BlueMonday1984's game Reviews on Newgrounds

[Soccer Ball Roller Madness]

A basic idea, executed...none too well, I feel.
The visuals were easy on the eyes, but the ball felt awful to control, general gameplay felt like a gamble with how the coins moved, and the game repeatedly refused to give me my medals, even after winning multiple times and following your instructions.

raphaelcarrard responds:

How strange... this problem doesn't happen on the Android version with Google Play Games, why isn't it working on Newgrounds?

Dude, I'm going to release the medals manually for you because I have nothing else to do.

[Gappy's Playground]

My only real complaint is having to hold Z to run - that gives me pain in my finger.

Otherwise, this is an extremely fun little playground, with some truly top-notch movement. I can see the seeds of what would become Coinkeeper's Cantrip in this.

[Gappy's Adventure : Coinkeeper's Cantrip (DEMO)]

My only complaint with this demo is the lack of an auto-run feature - means I have to constantly hold down Z to move at top speed, which strains my finger.

Everything else is top-fucking notch. This was a goddamn brilliant platformer. Hope to see the full release soon!

[Pumpkin Battle]

I remembered playing this on Crazy Monkey Games as a kid.
Coming back, I'd say this definitely holds up as a quirky RPG parody - fight animations are pretty damn solid, and the fight itself is a fun little romp, if nothing particularly deep.

[Trivia Night at Applebee's]

A short, sweet, straightforward, and pretty fun trivia game, with a few cool secrets sprinkled in.
That ending was pretty interesting - seems this is linked to some wider HiveClock lore...

[Five Nights at Dance!]

A pretty simple little rhythm game, good to kill a few minutes.
Ended up using an autoclicker after a couple attempts - the timing on those buttons can be real strict.

(If anyone wants to unlock Springtrap, finish Night 6 multiple times - should be twice or thrice.)

[2D Cube]

A basic puzzle platformer, heavily held back by janky collision and physics which frequently kill me or render the level unwinnable. Of particular note are the obvious ground seams - those stop my movement or let me pass whenever they feel like it.

raphaelcarrard responds:

I apologize, friend, but at least you managed to win the game from what I saw :)

[Rat Wrap]

A fun platformer with a pretty clever gimmick, and a style that's equal parts distinctive and easy on the eyes. Very nicely done.

[Naomi Simulator]

A simple, but pretty fun shitpost. Feels like Golden Luigi takes his sweet time to show up.

[Ladder Slide: Dice Puzzle]

A simple, but very clever spin on an age-old board game - the pixel art's nothing special, as you admit, but its perfectly serviceable and doesn't get in the way of the gameplay.

The tutorial itself was pretty damn solid, being comprehensive enough to cover everything you need to know and fun as hell in its own right.
