Cyberdevil's game Reviews on Newgrounds

[[Pr']]

This was a fun adventure! The wirey structure of the layouts is pretty creative, though maybe you could make the lines that you can walk through a different gradient than the ones that are solid, a little grayer? The controls are simple though, and the gravity-modifying orbs are an interesting addition. It's not a rather long game, but the added secrets do add some re-playability. It reminds of Knytt, though I guess that's the one game I think of every time I play an exploration game like this. :) Nice work!

Thank you for your full review. It was a pleasure to read it.
About gradient: unfortunately this is strongly monochrome game.

I see that you played well, you've found both secrets.

[Searching for Elephant]

Nice.

I like the fact that all speech is shown as images instead of text, in that sense the character is still not really human, it adds a mythical touch maybe. The graphics are all stylishly composed of what looks like both photos, textures and animated design. it's a working mixture, especially with the color scheme of mostly gray. Nice work!

It's pretty amazing seeing this concept taken to Flash. I've played plenty of regular game Tycoons with theme parks, restaurants, hospitals, you name it, but the same thing in Flash?! That's a step in the right direction. It's obviously not as thorough as console counterparts, but there seems to be an impressive amount of gameplay packed in the package all the same. I like the crisp pixel graphics and there are plenty to chose from. The ambient music fits in, the goals are clear, and all facets of the business are managed. Nice work!

No intstructions on what to do? How to play? What the point is? No notice on what your score is? Or what level it is? Or how long time there's left? Apart from all these missing bits of information it was a fun game, simple controls, progressive challenge and a leaderboard for reward, but it would be good with some added info within the file. Keep it up!

What an advanced interface for such a simple game. I like the idea, and I like the fact that a gaming interface with a vast array of items is all integrated. Sound, videos... this has some pretty complex features. I'm surprised it can all be included with Flash. Nice work!

[Clownoids]

Well this was an interesting idea for a game. It's like Super Pang combined with Asteroids. I love the sound effects, the subtle popping, and the graphics are neat, but the way the ship keeps getting kicked back each time you shoot is a bit annoying. Good time waster though, keep it up!

Genius

I love the idea, and the Flash MX brings back memories too, but there's really not that many accessories to chose from. Also, clicking the audio button multiple times results in multiple layers, and it doesn't loop! This could be expanded upon. :)

[that phat tutorial]

This is a buff tutorial, lots of content stashed within it. The text is easy to read, and the instructions are easy to understand, but the interface looks somewhat unprofessional TBO. Maybe focus on fewer colors next time? Also, clicking the audio button multiple times results in multiple instances of audio. Might be easier with a toggle audio button. Otherwise it's good though, nice work! This is probably my favorite ParagonX9 track too. :)

[Marble City (5)]

Nice.

The peaceful intersection fits perfectly when you die, huh. It's a fun game, a nice hybrid of action and platformer, though the levels sometimes feel a bit chunky and difficult to manouver. It would also hav been great if you could control the clock blob with the WASD keys instead of the regular arrows, that would go much better wit the mouse if you're right-handed. That's the only flaw I can really pinpoint though, controls are simple, and there's plenty of platformer action. Nice work!

Thanks for your response. I have just been considering making a new game in the series after a 5 year break, WASD controls are something I will definitely add.

[SD-Thrust]

This was harder than I expected it to be. I like the oldskool graphics, and the linear layer across the screen, but the game itself was... slow. It's challenging enough getting to the other side of the screen without losing all of your fuel, but having to move slowly to get there, it just feels a bit monotone. With a picked up speed, this would be great. keep it going!
