When I first red "There She Is!! step3" I couldn't belief it.
I mean it has been three years since the last part off this serie and I gave up all hope for part 3 years ago...
Now that you have finally finished and submited it I musst say it is as great as the first two parts and i really enjoyed watching it.
The graphics were just as in the first two parts.Well there is some better drawn stuff on NG but still you animation and drawing skills are magnificent.
In my opinion you could have added some more colour to your flash,but I think you musst decide this by yourself,because it's your style of drawing...
The music used in this flash isn't the kind of music I like,but it is fitting to the flash and you made a good choice with it so you get all points here as well.
The only critical point I have in your flash is the whole happening.Of course you've done your best to show the story and i got it,but at some points I had to ask myself what was really happening because it was unclear at some points.
Anyway,as I said before your flash was overall great and it can compare to the best flashs on NG.
So part 3 will replace part 2 in my favorite list,and I hope I don't have to wait another three years of time for a fourth part...
Overall: 9/10 5/5

I was a big fan of "The Last Stand 1" and I loved that game.
Part 2 gave a lot of new things to the game,like the new weapons,the new search system,the wandering from city to city,the possibility to set up traps and to quipt the survivors with weapons of your choice,which were overall all good improvements.
The graphics were nearly the same as in part one.you changed the main character and made him really look older which I thing was a great idea.
The Sound in this flash were also fitting to the game even though the first maschine guns sounds like tipping one a typewriter,but I think for normal flash this isnt't a bad point.
As I said before I liked the improvements you made for this flash but there were some things you could've improved.
First of all the whole ending was dissapointing...
I thought there would be one big last standing against a horde of zombies,but there was just this "Save at last".You could just run through the whole map and get to Union City because you don't need all the weapons or the survivors,and this is in my opinion a bad point about this game.
I also think that this game was much too easy,I thought the second part would be at last as challenging as the first but it wasn't.
So Overall the second part is better then the first,but I think there is still room to improve the flash.
9/10 5/5

Mmh...I played "SC Guitar Maniac Dx 2" and I really liked it alot...The songs were short and I liked most of them...It was challenging getting the perfect stars and I was motivated to get all the guitars...
When I saw a third part I thought it would be the same but better...Well I got disappointed after the first 2 songs...
First of all the gameplay you used was nearly exactly the same as in Guitar Maniac 2...The only new thing,the 4 buttons for holding was in my opinion a bad idea...Here is the first thing you could improve at this point:Let the player choose his own controlls and don't give him 2 (in my opinion) bad choices...
The songs in this part really annoyed me...First of all I didn't like most of them,second they were much to long,espacially if you want to get a perfect...This and the bad controll made this game hard and I got depressed pretty fast...
Of course you made a good game again,but the difficult was too hard.
If I play something like this I do it for a short time and I don't want to train more then one hour to get into it...I could colect some perfects,gold and silvers in the first songs,but I think the later sonds are for people who have to much free time...
Don't get me wrong...The idea behind this game is great and your flash and the idea with the different guitars is great,but I think this is worser then the second part.
So overall there were 2 things you improved:You made more guitars and you can hear it if you hit the wrong note,but I can't give you a better rating for your game...

It was a cool game and it mad fun the first two times I played it but it got in my opinion it got insanly hard at level 28.
There were three level 28 coming and I had to hold my mouse on only one of them until the other two reached my level 60 and took 100 health and a protection from it in no time.At that time I think the only way to win is the deity whistle and after my second try I didn't want to play through the hole game again,only hoping for my luke...
Graphics:Most of the graphics in this game were taken from newgrounds.Of course you changed some models a bit but most of them were just copied so I can't give you all points here.
Sound:You used fiting music for your flash it didn't annoy me and you get all points here.
Miscellaneous:You lose one point as well because of the (I think) to high difficult towards the end.If I'm that much mistaking and it is all very easy it's my mistake but all I can say is that it was to hard for me...
Overall I liked the game and it was funny to play the different modes.
7/10 4/5

Thing is, this is a strictly Newgrounds-themed game, so I should lose points for using any non-NG graphics because they don't match the theme. I can't win.
Also, trying to get a balanced difficulty that provides a challenge throughout but isn't frustratingly hard is in itself frustratingly hard.

