Graphics were nice, but considering the main 'selling point' of this was supposedly the humour, it really wasn't funny. At all.

"Since I didn't hack the game, I must be 1337"
Great game, this kept me entertained for two or three hours. Quick bug while it's still in my mind: the first time you get through the DarkFaire tournament, the second time you fight the elf - if you don't kill him in one shot, 'SIRATH UNDEFINED' comes up, and nothing happens (no options, you just stand there looking at each other). Not a problem, just reloaded the save file, went through it a couple of times with the new weapon (Fengus in one shot is satisfaction embodied, btw) to boost my level up to 13, and Cold Blooded him.
Found two of the secret weapons, not sure about the second one involving the ring, since I'd already given it away by the time I read that review response. I'll probably play it through again to find out, at some stage.
Anyway, scores:
GFX: Not played WoW, but a big fan of Warcraft. Good job on ripping the characters from the game and incorporating them into Flash. Animations looked great.
Game style: very well presented and coded, I can appreciate the amount of work that's gone into this.
Sound: SFX were nice, wasn't so keen on the music. Probably the weakest part of the game.
Violence: Could have used blood, I suppose, but the fact that you chose not to didn't detract from the game.
Interactivity: Duh
Humour: lol@merlocs and their voices
Overall: One of the best games I've seen on NG for a looooong time. Also kudos for getting linked from the WoW Front Page, and for getting sponsored by NG. I look forward to seeing your next piece of work - if it's anything like this, it'll be a real treat.

That bug was supposed to be fixed, give it a while to upload. Thanks for the comments! :D

Congrats on the Daily Feature/Front Page, well deserved. Great game, really challenging both physically (as in co-ordination) and mentally. Some sweet coding (no surprise there), and some really nice simple graphics, effects and transitions.
Came across one glitch though, not sure what caused it. Level 18, made it to the end - but for some reason (I wasn't touching anything), I lost a life and had to restart.
Wonder if this would be easier to play with the graphics tablet.....
Anyway, excellent job, nice to see one of NG's best scripters get some thing on the portal, and awards as a result.

Thanks for the review, we definately appreciate it. Coming from an actionscripter of your level, i appreciate your comments.
And I loved Runaway Kart too, good to see you're getting recognition. You deserve it.

Time to catch up, I really need to be getting on with my own games =)
Graphics were very sweet, coding was top-notch, game was great. My favourite DD submission for sure. It's obvious that a lot of effort went into this, and it's just really nicely presented and polished. I'm disappointed that it didn't make the dailies, I think it deserved to.
Now I'm not sure about the whole mongoose thing, and it's a bit annoying when my 'friends' keep shooting me, lol. 72156 current best, I'll be back to play this again
Good job, and thanks

thanks for the compliments. i thought DF's art was perfect for this game, and the coding was a great learning experience for me. i hoped to make the dailies, or even frontpage, but no such luck.
as for your friends: i was trying to capture the TRUE essence of negONE...
glad you liked it.

"WTF!? You will never become a mod."
OH SNAP
Very basic, could have used some vector graphics, but not bad for something thrown together in a couple of hours.
I'm sick of hearing that damn song now, though =)
