Aalasteir's game Reviews on Newgrounds

[waxweaver]

Fantastic work I'm looking forward to playing more!

The game is super well-built, and the art and music are good. I like how the fullscreen is set up. It became dark, and I couldn’t do anything because I couldn’t see what I was doing, which left me a bit confused. So, I just waited until it became light again, then I knew it was important to find a light source.

I understand that you have to kill the snowy slime creatures to get wax to build torches.

How do I remove wooden walls? I just built a wooden house.

Thank you so much! @kaiakairos

I really like the cosmetics. I also crafted the Zeus staff. I defeated big Praffin,

I think it's lots of fun!

This is my final review of the experience. I thought it was fun, with good progression, and I enjoyed it. There weren’t any obnoxious achievements, such as, for example, having one that would require playing for 100 hours. All the achievements are good, and I liked the gameplay. I also enjoyed the vanity cosmetics. Good sound design and music and the paintings are great! Super fun game! Great work! @Tiltro, @StaggerNight, @OrkOrk, @Octo, @gahburguer, @EelSocks, @kaiakairos

[Untitled Rhythm Game]

What's up! This is really good for your first attempt! You should be very proud.

The input feedback for when I’m pressing keys feels very unintuitive, and you cannot customize the control scheme. I also wish the game wasn’t titled Untitled Rhythm Game. I know it’s supposed to be funny. It would be easier to understand if the controls were explained in the description as well.

The controls are something I don’t like. There’s a massive delay in the keystrokes, and the input feels off. The music plays and there is no interactivity which is confusing. First level should be super easy. The game starts incredibly fast, and there’s no clear or presented story as to why things are happening. That said, this game has a lot of potential. You’re skilled at making games, and you’ll only get better—so keep going. However, currently, it has flaws that can be improved. The game’s identity feels too close to Friday Night Funkin’ and should establish more of its own identity and premise, which I believe you can do.

I can’t make games as well as you, and you do have a lot of skill. However, stupid people like me will play your game, and if stupid people like me don’t like it, they’re not going to give you lots of money or make you rich. That is my advice.

Lusans2002 responds:

Hey! Thank you so much for your advice and kind words; they will really help in the future as I continue improving this project!

That being said, this is still a massive work in progress. I'm currently gathering a team for the project, but so far, I've done everything solo for a game jam. The input delay isn't really a delay—it's just the result of terrible charting. I'm not gonna lie, I've been using a key logger as a sort of live charting system, so it's not very precise.

The reason it feels and looks so much like Friday Night Funkin' is because that's how I learned to draw and animate. And yeah, I'm not gonna lie—I did use some Friday Night Funkin' SFX and a song as more or less a placeholder for the time being.

Again, thank you for the kind words and advice! I hope you'll come back when the game is in a more playable state and, furthermore, enjoy what it will truly become!

[Cam dress-up]

BlueEagle421 responds:

Thanks a lot! :D

[Concealed Within (TESTING)]

I like the loading screen, it feels very cinematic and magical. However, it stays on the loading screen for too long.

I waited a long time for the game to come out, and when it finally did, I read the text about the hands of Satan, into which the world has fallen. I immediately started crying because I was afraid.

You should include the controls in the Author Comments.

It’s super annoying when I try to zoom out, and the page scrolls down instead. I don’t like the controls, and the lack of sound in some parts isn’t great.

The blood effect is cool, that’s a good touch. Your game has a lot of potential, and you should build on it, but it also has many problems.

The art style is good, but I don’t understand how to stop the menu; the in-browser setup feels strange. I managed to go fullscreen by pressing a button, but the screen stayed at the same resolution, which was very odd.

@brodecoder, how did you get interested in game design?

brodecoder responds:

when i was 10 i realized there were no good roblox games lol, so i wanted to make my own. also this wont be an in browser game. thanks for the review i will work on sounds soon, also be sure to check out the settings page,there is alternate controls but they suck. contact me @eman9348 on discord if ya want

[Weekend at Mario's]

This has crazy potential like super good.

The audio is bad, but art very good and funny. There are also 2many sounds. owever, the overall idea is n1ce. If you remake the game with better (normal sounds and music) sounds and, it is a bit funny but sound can be a bit crazy but not too crazy

make the gameplay much faster! It could be really Super like Super Mario.

I will also vote 5
, Iwant to play the game, but as current state it is could be better

kairuma responds:

Thanks for the feedback. I ended up making the game play faster by decreasing the fling cooldown and making the physics less floaty. The audio is still a mess though, haha.

[RoboNips]

My experience with the game has been very positive. The style is colorful, it's easy to understand, and the gameplay is intuitive and fast. And the sound effects are very satisfying. Great music!

Where did you come up with the idea, and what did you learn from creating your game?

Chris responds:

Thank you! I was looking for a bit of a simple game to make after finishing Mazza Claus and decided to try combining two different games. In this case a platformer and break out. This was the result of that. I also considered games like he original Mario Bros as a sort of inspiration. If I were to expand on this game I would try making a multiplayer mode for it. I'm currently making another small game like this one but then after that I'm going to focus on making something more ambitious.

[Pizza Kidd - NEW DEMO! 🍕🔥]

When I click the blue button to expand to full screen, it doesn’t work. I can see that the game has a lot of potential, fantastic graphics and good sound design.

I hope there’s a way to work around WebGL to fix the issues with FMOD so there can be music.

The gameplay flows smoothly, and the actions has weight.

PizzaKiddo responds:

Hey thanks so much! We apologize for the lack of BGM on levels. FMOD was giving us issues with WebGL... we tried to note issues and lack of full screen support in the description. We really appreciate your continued support! Happy Holiday (be sure to try the complete demo on Steam!)
