Cyberdevil's game Reviews on Newgrounds

[Kazahana: No Exit]

This must be the fastest start to a game that I've ever seen. A two second cutscene (at most) and then... you're in. Took a second before I noticed the 'Where the hell am I?' text, but once I did the entire plot of the game is perfectly clear. I love the fact that you're cast into a room with surprise, that you're immediately aware it's a puzzle/strategy game of sorts, with RPG elements considering the cutscene, and the 'Where the hell am I?' text both introduces the plot/setting and seems to make the initial confusion in finding the text all the more deserved.

The gaphics are nice, smooth and easy, and varied at the same time (a great example are the tiles in the starting room, all with different angles/applications of similar gradients. The game control is easy to get a hang of, just point and click. Music? Not much, but the sound effects are great. Nice work!

[Spitwad]

lmao, a truly different time of fighting game! It's a fun idea on screen, though it'd just be gross in real life. Simple graphics, smooth controls; good gameplay overall. I appreciate the fact that you can play against both a computer or another player too. Lotta fun!

[Space Vaders]

Space Invaders with a... twist? It's a nice clone of the classic game, without much difference other than the appearance of the enemies and interface. Just as fun as I remember it, but still.. can't help feel it would've been cool with some different. A plot, maybe? Keep it going!

[Tic-Tac-Blue]

Finally, there's a tic tac toe game I can actually win at! I didn't think that would ever happen. :D The AI isn't so smart, but I don't know if that's a benefit or a lack of challenge, probably a benefit at first, and a lack of challenge if you keep playng. Difficulty settings would be nice. As for the interface and gameplay, it's just perfect, sleek and easy to use. Nice work!

Did you enable the Clever computer mode? I don't think you did.

[Hangman]

I like the idea, but it's a rather limited game. How about making the word random each time you play, adding levels, different themes, and maybe larger hit areas around the buttons? Keep it going!

Even in regular platformer 2D this game would be awesome, but this new outlook on the world makes it all the more amazing. I'm thinking of the potential this type of game design could have a remake on old games like Doom, it'd be pretty cool to strafe forward and shoot enemies in the distance... or Serious Sam, where it really was like that even though you could move freely. Anyway, as for this game, I love the graphics, the movement, and the creative plot where you interact and discover. Great game!

[Escape From 26]

A mysterious exploration game, with really great graphics. The angles from which different sceneries are portrayed looks great, and the eerie music makes them seem darker than they really are. I like the glistening stars to hint at objects, and the leaf effect to mark the season. It's all very atmospheric and captivating. Nice game!

[Swords and Sandals 2]

It's pretty cool the game has it's own intriductory theme song! Apart from the ads, and that introductory menu that shouldn't need to be there with a standalone game, it looks much better than the previous one. Simple interface, sleeker than the former, much more flexibility in character creation, and a more guided tour into the world were you fight and conquer. Just as fun, but with better graphics and a much better introduction. Also, less ads! Keep it going.

[Tutorial of Flash art]

Hmm, when the 'you choosed the right tutorial' pops up I'm wondering if I really did choose the right one. :) It turns out the tutorials are good though, there's plenty of things to learn, good music, good background, and the note feature is an unexpected addition, pretty useful, though it's a really small form to really keep notes in. Hoping for more tutorial stuff!

thanks for the feedback :)

Rhythm games like this are always a lot of fun. Great music, funky background shifts, funky foes and incredibly ease of gameplay. Just move with mouse and keep a button pressed down to shoot, just the kind of controls I like. Great work!
