Yeah, you'd have to add some sort of interactivity at least.

I realize that 1) most of you probably don't have Grid Wars (see first post in this thread) and 2) don't really give a shit about music matching up well with games, but if you get a chance, play this song:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0RsdMs-Whlo
and play Grid Wars with the game music turned off but the sound effects left on. The sound fx from the game and the song are in the same key and match together perfectly, whether you're blowing shit up or exploding yourself.

Jeez, that game was awesome! It kind of reminded me of the feel of Cave Story. Weird anal sex ending though
― big darn deal (Z S), Saturday, 5 December 2009 19:39 (fourteen years ago) link
That game was pretty damn cool, but I burned out around the time the 12 block grids of almost identical stages starting cropping up. Nice to see they added a little control graphic at the start, and they actually put a level countdown (31 levels from the end).
― Nhex, Saturday, 5 December 2009 20:09 (fourteen years ago) link
Level Up was fun. (i'm glad Z S wasn't being literal about the ending, there's at least one popular newgrounds game that ends with a graphic sex scene.)
― abanana, Sunday, 6 December 2009 09:42 (fourteen years ago) link
levelup WAS fun and i kinda think ZS was being literal about that ending; what a lousy reaming I got for my time.

This is interesting, but I'm not finished yet and I suspect there's not much actual gameplay in it. Worth a look tho.

― Mordy, Tuesday, 22 December 2009 11:33 (fourteen years ago) link
I dunno, I finished it now. It was a cute enough diversion but the mechanics of walking sloooooowly left to right outweighed the end a bit, for me. I like my art statement games to have a bit more game in them.

― Nhex, Tuesday, 26 January 2010 17:49 (fourteen years ago) link
Canabalt was fun for a couple runs but the rando factor becomes quickly obnoxious - every time you die, it's to a beginner's trap. Basically a whole game of the classic platformer annoyance "in real life, i would KNOW there was an enemy/pit/wall just off the screen!" But as with, say, Dino Run (or Sonic the Hedgehog for that matter), I *love* the sense of constant forward momentum.
― Doctor Casino, Tuesday, 26 January 2010 18:29 (fourteen years ago) link
Level Up! was kinda cool though (the one caek links as "fun little platform RPG"). Ending was BS but the basic gimmick is cool - could def see it being sustained over a larger game, the Majora's Mask of platform RPGs. At this length you kind of max out way too fast and there's not much to do with your mad skillz but I could sort of imagine a Metroidvania-scale game like this being really cool. Plus I like the general look-and-feel of it.

real-time (but super-slow) 4x space empire game, super simple and browser-based but incredibly intriguing. Would love to get an ILXor game going.

Basically plays out like the board game Diplomacy, sort of.