This gives the whole rock,scissor paper game a new touch.
I really like the idea of this game but there are some points in this game you could have made better.
First of all the graphics and the animations in this were not that great.I think you could've made a winning animation for any sign (Like an explosion for the dynamite) or somethink like this because the flash was pretty boring after a while.
You could've also made an instruction telling which sign beats another,because I never played with 25 signs and don't know the rules.
The music was good at the beginning but it annoyed me after a short while playing,so you lose one point here two.
Overall I really enjoyed this game for a short while but because of the negative points I can only give you a rating of 6/10.
I voted a 4 (Close to a 3) because as I said before I liked the game and the new signs.

I think everyone who is new on Newgrounds should watch through this one time.
You showed nearly all the aspects on newgrounds in a short summary,and I think you made it understandable.
After all I musst say that I think that this flash is a bit overrated.
I mean you just made a menu and the most pictures were just taken from Newgrounds.
Don't understand me wrong,I think this Flash is a great idea and I think it is helpfull as well,but I can't rate this Flash that high because I don't think it was as much work as some other games on Newgrounds.
Overall: 6/10 4/5
Author's Response:
well, I did use all the images of rankings and awards because it was necessary for informational purposes. But you must not underestimate the time taken and the effort to put this together. The staff page images were edited, all the levels had to be sorted, I illustrated most of the pages and i'm assuming you didn't click on the credits as well. Let's not forget tomamoto's voice acting which added that extra something to the flash.
All i'm saying is that there is more to it then it seems at first glance.

It was really funny playing this game.
Graphics:Nearly all the graphics in this game were taken from World of Warcraft,but I think it is hard to work with them so you get all points in graphics.
Sound:A nice music in the background,matching to the game.You get all points here too.
Gameplay:I personally love round-based RPGs,and how you did it in this Flash was great.
Miscellaneous:Here is the niggest point to criticize.The ending was much to abrupt and I really disliked it.I know it costs a lot of time programming something like this but I can't give you all the points for such an ending...
Overall you made a great game and even if it is already 2 years old and I don't think it will ever happen I hope for a part 2.
8/10 5/5

You made a nice remix of the Bowser battle in Super Mario World and in some points it was even better then the orginal one.
The Mario sprite is moving good and it can do all things as in smw like the duck-jump and the spin-jump on the flames.Bowser had the same collison as in smw,so for the programming you get all points.
The graphics were sprites of a snes game and they are overall easy to use,so I can't give you all points in graphic.
The music was good at the beginning but the loop annoyed me after a while.The sounds were taken from smw as well and they were fitting in the game well.I missed the sound of the flames but that's not a big point for me.
You showed that you can programm a jump 'n ' run like smw good but it was a bit too short.You know it was just the Bowser Fight which isn't that challenging or long at all.I think you could make a really good mario or any jump 'n' run game in flash and I hope you will keep on working on you're skills.
Overall I gave you a 7/10 and a 4/5 and I hope you'll make a good game like this again but only a bit longer.

It is what it is. I've got longer spriteless games planned for the future.

I remember the last flash you made.
I can see you improved on this flash a bit,but overall there are things you've got to improve to make a really good flash.
Here are some things which can be easy to make better for you:
-If you let your characters talk,let the speech stand there a bit longer.
-Try to make the stick figures a bit "fatter".I mean you can draw the lines a bit fatter then one pixel,I think it would look better.
-Make your movie overall a bit slower.I know making a movie faster gives some action to it,but you made it so fast,that noone will understand what goes on.
-Try to add a more clear story to your flash.
-Don't go over the top with your attacks.Some cool small attacks,with better animation look better than these totally fat ultra-attacks.
I think you try to make a good flashmovie but you need to work on your skills.
I hope you will get better on your next movie,overall I gave you a 4/10 and a 3/5 (Because you improved and didn't used that many rainbow figures ;)).
Author's Response:
I will.. im working on number 3 as it was rushed...
And the reason i kinda draw them one pixel like is because its easier to animate..
Also since when does silozen ever use weak attacks? ah well maybe ill put em in the next one..

I think you used the song "Rock around the clock" in the special episode of Adolf Hitler in around the world in 80 days in which he visits strawberryclock and gets his quest too.
I like this song even if it is very old.
Well your drawing of Hitler was funny.Maybe you could've made the "eyebrows" a bit bigger but after all I liked it.
Overall I gave you a 8/10 and a 4/5 and I can't wait to see the next episodes.
