starrykid's game Reviews on Newgrounds

[WildFlow]

Its a pretty fun game. I tiny bit repetitive. The sharks and the lightning both continue on after a short while when you hit about day 3. Here's an example, day 4 after the lightning bit, the plane came up. It started to do its thing and shoot at me. The storm clouds were gone and the lightning was still shooting at me. It was about half way in the part with the plane. Same goes for the sharks inside the storm bit. Not a real game breaking issue, but it might need attention. Or maybe that was supposed to be like that. In that case disregard my last statement. Music was spot on for this. Controls were pretty responsive and fun to use. The font is very interesting, and I think went very well with this. If I see this game in the future I don't think I would hesitate to play it again. Great game, and keep up the great work!

Thank you for your comments; I'm glad that you enjoyed playing the game. The game wasn't intended to make each phase of the day overlap so I might have to look into it (I must've inputted some incorrect numbers).

Your ideas are fresh and I really enjoyed this game. Albeit being on the shorter side. Only thing that killed this was the controls. You really have to make your movements deliberate. Not much fluidity. It's not unplayable though. I'm not going to dock you for the Fallout boy MIDI. I'm just saying you might need some better music. There is a very, very diverse arrangement of music in the music section. Most artists would love to have their music featured in a game. It can work two ways. Their music is seen on here and people playing can click on the artist and check their music out. Or they listen to a track and see your game on the list of related content and might click your game to play. Good times will follow. Just make sure to annotate who's music you put in your game. Other than that it's really fun and I would love to see more from you or possibly a Bounty Hunt 2! Keep up the good work!

I intended to give the artists credit for their music, however I forgot. I'll fix it right away. Thank you.

Pretty fun! my biggest gripe why I'm not a huge fan is that when I hit the W key sometimes it sticks and rams a wall. Huge, Huge let down when I get in a groove and the character just rams into the next ceiling. Every ten it resets which is alright. The big thing with tat is that when I hit my tenth ceiling it didn't reset and I hit an invisible ceiling. If the stuck W key weren't a thing I would really enjoy this.

[Fruit Snake]

Not bad, fun concept that worked out pretty well. Some levels do kinda jump though. 5 apples at first, then 17, then 27 apples and 27 oranges, and then it was like 17 apples and 36 oranges or something, ect... Thats a bit off to me, it goes up and down. What it should do go up at a constant but somewhat steady pace to dictate a sense of difficulty. Imagine fighting a mid level boss in a video game as an end level boss then fighting a end level boss at the beginning and then a few mobs as a mid level boss. Its just out of order, and needs some sort of progression. The audio is something else though. Its funny to say the least. I get what it is, some remake of Popcorn. It seemed a little out of key in some bits. I do give you props for a mute button though, thank you for adding it. I used it once to see if it worked, not to block out the song. I actually had a bit of a laugh at that. Overall not too bad, if any just some minor changes and it could get some good scores. Keep it up!

Major glitch! I played around for a bit looking at everything, and I went to see what happens when you get caught by the guard. Well after I got caught I got sent back to the tunnel. Celeste climbed out of the tunnel and then nothing. I couldn't move, I couldn't use the menu, no escape, nothing. I tried clicking inside the screen because when you click outside of the screen it pauses, nothing happened. Thank you so much for not making me watch the cut scene again after I started a new game. Absolutely nothing wrong with the cut scene. It's just I would rather not watch it over and over. I also tried the continue option but still the problem persists. The new game option does fix the issue. So after playing a bit I can see how good this game can be. I want to say it almost reminds me of rescuing the princess in the castle/palace. The guards are somewhat easy to get by, not a bad thing, but they can see you through the walls. They are a little easy to overcome because of all the Matryoshka doll (yes I did have to look that up) looking hiding things. It did get a little annoying when I walked near each and every prisoner cell and the prisoners made sure that they had a conversation with me. I get that most if not all had some story or task to them but why not make it so the player has to walk over to them and use an action button like the space bar to talk to them. I love the get 10/10 drops/bit of water you get super speed, nice touch. Sorry I would make this review alot longer but I'm quite tired, but I do have something very interesting to tell you. The game was on pause and I switched over to a new tab and watched a youtube video. I full screened said video and the music from the game played over top of the video play or pause. I've never had something do this so some testing is in order! Great game, could use some minor tweaks. Keep it up!

Thanks for letting us know! We'll work to fix the issue.
