sharpnova's game Reviews on Newgrounds

[Abducted]

decent but the star puzzle was really annoying. it was super obvious what to do but next to impossible to determine how high up the stars were relative to each other. because it wasn't really based on their appearance. you just "decided" to go with 21341.

i had to brute force the first, 3rd, and 4th sliders, holding the 2nd and 5th constant at 1 and hoping i was on the right track.

basically all i had was that the first slider was >1 and <= the 3rd slider and the 3rd slider was <= the 4th slider.

this leaves 222, 223, 224, 225, 233, 234, 235, 244, 245, 255, 333, 334, 335, 344, 345, 355, 444, 445, 455, 555

some of these could be initially ruled out with some guess work and assumptions and i got it on my 3rd try but overall it was a puzzle that requires brute forcing.

1442 second try. first try to learn that hitting the lane markers kills you for some reason

try 2 just moved my pixel into the lower right of the road and followed the right edge of the road.

incredibly easy. i don't know if you thought about that particular playstyle.. but it makes the game trivial.

trust me i could have gone way further than 1442 but the song was repeating so i was done.

5/5 because i love all your games. a lot.

heyo :D

here is no need to rate it better bc of previous stuff :D
thanks tho :)

If you want a harder challenge, try the second game, "house" ;)

[Match 3 3xb]

uhm. why do you have a banner ad at the start with a play button?

Artur-Felipe responds:

It was an artificial intelligence bug. But why did you give zero star? for such a simple thing.
Thank you

oh man. this game understayed its welcome bigtime. i wanted more.

[LootBox: Colectionism]

the game doesn't even give you feedback when you get all the figurines. that's the least you could have done.

[Sneaky Rooftop Escape]

nice iteration on your formula. you are basically my goto for killing an hour, lately.

the movement arrows need to pop against the background a little better.

hope you make more in this style. it's kind of like agent-a

[Scrap Arms Demo [OLD 2019]]

"this is a demo in which the content serves as a prologue for the final game"

"this demo is a prologue for the final game"

see the difference there?

re re: I'm still playing the game. I only set a placeholder score of 3 stars until I finish playing and then I'll give more detailed feedback. I'm fairly certain the score will be higher.

BigBossErndog responds:

Thanks, I'll change that soon. Umm, is that all? Or would you like to add more to the review? I'd really like feedback on the game itself...

[Lost Escape Castle]

this is your worst game. (that i've played at least and i've played a lot of them)

the lockbox into which you enter 'GILROY' is literally impossible. i had to watch your walkthrough to figure out how to continue and there is suddenly a clickable region there leading to that lockbox..? but there is nothing visually there.

[Medieval Village Escape]

i got all the way to the point where i gave the old man the ale and he told me the ground was soft. so i clicked all around him (and even on him) with the shovel and nothing would work.
