This is one of the best games on ROBLOX. Since last year it has mostly been on the first 5 pages. It had it's first downfall when jaredvaldez4 'copied' the game. Recently, it has been on the first or second page. Basically, this game has two teams, Red and Blue. It has several objectives which are: CTF, Deathmatch, Elimination, Team Swap, Base Defence and Capture Points.

Scripting: 9/10
Very clever! There is never any glitches.

Tools: 10/10
Paintball guns look and work brilliantly.

Development: By the looks of things and his updates, it looks like he puts time and effort into this!

Problems: 10/10
Simple. No reason to think.

Difficulty: N/A
It all depends on how good your opponents are.

Front Cover: Great
Shows you the basic idea of the game.

Building: 8/10
Maps work. Some quite detailed.

Fun Filling: A lot
Very fun. A while ago I spent an hour on it. Just playing and playing and playing.

Thought: 9/10
Not the first FPS but one of the first successful Paintball games.

Overall: 9.333/10

IDEAS
  • None. It's good enough

Place Review #1: Choices


CHOICES, BY GOLLYGREG

Stage of testing: Released

Now, when I first played this I loved the GUI it started with. Yes. Anyone with a mind could make that but this GUI made me laugh. During the game you have your view locked. That means you cannot move the screen around. During the game you play a 2D to 3D view and have the chance to experience climbing and running movement. In the description it said it would be a 'Challenge' and yes, as a beginner I struggled but as it continued I got the gist and moved through quite easily.

Scripting: 7/10
Classic and new scripts to ROBLOX. Made by the creator unlike others...

Tools: N/A
There is no tools...

Development: Looks like it could have been planned a little. At least it wasn't made by a couple of clicks.

Problems: 9/10
Very good. No bugs and there is a path out of everything.

Difficulty: Medium
Shouldn't be too hard as long as you aren't lost...

Front Cover: Quite a nice snapshot. Quite attractive.

Building: 6/10
Yes, this might have took a while but it is quite simple. Make some scripts and GUI's, then just add some bricks.

Fun Filling: Quite
I played for about 30mins and didn't complete it. I had to quite but I really enjoyed it! If I didn't have to get off I would continue playing. It is quite a puzzling game. I would recommend it quite a lot. My friends were playing and they enjoyed it too!

Thought: 10/10
Very clever! Almost like bringing Super Mario to life! It is a new way to bring adventure games to ROBLOX.

Overall: 6/10
Obviously not the best game but still quite good and Unique.
