sharpnova's game Reviews on Newgrounds

[Tiny Defender]

absolutely wretched wretched sound design. the sounds are jarring and contrast too sharply with each other. you start a level and it feels like your speakers are screaming a high pitched whine.

overall the game... was nothing special.

the sound design made it outright bad.

[Escape #7: The Office]

6:01 first try. only hiccup for me was knowing the format to enter dates in. i never like free form date entry in puzzles. too many formats.

[Mafia Stories 2]

you didn't mention to hit F to fight. shouldn't have to read your newgrounds comments below the flash to learn how to play the game.

for this and other things you fail.

I also mentioned it in the loading screen... I thought it should be enough...
FOR ALL WHO READ THIS PRESS "F" TO FIGHT OR SHOOT!!!

[Storm Saws]

i looked up the definition of gauche

[The Everloom]

The end..?

I sincerely hope not.

[N-Dimensions]

i wish there were persistent upgrades of some kind.

[The Cube]

the way you slide is unbearably annoying.

[Place.]

very nice. though it would have benefited from some light ambient noise/music, the whole "this whole life ends in an instant" vibe was well served by the realism of the noiselessness.

[You Have One Box]

uhm.. i dropped the box on the switch, the poorly drawn sprite walked through the exit door.. and nothing..

so i wen tot main menu to see if i could at least go to level 2 manually. nope?

so fix your buggy piece of shit

Rob1221 responds:

The box needs to go in the exit second. Did you do that?

[Hero in the Ocean]

the end-of-level fanfare and option popups (next level/etc.) are immersion breaking. it should just flow into the next level seamlessly.

didn't like having secrets in levels that you can't really find without pressing against random walls.

this game would have mega-benefited from some light story throughout the levels or every few levels.

there is trash then there are games like this that have enough to keep you interested but are lacking some key pieces (or possessing some key annoyances) that keep it from being great. this one is right there, imo.

oh, and finally it has some bug where your movement keys will get unresponsive. i died in the middle of a level because the down key stopped working. (obviously i hadn't lost focus in the flash window because the left and right keys still worked)
