sharpnova's game Reviews on Newgrounds

[Go Farm IV]

too slow.

terrible interface.

annoying game mechanics.

ear slaying music.

utterly irrelevant and poorly message sound effect.

-1 star for the adblocker BS. you act like we're blocking ads just to hurt indie developers. what about the disgustingly obtrusive ads on sites like youtube and ign?

4 overall because this is a great game as i always expect from nitrome

Nitrome responds:

Just because you argue that you are blocking ads for sites like Youtube and ign does not mean that you are not hurting indie developers?
The arival of App stores on mobile as a whole has led to an ongoing decline in people playing flash games which in turn is putting a squeese on the revenue a flash dev can make from their game. We have to get millions of people to play our games just to pay the bills of making it which is no easy task! On top of that it is generally accepted that you have more potential to make money in mobile now than you do in the flash space so flash developers faced with this dilema are increasingly jumping ship.
What I'm saying is avoid watching ads if you want, but then don't complain later when there are no longer any free games to play on the internet any more of any worth.

[Traumata]

i liked the graphical style.

i hated everything else.

[Bleed for Speed]

wow i wasn't aware NG supported html5 games. awesome

this game, in particular is ok. but i believe white blood cells attack infections/germs. not impale themselves on them.

minus 1 star for that messup on your part.

minus another for lack of depth to gameplay.

plus 3 for good graphics, sound, controls.

[Simple Love]

it was ok. the language was bad. guessing english isn't your first language?

and jumping while sprinting to the left didn't work. luckily you didn't need to be able to do that specifically to beat the game.

[Canabalt]

perfect flash game.

and yet still sad that this is the 2nd most advertised title on the ouya.

glad i didn't waste any $ on that thing.

[Central Alien Agency]

basically a carbon copy of the game where you're trying to grow a tree that turns on you at the end.

also, having to go around collecting money was pointless and annoying.

having the money despawn fairly quickly was pointless and annoying.

the saddest part is that in order to make your game distinct from th eone you copied, you had less features..

1 star for not being bug ridden
1 star for being polished

[A Bit of Fun]

i'm a great platformer and i could definitely beat this.

however, level 4 was so ridiculously stupid and difficult for an early level that i just blammed this and moved on :)
