A lot of work went into this, but unfortunately it just appears to be nothing but links to the user's deviantArt.
Every time I picked the second stick fighter it sent me to a Youtube link.

I got Deviant Art links in new windows, so yeah, removed. Submissions must not open new windows or redirect at all.

I tend to agree but this kind of 'shovelware' is reasonably acceptable since the author did seemingly put a fair amount of work into it. It certainly is not what you would call 'standard shovelware'. As harsh as I am with my voting, I personally think this deserves to pass judgement. It's at least worth a 2 in my book.

Agreed. It's the kind of shovelware that irks us to no end, because it's not a cookie cutter game, but it's entertainment for the kind of user who hasn't seen 'real' games yet and thus, is impressed enough to rate highly, or by kids of the age that we really don't want them having accounts yet anyway.

I don't remember if I passed or "round scored" it. :\ I will not cry if it gets blammed. Of course, if it passes, the author will be encouraged to make and submit more, and we'll have to review him again someday. :\

BTW, that's also what's been going on with games2jolly and why it's taken so long to get them handled. I've been given approval to "address" them, but have been so busy with health/employment/financial/computer problems that I haven't been able to tackle that yet. It's on my list of things to do, tho. @jonthomson

Speak of the devil

And speaking of cookie cut games, take a look at that wall of submissions he/she has! Must be raking in NG dollars by now. It feels like they're milking the site -- always with some rehashed escape shit.

192MB is a suspiciously large file size for a silly little cycling game.

Can't seem to get this one to work past WASD controls. Spacebar attack doesn't seem to work. Looks like every other 2D minecraft-like clone I've ever seen, but shittier.

Not a movie, just an admittedly cool moving portrait with some tinny guitar.

Saw this one about a month ago. Presumably blammed.

Whew, on a roll today. Sorry about the 3 in a row here. Trying my damnedest not to flood the thread, but there just is a lot of suspicious flash in the portal today.

This one isn't what it claims to be at the moment. Says it's a "Sleep Slacking" game, when it looks like an improperly sized candy making game for children. Can see white bars at the top and bottom, which makes it suspect. The name and description are odd, too.

Does anyone know what's up with this trend of soundless two player games lately? I've seen everything from silent platformers to buggy flaming soccer today.

The most suspicious thing about this submission is the description. A mod should check into this. @Exedor

Got rid of it, agree with what has been said. The whole account looks like a shovelware submitter that hasn't been active for some time to me , so it's possible that the rest of their submissions will get unpublished too.

LOL's. Flobzoo have been on my list for quite some time. I wasn't actually aware they were still submitting. They must be posting shit when I'm inactive in the Portal or I'd be all over them.

Yeah, I've been seeing the shit for a while too. Glad to see some action being taken @Exedor

Revise my earlier statement. It may not have been the EXACT same game, but this guy has been making a series of really, really similar, low quality games based on two circular characters. There's another one in the portal now. Seems to be a series.

Here's one with an inappropriate porn thumbnail below.

This will probably get blammed, but this isn't even a game and the author says in the author's comments that even he/she can't get anything to work.

Not sure. Is annoying though. The breakout game was actually entertaining, but most of the other stuff I've seen has been completely non-functional, broken, or just shitty.
