style, although I think it should probably loop more seemlessly.

Otherwise, I enjoyed it. The customisation of your bull with funny hats is an interesting feature.

Good, but tricky...

The gameplay is a bit difficult to get used to, and the voices are often difficult to hear, but the belts system, the varied fighters and even the unique intros and TKOs are nice ideas.

[Ching Chong Beautiful]

It took me a while, but I completed it on medium..

People seems to have an issue with the controls and the physics, but if this played like Mario, the challenge would disappear. It is based on a Japanese Challenge show after all.

The music was an excellent selection of tunes that fitted the levels perfectly (my favourite being, the voice acting was equally well utilised.

Regarding gameplay, the challenge is certainly there, though on levels up to medium, it is only a matter of time anyway. The medals are the key to "Ching Ghong Beautiful", and certainly require you to hone your skills on a level to truly master it.

Finally, the animation was fluid and the presentation tight, which makes this a great piece of work.

It is difficult, and I may never bring myself to slog all the way through it and earn the medals, but I'll certainly have fun with it.

[Soldiers' Defense]

Very frustrating...

I would really like this if I could play it, but by wave 28, with 5 miniguns and a rocket launcher, 400 troops are still marching through my tower.

Because of this, it's not like all the other 'defense' games on Newgrounds, because once you reach a certain weapon (and with the use of auto guns), you're pretty much safe.

I doubt i'll ever manage to get to a point on this game where, i'm comfortable, but I suppose that's what the game should be like, but it'll frustrate me to know i'll probably not be able to finish this (i.e acquire that last laser weapon)

The music and graphics are suitable too.

Thank you

Getting a nostalgic feeling...

Reminds me of the surfing event on "california games" on the NES - that was about 7 years ago. The scoring system is a lot better, and it generally looks nice, but you could have put a few more elements into it like you did with "ultimate snake", rather than make a prettier version - like "lunar(missile)command".

[Movies: A How-To Guide]

Not bad, as far as tutorials go...

...although you could, however have made it even better by adding animation to help describe some of the tasks - that would clear up any confusion anyone might have.

Hmmm...good idea. :)

Well done.
