"More please!"

submission: goldilocks

date: December 6, 2000

This is good stuff. Very dark, and brutal violence. I love it! I hope to see future submissions of this caliber from this artist!

Score: 8

"Confusing at first, but I figured it out."

submission: Absalom RPG (Flash 5)

date: November 13, 2000

When I first started, I was confused on how to play, and I didn't understand the cards. Once I played some more I quickly figured out what the cards did, and it's a pretty interesting battle system. I beat the game, and I'm excited to see Part 2. Well done Kingsman!

Score: 9

"No, I don't think that's enough!"

submission: Peanut 2

date: October 20, 2000

I think the first peanut made me laugh more, but the second one is hilarious as well! I would like to see more series of Peanut, but I think it would be better if it was a little longer. I want to see the guy really beat the piss out of himself. Maybe he could slam his head in his desk drawer a few times, after bashing it on everything else in the room.

Score: 10

"The most challenging Trapped version yet!"

submission: Trapped 3

date: October 17, 2000

I really enjoyed Trapped 3. Matt continues to improve with each new version. While some may think the graphics are basic, I think they are very clean and get the job done very nicely. I did not experience any major glitches. I had a little trouble picking up the bomb, but I got it. I can't wait to play Trapped 4. Good job Matt! Don't let the negative reviewers get to you, they just aren't smart enough to beat your game.

Score: 10

"A Portal Classic!"

submission: Sloth TV

date: October 17, 2000

Some people may not find the humor in this, but I think it's one of the funniest Portal entries I have seen! Sloth rules! If you think this is funny, you have to check out Sloth TV 2 by the same author!

Score: 10

"Short, but damn funny!"

submission: Why???

date: October 11, 2000

I think this maybe the funniest thing I've ever seen on The Portal. I don't remember laughing at a Portal entry so much before. It's funny even after watching it a dozen times. It's just plain silly.

Score: 8

"Where can I get that magic window?"

submission: One 1

date: October 11, 2000

I thought the art work was very nice, and the movie flowed along very nicely. The audio was a little low, had to crank up my speakers, but it was nice. I would like to see more work from Brian James. It looks good so far. However, am I the only one who noticed the magic window that casts moonlight and daylight from an interior wall? The other side of the window should be a view of his mom cooking breakfast. :)

Score: 9

"Fun and challenging"

submission: Quest - Level 1

date: October 10, 2000

Matt Ruggia delievers yet another challenging game. I hope to see a lot more games like this in the future from Matt. His games hold my interest, and are very interactive.

Score: 9

"Good challenge, played until I beat it."

submission: Trapped 2

date: September 26, 2000

This game was a lot of fun. I played until I beat it. The graphics had a nice clean look. The controls worked well. I am looking forward to seeing future versions of the game.

Score: 6

"Gotta love this twisted stuff!"

submission: log boy #2

date: September 12, 2000

Now this is the kinda twisted shit I would like to see more of! I see a sequel for this. The baby should keep trying to eat as it gets thinner, and thinner, and weaker, until it dies.
