"great"

submission: Super Mario 63

I kinda get the same kick from this game that I had when I played the SNES and N64 mario games. Brilliant. Nothing more to add than that.

Only thing that disturbed the gaming experience was some short bits of loud white noise which appeared along with random sound effects. You probably know that already, if you don't, I'm running the game on Safari 3.1.2

"Great"

submission: Epic Battle Fantasy

date: May 1, 2009

That was fun, I'm very impressed by the characters and villains- very very well made. Much better than most games I've seen on the internet. The difficulty levels are on the spot, easy is challenging, but most people will probably get through it on their first try, normal and hard requires more strategy, and though I haven't played the Epic difficulty I guess the player will need a thorough walkthrough or something, which is just how a very hard/epic/impossible setting should be.

My only problem with personally it is that it's pretty slow, and with the continuous stream of enemies, the gameplay becomes repetitive and boring after a while.

anyway cool

"Finally!"

submission: The CTSG Collab!

Way to go folks. As promised, you flashy people have as much butt-liquid as you'd like from me!

Seriously, I never thought you'd actually finish that. Well done.

"wow, love this"

submission: Rudy P. - Sucker Punch

date: October 2, 2009

Full of energy and punch right from the bat, the piece has a very nice and clear hi-fi sound that creates instant high expectations. The bass is relatively mellow, but that only creates more tension during the more mellow parts (with the filtered drums and all). The various tracks are nice and fat when that is required, but they never take too much space in the mix. The drums sound great (though there's a bit of an unpleasant hi-mid boost on the snare) Love the drum programming too, very nice fills. Plus, you elegantly and seemingly effortlessly transition from the typical breakbeat to those nice half-time, almost dubstep-like beats at 2:33, and back again.

The mix isn't really lacking in the bass area, however I think the treble is a bit extreme, I can't listen to this loudly because the treble is almost painful. That's the only catch really, it's a pretty sick tune overall.

Score: 8

"nice backing"

submission: The_Jazz_Lab [Box-Killa]

date: September 5, 2009

The background is very nice, lovely chords and, as far as I know, great sounds, but it's overshadowed by the rather cheap sounding lead synth. Put a lowpass filter on it or something, it think this piece would sound much better (and more flash friendly!) if the lead synth wasn't as prominent. Not much more to say about this loop, please take my suggestion into consideration though.

Score: 7

"don't know about this one, sorry man"

submission: Dark_Awakeining [Box-Killa]

Sounds like it has been compressed by a ridiculous amount... it's like you entered the loudness war with nukes. If you look at it in a waveform editor the track generally looks like a solid block. Careful with that compression, it severely damages the sound quality.

A note about the composition- it's all straight 16th/8th/4th notes: the piano plays a little awkward straight 4th note sequence in the beginning, then a melody of 8th notes. The drums also have this robotic preciseness, it all ends up sounding quite lifeless. You may want to experiment a bit with the phrasing (i.e placement of notes and pauses in the piece), to make the piece sound more expressive, lively and interesting.

I'm not so sure man, it's a decent piece of music, but I believe the things mentioned above are quite important, and thus didn't find myself enjoying it much.
