Tomsan's game Reviews on Newgrounds

[Decision]

I played this on armor games a week or so ago. It has it all, nice graphs, great sounds, good story, guns upgrades missions etc etc etc.

All has been said I think, so ill cut to the chase.

The controls! I dont know why you chose to make the controls like this, and it does work, but it get annoying in later levels. I played about an hour or so and things started to get a bit tougher then the controls really get in the way. again the controls work, defintily, but they just suck the fun out of the game imho. You get a bit frustrated and, in my case, rage quit.

For me the controls were a reason to stop with the game, but I would love to play this with normal wasd controls. maybe you can make such a version.

FlyAnvil responds:

Please, read th description. You can change the controls at the Map.

[Atomic Puzzle]

nice

good gameplay, nice graphs, suiting music, nice sounds.

a tad hard. learning curve is steep and some more explanation would be nice.

The puzzle itself is fun, but not for to long. the extra's you encounter on later levels were not enough imho. So there were a bit to much levels to keep me interested. but I'll probbaly come back (assuming it saves)

nice game

KingDotCom responds:

It's very difficult to set a learning curve that fits everyone. When we tested the game at first, we got too many "too easy" comments, so made levels 10+ a little more difficult. Hopefully not too difficult though. :) But puzzles should be challenging.

And yes, it autosaves.

OMG

what a nice game... I was working hard on a school project and was done. so i decided to get some R&R.. I spent hours on this game. and it felt like minutes

overal the game is pretty easy but I had to re run the last set of levels because I couldnt find 1 gearwheel.. omg I didnt want to use the walkthrough but eventually did for the last gear (it was hidden).

very very nice puzzle game. It did lag a little in the final levels, but not really that it got annoying.

also I would prefer it if you can choose a level once you have completed a 'world' now I have to go through every level while I just want to do one specifically, it almost made me give up on the ending.

once again very fun game that kept me entertained waaay to long.

killabunnies responds:

Thanks! We are really pleased. Keep people entretained is what realy matters to us!

[Hippolyta]

I so want this to work out

but for me it doesnt. The game works great, I love the story the voices and the gameplay, but you need time to recover from an action e.g. a jump or duck.

In lvl 2 there are 2 jumps right after eachother and then immediatly followed by a farmer. I cant figure out a way to kill him. I hear him between the 2 jumps so I cant thrown cause I need to jump, and then you land right in front of him

anyone knows how to dodge this? I tried blocking it did help

So although the feel is great and it works pretty smoothly I couldnt get past lvl2 and believe me I tried. Balance is pretty important in a game imo so that why the rating isnt that high

if anyone can help me out with lvl to... it would be much appreciated

Evil-Dog responds:

can you try the new version I just uploaded, it should fix that, clear your cache to make sure you get it

[Season of War]

uhm

i seriously tried it, read all the instructions etc ect but it lacks THE most important shortcut and this game cant be played without it. an move-attack key.

You can play around with your armies but they dont auto attack.. why?? I have to click all the enemies? they dont even attack buildings without the order. sometimes they seems to do things without an order but in general its unplayable

without this feature it just doesnt work. I have to manage my armies constantly, and when I am needed elsewhere an army in the midst of battle wont do anything.

nope I dont get why you didnt put in an attack-move key its crap without it.

Xplored responds:

There are some reasons why, but I agree you're right. We'll do it next time. Thanks.

[.: Santa's Rampage :.]

lol

idea is ok, but what a nasty game. boring. only some more enemies when u advance, just really very crappy. gameplay also could use some work.

graphs arent great,
music sucks,
powerups are not really interesting
bombs dont kill enemies, so they only destroy buildings for points? who cares about that.

nope silly game, but I guess its (just past) Christmas so 3/10? 1/5?

Archawn responds:

Opinions are overrated.

[Icycle]

sorry to burst your bubble

but comon THATS it? a few very easy levels with no real goal except gathering some freaking soap bubbles... fine its well made fine it looks nice, but its not really challenging nor does it have much variation. its just a move and jump thingy, nothing new, very short, boring un-challenging and not THAT 'beautiful'

I was expecting a lot more considering the score and comments I read before staring.

Its not that its a terrible game, but just not freaking awsome as some propose. Ill rate it fair. 3/5

DampGnat responds:

I set out to make a lush version of a simple RETRO style game for casual gamers. If you found this easy, I'm impressed but I also suspect that you're more of a hardcore gamer.

[Kiwitiki Flower Paradise]

hmm

graphics are okay, control are oke too although I would prefer keys since I went off screen to often. Not much of a challenge to the game. atleast not to finish it.

getting the points to clear the level wasnt hard, to get the second 'medal' you needed to put some more effort in it, but the 'golden medal' is impossible imho. I tried to get it at lvl one I cant find any secret area's but the top score is around 47000, while that is enough for the 2nd medal its not nearly enough for the gold one. thats kind a of a turn off. I would really bother to play this on my mobile since there are so much cooler games available.

since there is no real challenge I give it a 5, music is good though.

Fred-dijiko responds:

I give you a tip to get big score. Try to catch all the flowers without sprecial flower X2 and finish the chain with its! :)
And don't break the chain!

[The Enrichment Center]

oke

well I like the concept. Although the voice was annoying now and then it did contribute to the experience.. so keep that

pretty much just clicking your way through, I feel like I am missing some dynamic.

as far as the right clicking, I didnt try, but I never cant resist the urge to press tab when I feel I am stuck. try to remove the tab function as well so there is no way of cheating.

the dying clips can be better to.

RAWowner333 responds:

ok, i will also do that

thank you for the review

[Best Friends Forever(Old)]

good

I ended in lvl17 there was a bug; the box didnt press on the button; funny game though I always like puzzle games in which you can make youre own level but a seven will suffice

Perry responds:

Ok thats fine, I guess?
