BlueMonday1984's game Reviews on Newgrounds

[Flight Cosa]

A pretty basic, but fun maze game with some clever controls.

[Skater Pro]

Controls for this are extremely stiff - there's a significant delay between pressing left/right and moving, the skater's movement is pretty abrupt, and jumping completely kills his movement.

Additionally, gameplay is virtually nonexistent - I can just click the trash can without making it across and win the game that way, trivialising the single challenge this has.

Yeah I know, a lot of bus I am trying to fix, I get it.

[VS SCRAP METAL]

A pretty nicely made Sonic fangame, with nicely made 8-bit(?) visuals.

[~ S k y D i v e ~]

Visuals are pretty impressive, and your choice of music was pretty good as well.

Gameplay's also pretty good - character did feel a bit slow to accelerate, but I consider that a nitpick.

thank you! (i had no idea anyone would see this game this soon) the whole slow controls thing was made on purpose because i thought it was too easy, the games half a year old now, sorry for that (also for the love of god dont turn on mobile controls)

[Bogus Roads]

A very simple, and very fun title.
Even with the hilariously low-resolution, the game's retro artstyle and distinctive colour palette makes navigation a breeze.

The synthwave soundtrack is pretty good too - quite liked how its tempo changes with your speed.

[SWORDASH DEMO]

Quick heads-up, it seems the attack and dash commands aren't working, making me unable to advance past the first screen.
Visuals are pretty nice, though.

swimkop responds:

thx
seems like the issue not fixed
-UPDATE-
that was fixed!!!

[Scratch Fusion 2 vs Dancing Duo Castle Hippos]

Visuals and audio were okay, but the game was pretty damn short and far too easy - after taking out the first hippo, I could just stick myself in one corner and shoot him to death without any effort.

[Frogfall]

A fun as hell puzzle game, with a pleasing pixel artstyle.

[(messcratchified) UNDERSWAP: Papyrus Fight!]

A solidly made and *brutally fucking hard* fangame. Main complaint I have is that I have to restart the game after getting a game over, meaning repeat attempts take a fucking eternity.
I'm pretty impressed you and your team got so much out of Scratch - I'll admit, I generally don't expect much from Scratch projects.

MegaTailsDollOfficia responds:

JUST UPDATED! Try, after pressing the flag, pressing X! That's our attempt to making an easier Retry Button, since scratch sucks to do it, lol.

[Magli Draelyn the Half-Dragon Mage]

You did mention that swapping between mage and dragon form was gonna be awkward, but I found the basic controls pretty awkward as well.

You want to know how I'd have done it, I'd have put crouch on the down arrow and jump on the up arrow. Not 100% sure where to put everything else, but the Z/X/C keys seem like a good choice.

I did enjoy what little I could experience - I ended up giving up during the tutorial level after my little finger began hurting like hell.

JKSun22 responds:

Hello and thank you for playing! I'm sorry you had a bad experience with the keyboard controls, but I also recommend using a USB gamepad if you have one. I'll be sure to leave a note about that in the game description.
