sharpnova's game Reviews on Newgrounds

[Caves Online]

i played through a dozen times and was never able to climb up a ladder.

with a bug like that i can't really justify spending any more time on this.

also i couldn't find a key for attacking the skeletons.

also, upgrades only applying to random powerups and not getting upgrade base statisitcs... really sucks and feels like shitty progression.

see that rating? now know that i'll be rating this submission with that same score every day. as well as a bunch of friends, all of whom have even more voting power than me.

YailenkoGames responds:

Hey, this must be a hard work to go through all games you don't like every day and downvote them. :) I admire your consistency. Thanks for checking out my game)

[The Wizard]

what is the point of freezing enemies..?

yes they graphically move slower. but they still move the same amount of squares each turn..

and they're only frozen on the turn immediately after the spell. so i can do:

cast damage, then take damage
or
cast freeze, cast damage, then take damage

same result.

a pleasure to blam

HypnoticOwl responds:

Freezing is useful for enemies that can move more than one tile per turn. Freeze them while they are still further away from you, or around corners, and you'll have time to wail on them while they're trying to come close enough to harm you.

[Nova the Astronaut]

thought it was great.

JackAstral responds:

Thank you!

[Lone Wolf Ninja]

i don't like tutorials. i think the need to bombard the player with a bunch of text in order to understand how to play is bad game design.

if you can't express yourself through gameplay or at least with a simple flash of a key, then you are doing it wrong.

also, naturally, i hate the way the ninja moves. having to worry about him moving two spaces instead of one is absurd.

swishcheese responds:

It is bad design. I was lazyy and just thro up text for the tutorial, You can change controls by hitting the ninja control button on the top left. And tap controls when in tight areas or trying to move one space. if you move two spaces when you want to go one, you are holding the key down for to long.

[What Happened to Dad?]

So there is literally no content in this but a btc address?

ItsTheAshtray responds:

No.

[Ymotana]

you established a setting and atmosphere that could really have gone somewhere.

then you waved a dick in my face.

Guy-Unger responds:

ill make a game that's more meaningful or whatever sometime :P

[Cycle; Fourth Moon]

why doesn't the sky rotate with the world? do you not know how.... angles work?

game starts. i move a little over to the right.

i hit space bar and it opens up the letter box.

game over.

lol. how did you not see a bug like that in playtesting?

absolutely unbelievable. 0/5 across the board.

JackAstral responds:

What do you mean? Just click the (>) button to close it.

[Red Rapture]

this game doesn't load. just a black screen.

i'm using chrome. chrome isn't something you "update" it updates itself.

i'll hold off on submitting the actual rating for the submission until maybe you fix this or at least respond to this review civilly, constructively, and helpfully.

Sushin00 responds:

Hm, sorry but I can only suggest that you try a different browser, though your browser may not be allowing java or another plugin to access the game, which can be preventing it from loading.

[Wippo Wop]

d^n (x^n) / dx^n = n!

Guy-Unger responds:
