Cyberdevil's game Reviews on Newgrounds

[Alchemical Musick]

I like the idea; being able to toggle the different tracks. They all overlap nicely, so you get to listen to some good music and mess around with sounds in a fun way. It seems some layers play louder than others though, and volumes out the other layers. Still great though, and a lot of variations to chose from. Nice work!

[Tower of Babblers]

Oh man, lmao, love the Tower of Babel title pun! Somehow that always makes me think of Doom... but yeah, I know it's completely unrelated. There's not much of an in-game introduction (actually, there is no in-game introduction!) but the idea does seem pretty neat. Different, fun, and with sprite graphics. Good play!

[Brave knights]

Haha, well this was... different. :D Love the idea, and the square battlefield works well as well. it's almost like a game of chess that way. Great graphics, great gameplay, great work!

[Spring Ninja]

Woo, love Ninjas! This was a fun game, but the controls are... hard. Wouldn't be so difficult if it wasn't for those moments (they start pretty soon, too) where you have to keep clicking the ninja in mid-air. Maybe it's something you get used to after excessive playing, but I haven't gotten used to it yet. Still, great idea, challenging levels; plenty of variation. Also, medaisl! Nice work!

[Furious Moles (Mk.2)]

Awesome! I've played a few whack a mole games earlier, but this was something else! Nice variation popping in some ice cream and mallets, haha, and the duet mode was the best part of all. Plenty of comedy, plenty of fun; even some good music! Nice work!

[Raven Crime]

Probably one of the best designed detective games I've played in a while! I like the noire setting, the intuitive game controls (also a great introduction to them, which lets you skip past everything with ease if you learn quickly). It's interesting how it combines 2D and 3D too, and the graphics are great. Was a bit surprised to see such a clearly animated character with all them details surroundings, but it does work well. Plenty of people and items to interact with, places to explore; one big crime to solve. Nice work!

[Pests]

Woo, this was pretty fun. The pills are HARD to get large quantities of, and once they pop up near the pipes it feels like they're impossible to reach (maybe not have such a constant stream of foes? how about short random pauses?), but it's a fun idea, and the layout reminds me of the old Super Mario Bros games where you just jumped around on turtle shells, it's a kicked nostalgia that way. Nice graphics, nice music, nice game!

Btw, also wish there was some form of killcount. That 2000 pests killed medal felt like it took forever. :P

[Notes]

This was a fun idea for a game, but the control is... hard! When the notes are moving like that it's hard to aim in on the notes when their hit area is pretty much only on the round part. The music was ambient and smooth and the game easy to play, but I just can't get best performance! How do you do it? I clicked every single note on the first track and still didn't get it (admitted, I did right click occasionally to pause a couple of times, but that shouldn't affect the score, should it?). Apart from difficulty, great game. Keep it going!

[#Run3rd The Game]

ARgh! This game is so addicting and aggravating at the same time. Reaching the Ninja Turtles level took a fair share of attempts, but even after then... it seems like I just can't make 20 miles. The final medal... is it even possible? Is there even a finish line? Sometimes I feel like I just haven't trained enough. :P

I love the game though. All those encouraging words, quotes and other interesting things from occasionally movies, series, games (?) and regular places/sports are a real booster. The graphics are swift, the level ups are rewarding (even though it's not really a reward when everything just goes faster and faster), but... occasionally the random level designs get waaaay too difficult, with gaps and ledges one after another; no place to jump before a large jump; stuff like that. It is a cool feature, but at the same time it would've been good with predictable layouts that you can actually practice on and get better, and not random layouts where it's a combination of skill and luck. Also, if you level up at the start of a jump and the timing's wrong, you don't jump! Fatality. Not to mention those hills, where sometimes you just don't get a boosted jump at the end of them. Setting this minor things aside, it was a lot of fun. Keep up the good work!
