Cyberdevil's game Reviews on Newgrounds

[Submachine: Ancient Adventure]

This was a pretty atmospheric puzzle. The sceneries are detailed, the music ambient, the puzzles at times simple, at times challenging, and I like how you just jump in without guide, free to explore on your own... though at times I do wish there was some kind of hinting system. Nice game!

[The Blind Swordsman]

lmao, saving in on graphic design huh. :D Nice one. The idea's not bad, and it looks like it is actually playable... though a bit pointlessly challenging with all that darkness. Since the cutscenes are already made, how about making an alternate graphical version for another day? Nice work.

how would you be blind if you see?

[MadBurger 2]

A different kind of tossing game! I like the idea, the upgrades and rewards, the abulity to navigate the burger rather than flying completely at random, good game!

[Super Smash Flash]

Woo, SSB In Flash form! This was pretty cool. The player selection was a bit confusing at first, but dragging the pointer to character of choice is actually a lot faster than browsing through them via buttons (though I feel some form of flashy transition thing between choices would've fit right in in a game like this). As for gameplay, there's a ton of variation, characters, levels, attacks... so much content! Looks a bit strange how the levels fade out into the canvas, were the edges that clear in the original? Attacks could be much more dybnamic; effectual, but it was fun, and for the time it was made it's certainly an awesome achievement. Nice work!

[Edgar's Dream]

This was a pretty awesome idea. Brings me back to the Haunted House games I played as a kid. The graphics are stylish, and the detail's the best part, how every painting or other piece of equipment comes to life when you click it. Plenty of variation and exploration to be done. Nice work!

[Hatcher Air Hockey]

A pretty addicting game! The first time that background popped up I was thinking there'd it was some kind of three-dimensional special... but turns out it was the oldskool type. I'm thinking a more consistent background would look better, something symmetrical for each field, but anyway, twas a fun play! Controls are smooth and simple.

It is definitely old school, made for a gamejam :) Thank you for checking it out !

This was a pretty fun game! Not sure I like the way the screen transitions only when you get to the edge of it (feels like it'd be easier if it moved along with the character), and it actually makes it a bit dizzying when you have to move around right at the edge of the two 'screen's and the screen keeps moving... but apart from that, it was a lotta fun, the controls remind me of Lode Runner a bit. Graphics are sharp in color sometimes but well-made, and the game itself is a lot of fun, plenty of variation, creative levels... nice work! Though I do wonder why the medals don't reach further than level 1? Keep up the good work!

rgpaddler responds:

thank you - yes I need to continue the medals,I ran out of time in trying to get it completed for the jam so I'm intending to finish it properly at some point with lots more levels.I will try getting the camera to follow the player continously too,to see how it looks.I'm not sure whether its best to replace the file with the changes though,or upload as a new game.does anyone have any advice on this? Thank you for the positive,constructive feedback mr cyberdevil

[Super Marshmallow Kingdom]

Creative fun! I spotted a few small potential bugs while playing: the 'saving game' message displays behind score number after a finished game, when playing with a clone the combo goes down even if just one clone dies, the magnet seems to draw coins to slightly above your head so you have to wait or jump to catch 'em, the character hit area is larger than the character when they're minimized (can be seen when a clone stands on the head of the other, and there's plenty of space between them) and after the first riches upgrade the coin counter sporadically shows flickering decimal values while collecting.

Overall though this was a fun play, challenging if you want it to be but not so difficult you get annoyed or tired of it. Plenty of upgrades, awesome graphics and a fun idea too. Nice work!

[Ditto]

The triangular style of design in all the levels, characters etc was pretty neat, there's a lot of sparkling going on, effectual and at times pretty beautiful sceneries. Controls are smooth, sounds are ambient, the dual characters is a clever twist though it's nice it's not present all the time. I like it starts right away, without introduction, it's a fun adventure, ambient and atmospheric. Plenty to explore. Nice work!

[Gingerbread Circus 3]

Hmm, I'm getting a "Download Latest Version of Flash" error while trying to play this. Pops up right after the initial ads and loading screen (with graphics... so that's a bit odd). I do have the last version of Flash, which probably goes without saying considering time of post. Hope this can be fixed, the previous two installments were awesome and I have no doubt this is the same. Keep it going!
