Cyberdevil's game Reviews on Newgrounds

Woo, all-time highscore with more than a thousand to spare! :) First attempt didn't go so well, second went MUCH better. Overall it's a fun and addicting game, though after getting one record it feels like that's all one arm can take, gets more tiresome than you'd think trying to quickly flick all squares in the right direction. Anyway, it's simple, fun and plenty rewarding! Nice game.

A simple, fun and stylistically minimal puzzle game! Nice work.

Another great LD game! The graphics aren't as incredibly illuminative as I was hoping, would be cool with some more light effects, but they do look good, simple; efficient. The gameplay is where it excels, even though it takes a while before balls settle down and allow you to link many of them together. Power-ups are a lot of help, and a lot of fun, a much more rewarding process of clearing up the field. Simple; fun; addicting!

LD really brings forth some of the most unique game concepts ever! Love the pixel graphics, the entertaining details like those Mickey Mouse ears and how the one guy's a vulture. Each push of the red button brings forth a new victim too, all potentially sentenced to Death in different ways. It's a simple yet complex SIM of tyrannical rule, with mostly intuitive gameplay but also a bit mysterious in what it's you're actually supposed to achieve, or how to best do so, but I guess part of the thrill is figuring that out yourself. Nice game!

78 deaths, 2 coins, 8 diamonds and 103 kills later... I give up! The idea's definitely new and original, and I like the minimal crisp pixel graphics, but it gets a bit monotone after a while... guess it is a bit like life in that regard. :) Though, I can't recall the normal struggle ever claiming this many casualties! Nice idea - slightly repetitive gameplay, and even more so when you don't get any hints of what's coming or how much further you have to go to get where you're going. At least in life you know how much money you need, how many diamonds you need to bribe or how much competition you need to kill to reach the goal. ;) The sacrifices remain a mystery though.

I never do get tired of these TD games! Smooth controls, great graphics, and even a story to back up the campaign. Resolution's large enough to fit those visuals too. And the soundtrack, can't forget that! Really nice work!

How about a highscore table? I love the idea itself, but reaching that final score (519 btw) doesn't seem as rewarding as it could be without a way to eternalize the score. Graphics are simple but unique, and the game idea itself the most original part of it. Amazing how many new ideas seem to pop up with each Ludum Dare! Nice work.
