Hoekzema's game Reviews on Newgrounds

[Insane Orb]

Wow just wow. This game Is so awesome! At the beginning I was terrible, but after a while I started to get the hang of it.

I feel like I am now ready to be launched into space or something. No really all astronauts should train using this game!

[Age of Defense 4]

Such a major dissapointment

*sigh* I actually wrote a review about Age of War 2 once stating all the below. Your constantly doing the same stuff and your not doing anything new or better.
To be a fair sport it still is a good game, but if you upload the same game 3 times it doesn't mean you're getting the same credit 3 times.

Really just do something new, or give this a bigger metamorphose. The part where you have to control your defense guy is slightly new.

I agree with D-code that it doesn't make ANY sense at all that you have to purchase skills for characters that you don't even own. I played part 1/2/3 to the end, but I'm not bothering with this one.

You are still in my favorite author's list, because your games have entertained me in the past and I know that you have the skills to do so again, but seriously do it...

And write some damn new music!

[Rebuild]

Perfecting an old concept.

Wow amazing,

This game was really entertaining I actually played until day 139, which must have taken over an hour.
These kind of games have been done before, so this isn't exactly new. It does however perfect an old concept.

I really laughed how the zombie thing started in Holland, because there was a tulip eating cult. Hehe Being Dutch that was quite funny. :D
Once anybody here starts eating tulips I'll shotgun their heads!

The only thing that was really painful to see in this game where the zombie attack interludes. Apparently you're a very good programmer, but that animation with the zombies sort of sliding towards the fence was just to painful to watch. (Thanks though for the skip option)
For a sequel I'd advise cramping up the graphic's but thats pretty much it actually.

[Bulletsss]

Fun, but you can cheat.

Fun little game.

It's really cool how you can stand on bullets and use them to launch yourself through walls. People who are complaining about instructions should really try to look a little better. There were lots of small x's, z's and drawing which made it obvious that some lines kill you and that bullets can't pass through other lines.

Theres one big flaw in this game. if you stand on the floor hold the down arrow and shoot you jump really high right? Yes, that works all good. But if you hold down and tap the X button really fast you can actually do that jumping mid air. Which makes it really easy to reach high places.

if you would remove the double jump. It would be a good game. (obviously I could also just not cheat, but I can't help it :P)

[The Undead Survival Test]

Great!

Jeeeej I got an A+ 91%. 5 years or Indefinite! This is a fun little Test.

I like the fact how it's not just questions but how theres also mini games. The falldown thing with the zombies chasing you was a classic.

But the best was the bloody scary stuff. I actually went to the movies yesterday to see a horror about Sinterklaas. Which is like a Dutch Santa Claus.
I almost pissed myself here :)

[Larry And The Gnomes]

hm well. hard but amazingly well done

Everything about this game is a showcase of perfection and dedication.
moonkey is a programmer from another planet. This game is amazing and I couldn't see any real Glitch.

Graphics were alright, Art was amazing.
The music seemed to fit and it definitely gave this game the edge.

Now I am well aware of the fact that you mention the bosses and how hard it might be to beat them, but this is just insane.
I count myself as an experienced gamer who had finished multiple games in the past including Paladin the Game. yet I just couldn't beat the 2nd boss.
It was seriously frustrating and well it alraidy kind of ruined it for me.

I'm guessing there is some sort of strategic maneuver you have to use I dunno walk diagonal, or jump slash or something. But throwing the damn spears at the boar just didn't do it for me :S I think I got about 10% from his health bar.

A well me being incompetent and failing in beating the game apart.
This thing is definitely amazing, but I'd rather just see a few more episodes. It's Frustrating that i can't follow this game's story because I can't beat the game -__-.

Larry is probably Pico's grang-grand-grand parent or something. ^_ ^

Thank you great artists for making something this awesome. I couldn't beat the game at Easy, so perhaps you can make a sissy boy easy later on or just make a movie out of all the cut scenes.

Cheers and Rock on,

Taco

[Age of War 2]

Is this a sequel or just an upgrade?

Well this game is still good.
I was kinda disappointed though, because this sequel is EXACTLY the same as the first part. Well maybe the graphic's are a bit different and the units, upgrades are a bit more specific, but THAT's really it.

Part one was an amazing game, don't get me wrong this game is still awesome, but it didn't really have any NEW features.

You are definitely a great flash programmer. I hope that there will be a third game.
Perhaps you can could do something similar to age of empires. Because now the evolving goes: Cavemen, Romans, Egyptians??

When did Italians evolve into Egyptians?

You know pick your own nationality and evolve within that.

Anywho, this is definitely a great game and I'm having loads of fun with it.
Though I'm not giving it a perfect 10, because it feels like a slight upgrade of the first game.

[iPirates]

great, could be better

Fun game, very addictive.
This would do great when mixed with a rpg/strategy game

I liked the art style and the animations,
Sound was a bit repetitive, but other than that a great game.

Not really original it's been done before (tradewinds)
If you would make a sequel out of this you should definitely try a tradewinds demo and get some idea's.
better stolen with good quality then made up badly.

werlesss responds:

Thanks! We will think about that ;)

[Alice is Dead - Ep 2]

now it's clear

Great game,
I didn't play the first one, but I sure as hell am going to.
I'm not giving a 10 because of the shortness of the game.

'March' on Mad Hatter

[Frontier]

Great

Great game the only problem was that I couldn't find a repair vehicle button (wink wink)

other than that it was good
