sharpnova's game Reviews on Newgrounds

[endeavor]

as usual, the true NG classics have nothing to do with cringe pico/madness/etc. circlejerking.

this should be remastered for modern times. (remade really)

[Pound the Puss]

I went through all that just for her to reject it on the basis of tomatoes.

Is this really the message you're trying to send to young kids?

OrangePylon responds:

Tomatoes are dogshit, and it's time for society to wake up to that.

[Toon Escape: Amazon]

Took me a minute to realize to start the fire with the glass. Other than that it was super easy.

Short and fun

[Fractured 4]

This is a nice game. But it was submitted here years ago.

[Pulse Runner]

the lagginess and horrible handling really give this game a nice 2/5'ish feel to it.

Music didn't fit at all it was just weird.

My computer is solid too so it's not on my end.

[Gust]

The way the ball interacts with the cursor so spazzily really makes this unpleasant to play. It was a suggestion to people who liked Hook or klocki which were great. I'm not sure why this isn't really even remotely in the same class.

The graphics were bad. Curves looked very jagged and the art assets didn't mesh well at all. Music was weird and didn't fit.

[The Lair]

I don't like brawler style games. And I found the weapon swinging sluggish and frustrating.

That said, the visual aesthetic was excellent. I loved the flowing water around the moon's reflection and the flames that generate on the screen when you die.

Audio was sub-meh.

[SlushPuppies]

no sound. pixel art is too minimal. causes the game to be devoid of any character.

levels aren't interesting. mechanic isn't interesting... levels could at least be procedural

if not procedural then it makes no sense to start the game over from scratch when you die

SiredSpace responds:

No sound? That's strange, there should be sound [ although, it's very minimal ].
Thanks for the honest feedback! :)

[I Broke The Time]

How do you play this? I'm clicking "SELECT" on the Local Save option and nothing is happening. I tried it on Online Save and it was the same there.

Is it really that hard to notice bugs like these?

ragevb responds:

Thanks for the comment. I encountered that issue only once, and I wasn't sure if I fixed it or not. I'll try to address it in the next update. In the meantime you can try refreshing the page and everything should be fine.
Cheers

I have a good pc but the lag on this was very annoying. It mostly only occurs at the start/finish of levels and when you pick up powerups.

Still one of the best metroidvania flash games ever.

The-EXP responds:

Thanks :) Yeah this one is a bit laggy because I tried to do everything on a strict minute timer. I should have just let the lag slow things down instead of trying to be clever about it. Oh well, live and learn :) Thanks for playing :)
