BlueMonday1984's game Reviews on Newgrounds

[666K Snake]

A simple, but pretty fun way to celebrate a Portal milestone.

You could almost call this the Submission of the Beast.

Cyberdevil responds:

You could indeed! Good call.

[Soundboard - Scooby Doo]

A simple, but fun soundboard to dick around with. Doing a quick run-over, this is working perfectly in Ruffle.

Cyberdevil responds:

The first submission I made that passed judgement, dem memories. :')

Cool that it still holds up.

[Bando's Comic Wizard]

There's obviously a fair bit more you could to improve this, but as it is, this is a pretty fun little gadget to play with, and was an absolute godsend for comic creators before the Art Portal got multi-art support.

I'd like to give particular praise to Montrose and Dieswyx for the bursting-with-personality art and the banging Amiga-style chiptune - makes this feel like so much more than a simple comic utility.

KittyhawkMontrose responds:

Thank you so much! I'm glad you like it! @Dieswyx really knocked it out of the park with the song, really capturing that Amiga-style as you said.

We've got more coming to Bando's! We're going BEYOND comics! 🚀

[Bride]

A very impressively done recreation of a truly vintage console experience.
Easy to pick up and play, and adorable as hell, too.

(The alarm was a nice touch - sure, its redundant in an age of smartphones, but its just such a cool little feature!)

KittyhawkMontrose responds:

We wanted to be thorough in our design! This is an actual Game & Watch homebrew game after all, and they always had an alarm. Took me forever to design that bell! Glad you like it!! 💖

[Help Phil Find His Dildo]

This is a pretty solid troll submission - the crude-as-hell visuals and VA work complement the charmingly crude setup.

Gameplay's pretty damn boring once you get the hang of it, though the random references did a good job getting a chuckle out of me.

KALane2007 responds:

Thank you

The gameplay I feel should stay the same but I might add more events to it to make it less boring

As for the references more will be added

[Spooky Music Machine]

A cool little digital theremin to mess with.
I quite like the skeumorphism and button SFX - gives it a bit of a physical feeling, whether on mobile or PC.

This feels like some cool thing you'd have found on mobile, before app stores started getting drowned in a cavalcade of crap.

KittyhawkMontrose responds:

Thanks! @alsoknownas1 was working on a sound engine that was interactive, and I thought yeah, this could work as a toy! Glad you like the design. I wanted it to have that retro skeuomorphism of the early App Store or Flash. I dig that style so much.

[Off the Grid - Summer 2024 Collab]

So many awesome artstyles, so many cool characters. Kitty, you beautiful bastard.

I could look at this all fucking day.

KittyhawkMontrose responds:

Thank you! @WillTommoDDD brought together a great team and did an amazing job with the logo and design. It was super easy for aka1 and I to make an interface. And that art needed the best interface! So many good artists!

[NG Levels 2013]

A neatly-made archive for Newground's current level icons, even if it has been surpassed by NG Levels 2014.

The "About" screen does pops up underneath the level text when viewing the "Levels", "More Levels" and "Top Levels, Etc" tabs - by my guess, that's either an issue with Ruffle or with you making a minor goof with the text's depth.

Cyberdevil responds:

Oh dang, a bug! Nice find man...

I wonder if I still have the source for this, will see if I can fix that real quick if I do. Otherwise hopefully there's nothing like that with the newest... I think it's my goof with how the elements are layered there, Ruffle hopefully doesn't change that.
