[Sword of August]

I'm guessing Kego wasn't paying attention when

THE GAME TOLD HIM THE ALTERNATE CONTROLS INCLUDED THE ARROW KEYS TO ACCOMMODATE THE Z-FIRING BUTTON IF THE WASD CONTROLS DIDN'T WORK OUT FOR YOU.

ANYWAY.

The controls DO work, and they ARE adequate. Now, I havn't gotten very far yet, but I am really enjoying this game, Engrish and all. Makes it feel even more like a translated early-age arcade game, which I found humorous. Not sure if I'm ready to give it a 10, but as I am I'm perfectly happy to give it a 9.

stellarNull responds:

lol thank you, the engrish wasnt on purpose though but now that you enjoyed it, it's a pleasure XD it was it's not our first language XD. anyway thank you for playing and reviewing ^^

[Modern Weapons Quiz 2]

A couple of things stand out, other than

the horrible first music track:

For your question concerning the AK-47, you used the picture of a Nazi German StG44 Sturmgewehr from WWII. The AK is a Russian Assault rifle that came around AFTER WWII. Also... your questions were kinda lame. Who would know that an M203 cost LESS than $1000? That, and if anyone actually wanted to make top scores they could just open another page with Wikipedia or something. OR just click randomly through the game on the first go through, get automatic access to all of the answers, open another window with the game on it, and copy all of the answers.

In other words, you need to:

Eins) delete the first music track
Zwei) Get a picture of an AK-47 instead of an StG44, and
Trei) Make it harder to cheat on.

That said...

Nice effort.

If we make MWQ3 (Modern Weapons Quiz 3) we'll make sure to include all of that, thanks for the friendly criticism. Seriously, comments like yours are much appreciated.

[Interactive Gun V.07]

Hmm...

Let me think...
eins (1) Obviously, more guns and attachments. M1911, Beretta M92, Glock 18c, M1903, M14, M16, Mini 14, AK-47, FN FAL, Sturmgewehr MP44 / StG44 , etc etc etc. Go crazy.
zwei (2) The M1 is NOT a 7.62 NATO rifle. 7.62X51 is the military equivalent of the .308 Winchester, NOT the 30-06. The 30-06 was originally a purpose-built military cartridge that first saw action in WWI, after the Second World War is when NATO was started and the namesake .556 NATO and 7.62 NATO were created for the armed forces of NATO members.
drei (3) Add the "ping" sound for the M1 ejecting the empty box mag automatically when all 8 rounds are spent.
vier (4) Try to animate a realistic recoil for the guns, and also try your hand and drawing them instead of using pictures. It will look more awesome, trust me.
fünf (5) The Glock is set to shave off the top round from the magazine while cocking it, and also auto-fires a round or two after reloading. Could you try to fix that please?

These are just a few suggestions, but what you already have is pretty good. It certainly has a lot of potential.

zlix12 responds:

Thanks for the info, I'll fix that up in the next installment

[MC 5.5 Scene Creator]

Hmmm... needs more.

1) NEEDS MORE PARTS.
2) NEEDS MORE ROOM TO USE SAID PARTS
3) NEEDS MORE VARIATIONS OF PARTS (outfits, weapons, faces, muzzle-flash etc.)
4) Also, your cars come in two pieces, which is a little awkward.
5) NEEDS MORE MUSIC OPTIONS

Try having a whole bunch of soldier variants, like Madness 19th century army uniforms, WWI, WWII, etc. Just because they look cool.
Also, I absolutely love the inclusion of the new 45. ACP Submachinegun.
Get more imaginative- Fantasy swords would be epic, along with maybe some ultra-high-tech weapons. That or Covenant Plasma Rifles. Or both.
Try to make it that the items that go onto the background FIRST stay BEHIND the items that go onto the background AFTER. I can't make them dual-wield because the left hand weapon (when facing right) overlaps the right-hand weapon. (And vice-versa.)

Basically, fix a few bugs and the UPSCALE EVERYTHING!
*more weapons
*more outfits
*GIANTS
*more effects
*more music options
*more background options
more space

Try to make it that there is so MUCH stuff that you could never possibly cram it all on screen, unless you use a panel system that you click on a box on the side of the screen, it slides onto the screen to reveal everything in it's category, click the box again to close it, and have a box for everything (weapons, effects, outfits, corpses, etc.)
That's all I can think of for now. ~117

XRoadKillX responds:

DUDE, this is a Madness Combat 5.5 Scene Creator all of that stuff IS NOT IN MADNESS COMBAT 5.5 learn to read.

[Quick Draw Tutorial]

Well...

Honestly I have no clue what a flash tutorial SHOULD look like, but this looked pretty good to me. Simple, but it gets the point across.

Rabid-Animals responds:

Thanks. Flash is easy when instructions are kept simple.
