Cyberdevil's game Reviews on Newgrounds

[a Grain of Truth]

This is beautiful. Just beautiful. The layout of the game, the images, the mythical story itself, bordering the bridge between fantasy and reality, the music, the images. Well I said that already but the imagery in this game is really something else. Haven't finished it yet but I think I'll take my time with it, this seems like one of those gems worth savoring and exploring every facet of. Thanks for a great game!

Many, many nice words. Thank you very much for it. It's a real pleasure for my Bro and me to hear that you like it. Thanks for playing!

[On The Run]

Playing this, it's clear how much my mathematical skills have really deteriorated since I finished school. :/ The idea of adding some equations to unlock the doors works well though, and it's good practice I guess. Feels the platformer would be much more fun without though, and much quicker to play through, but it's a working combo on classic jump and run and puzzle. Keep it going!

[Make A Tankmen 2]

Now this has got to be the most extensive Tankmen dressup so far. Great diversity in the expressions especially. Would be nice with some added speech bubbles to go with the moving lips, and how about faces that you can customize yourself, and also.. a canvas to place the figures on without having to move everything out of the way first. Overall though it's designed well. keep it going!

[Tankmen Soundboard]

Great idea! it's a soundboard with all the most common phrases, all in good (though varying in volume) quality. The interface is simple and easy to use, with good hit areas on the buttons, an easy way of stoping all sounds and an easter egg in the character. It's got all a Tank Men soundboard needs to have. Nice work!

[TankMan DressUp]

I love the idea, but there ought to be more to do with this. There are a few different sets of glasses/eyes, a few expressions and a few motives for the shirt, but that's basically it. Only one pair of shoes! No pants! No shirts! One hat! With some added variety this would be awesome. Also, how about adding some different backgrounds? keep it going!

[Balls Brothers]

Simple fun with puzzles and dynamics, nice! The graphics might seem a bit childish, but this is great fun for all ages, and the last levels do require some clever thinking to complete. Controls work great, and the level layouts are... well, clever. Nice work!

[Atomic]

Hey, that was a fun! This was a both stylish and addicting timewaster. Took a few seconds to get used to the controls but after that it's a piece of cake, despite the innovative/different design. I like the way the pattern of the shots change with each level, and the fact that you don't actually need to avoid everything to progress, just do your best. The medals and leaderboard are a nice reward, good work!

[souldude]

This was a really unique idea for a game. Actually it's more like an infomercial on souls than a game, a venture through a world where each room just just a lesson in the human being. There are comedic elements but at the same time it's kind of a tragic concept, but still interesting to go through. There's actually a movie called '21 Grams' dealing with life and death issues, wonder if that inspired this one? I don't remember what it was about exactly but I do recall it being pretty emotional. So anyway, nice idea for an interactive conquest. The medals add a reward to the venture, too. Keep it up!

i watched 21 grams. its about how perspective of death changes the way we think and act. it's great movie but the original myth of 21 grams comes from some academic teacher who constructed a special scales attached to hospital bed. he then put people in terminal state on that bed-scale and waited for them to die. on average people loss 21 grams at the moment of death. you can probably read more about this on wikipedia.

thank you for your review. it really did lift my spirit as i had mixed feelings about the outcome.
