tungazzio's game Reviews on Newgrounds

[Zombie Employee]

Average Platformer

It didn't have too much going for it, but it didn't have too much going against it. I played through and came up with the following particular points:

*jumps feel too sharp in reaching and leaving their peak; play around with the acceleration
*turning around feels delayed sometimes while running; this may be to do with the checking of button presses, or to do with horizontal acceleration and deceleration at the start/end of movement, but it feels a bit off
*after clearing a level, don't delay on moving to the next. If the issue is about whether or not a player is falling towards the spikes as they finish, just skip the delay if the player has 0 vertical velocity
*fix the resolution; the play area is wider than the frame
*minor bug: on level 11 I could move into the blocks at the top after falling through the bottom (ie a problem with collision detection)
*the width of spike hitboxes feels a little large

Gornova81 responds:

tnx tungazzio for your testing :D
but first question: did you enjoy with it?

>*jumps feel too sharp in reaching and leaving their peak; play around with the acceleration

i didn't notice that, can you explain better?

>*turning around feels delayed sometimes while running; this may be to do with the checking of button presses, or to do with horizontal acceleration >and deceleration at the start/end of movement, but it feels a bit off

i don't understand that, sorry :(

>*after clearing a level, don't delay on moving to the next. If the issue is about whether or not a player is falling towards the spikes as they >finish, just skip the delay if the player has 0 vertical velocity

other people say that :D i don't think that is a major problem, but a sort of "learning process" of player: death of our little zombie employee is always near, so when you win you can't relax :D

>*fix the resolution; the play area is wider than the frame

fixed, thanks!

>*minor bug: on level 11 I could move into the blocks at the top after falling through the bottom (ie a problem with collision detection)

i'll look forward this, thanks!

>*the width of spike hitboxes feels a little large

do you mean width of the entire sprite of spikes, or single spike?

[MonsteroCity]

Meh

Not great for control accuracy, and I was bored after the first level, even trying each monster.

ickmiester responds:

Well thats too bad. you never got to see the crumbling Mao statues, or watch the angry mob be chased off by tanks. You never even got to play around with low gravity on the moon.

[Home Sweet Halogen]

I don't get it

but I like it!

cashuu responds:

i dont get alot of stuff ether.

[Plops Tournament DX]

Fun game!

I really like the idea and the music. Good work!
The only issue is aiming - maybe having a center to the plop and it turns when you move the cursor within the plop would work.
Anyway, this might just be front page worthy!

ReduxGames responds:

THANKS, all comments are taken into account :)

[Ultimate Potato]

Great game!

But NO ENDING! Why?

And the final boss is -way- too easy with a few shots of the lasergun.

FrostedMuffins responds:

There's an ending........
it just really sucks. Sorry about that. Glad you liked the rest of it.

[Blow Boat]

Great idea

It's way too hard, though, and dying after one hit is a bit harsh. I would suggest a life bar, slightly longer jumps (especially at higher speeds, but add in something so you can't just keep jumping all the time) and a training level. Original, though!

Edvin responds:

Well, the better your mic is, the easiest the game is! Thanks for the review!

[Cells II]

Pretty good

Nice idea, refreshing, but the controls can be erratic and annoying, even without the annoying protein.

Glaiel-Gamer responds:

try the other 2 modes.

[Ace Racer]

It was a pretty fun experience.

Nothing new, but not bad, and kinda refreshing. It has a nice feel to it.

You should add a temporary invulnerability after death, so players do not repeatedly die, and you should also give a longer warning about the dolphins before they jump. Other than that, though, seemed pretty good.

FrostedMuffins responds:

Thanks for the good review. I'll fix it up as soon as I get home from school.

[SpongeBob SquarePants V2]

Is it really a game?

Crabburgers? By the way, Sandy is SpongeBob's girlfriend? The whole of Bikini bottom is on one street? IT'S GONNA BE A TRILOGY? Somebody save me...

GROMHELLGROUND responds:

yeah please save that dude, please? someone?
