Cyberdevil's game Reviews on Newgrounds

[Pong RPG]

Really neat idea with the RPG elements! It doesn't add any insanely entertaining feats or upgrade potentials to the game, but it's definitely more entertaining than regular Pong! I'm thinking that with some potential upgrades floating around on screen, ability to multiple the projectile, create barriers etc, things might get much more interesting! There's this ancient game called Mortal Pongbat that integrates the aspects of fighting; arcade with regular Pong, and made it a real blast to play! Would love to see a modern variant of something like that, maybe even online. But anyway, real nice idea with this! The idea's great, the mechanics are flawless, but the game itself... still can get a bit monotone.

Thanks for playing, and thanks for the opinion, i'll take it into account!

Also the wizard class does have a barrier, do you mean using a barrier in a different way?

[REGEN]

A slick little platformer, with comfortable controls and crisp graphics. Bit unnecesary you can't walk backgrounds though, Game Over screen if you try return from the way which you came... why not simply make the door impossible to pass through? Dying doesn't make sense like that. Anyway, very nice little game otherwise; interestingt concept with the hundred rooms... and man, that is one huge challenge too!

Thanks you so much, I'm goig to take your suggestions!

[Golf is Hard]

What a nice little golf game! Simple; intuitive. The interface is both easy to read and use, and the gameplay's a one click action, though I really wish you didn't have to keep retrying from the starting point all the time, I suppose that is the one thing that separates this from all other Golf games, and implies the 'hard' in the title, but it'd be a lot more fun without that one restriction. Nice game overall!

Cool, thanks for playing!

[Little Dress Up Game]

Not bad! Style of drawing is smooth; effectual, accessories all fit nicely, but it does seem a little unfinished: the light blue dress can't be dragged, the dark blue pants have a blotch of paint leftover to the bottom right and there's that pink line on her body that layers over all clothes. Could use some more apparel too, and maybe backgrounds, music, all those things. Keep it going!

Oh my!!! Thank you!!! I can't believe how I did not see that!! hahaha thank you!! I'll fix it right up!

[Flat Golf]

I like the idea for this game, yet the physics don't feel very realistic at all. The ball doesn't roll far even on flat surfaces, it doesn't bounce that well off walls (so you can't use them to your advantage), if you bounce against the wall and it bounces down on the ground, it rolls backwards, etc. Also didn't like that choppy scrolling preview of longer levels, but then I found the option screen and realized that could be turned off, fortunately.

The level layouts, the types of ground, etc, all of that is great, I just wish the physics were a bit more dynamic, more bounce, longer rolls (seems possible for the ball to stop even on rounded edges btw, if you time it right), more possibility to interact with all facets of the level, bounce it off edges; walls; bounce across water, etcetc. Love the idea and level design overall, so if there's any chance for a sequel/improvement, I'll be awaiting it eagerly! Also, would be nice with faster transitions between menu items, and a camera that follows the action (ex lets you hit the ball higher instead of going out of bounds, and zooms out to capture the entire level as you do). Keep up the great work!
