Reviews for "Jack Russell"

Wow

Wow. I acually got a Newgrounds account just so I could review this game, author, and other reviewers.
First, let's talk about the game. Of all the front page submissions I have seen in the past few years, this ranks very close to the bottom. Each level can be beaten with little to no effort and in under 10 seconds. Unless, of course, the game messes up, as it does very often, and the dog falls through the drawn lines, or even the made platforms. Since when does lazy coding deserve a 10 overall submission? I would let this pass more readily if you didn't actually say in one of your answers to reviewers that you were too lazy to fix anything. How appalling. Also, the levels themselves are so repetitive that I actually thought I was playing the same levels again. And again. Probably the best levels were the ones with moving parts, but it was impossible to plan for these levels, because the parts would move back to their original location when you pressed "go." Very little imagination was put into this game.
Secondly, I understand that it is frustrating that reviewers would give zeros just because they couldn't get the game to work. However, I find it ridiculous for you to post base comebacks to your critics, especially when you don't thank your supporters. Besides, your point is always that the reviewer doesn't make games, so they shouldn't be talking. This is, perhaps, the least valid argument ever made. Aren't there movie critics in the world who don't make movies? Food critics that don't cook? There are people that set trends in fashion that don't design clothes. There are sports commentators that don't coach or play (at least anymore). The fact is, people are allowed to have opinions, whether they support your material or not, and by posting your material on Newgrounds, it becomes subject to anyone who has access to the internet. It would be much more wise if you would read their criticisms, consider them, and then make your games better using these criticisms. Instead, you immaturely dismiss them as ignorant. Maybe this is the reason you will always be begging for donations off of your website instead of making real money with your talent.
In closing, I don't encourage you to stop making games. I don't encourage you to get off the internet. I don't taunt you with unimaginitive insults. I simply hope that you will start putting your all into your work and grow up.

First of all, I'm not a lazy coder. I wasn't able to fix all the bugs because I don't know IK very well. But I shouldn't be talking about scripting to you because you never made a game before.

Next, You're really stupid by saying it's bad that the moving parts go back to their original space, because when they don't, you have to gamble if the dog makes it or not. When they do go to their original position, you can see where the dog and mine make contact and modify your path so they don't contact anymore. Too difficult to explain to someone who doesn't know a thing about scripting. Anyways, next...

I'm always making the comment that they should make a game theirselfs first to let them see how difficult it is to fix the bugs they notify.

Next, I can't help that people are too stupid to install Flash 8 so the game works. I even warn for it in the author's comments!

And if you want to know, all the donations go in stuff to make my games better. For example better licenses, better programs and better stuff for my computer. I make the most money out of the sponsoring money.

I got US$700 for the game, HC$369820 for donations, I don't know how much the donation is, but I don't think it's very much.

And I had a real hard time reading your text since you never heard of subparagraphs!

so sad

I have to give it a poor score because the dog dies so sad *sniff* i wish you did not make it die he is o cute to kill never ever played again you should not do that i hate you! :( :( :( :( :( :( :( :( if you did not make him die then i would give it a good score.

I Agree

Utter Crap :L

Its got potential but calling someone a loser for playing your game, isn't how you get plays or good reviews. You might even get it taken down. If you want people to play maybe not call them losers. Since its impossible to get past the last level. So remember. I will never play your games. I will recommend to my friends but i doubt they want to play after that.
