carmamazum's game Reviews on Newgrounds

[The Valley Rule]

I had played this game a long time ago, but now with this account I can express what I feel...

This little game is truly a work of art!

The gameplay is perfect and satisfying, the music and sound effects are beautiful, the enviroment is wonderful, the main character is adorable (I felt bad every time she died because of me), the theme of the game is simple but very entertaining.

To not extend this review any longer: This game is just perfect.

Ryan Carag and Bill Kiley, you two are a pair of geniuses.
You made one of the best games I've had the honor of playing.

Sorry for the bad English.

I really wanted to give you at least 4 stars because the concept is really good and I like it, but the problem is that the game has a couple of failures:

First, most of the time I had no idea what I was doing, because the game has no instructions. Although the objective is clear (save the flowers) I don't know how to do it because there is nothing to tell me how! And that frustrates me a lot. Not even the information you give in the description is enough to help me.

Second, the resources run out too fast. I don't have enough time to do something because the powers do not last long enough.

Another problem I had was that the letters bugged a little, but I don't know if this is a failure of the game, maybe it's just my explorer or other thing.

I reiterate, I like the concept; but these two things alone make it impossible for me.

Sorry for the bad English.

platformalist responds:

Hi carmamazum! Thanks for the feedback!

Just for future reference, if you press [down] on the intro screen, there's a whole set of instructions. In future games, I'll be sure to make the instructions a little more obvious. The game is probably going to work best for you in an updated version of Chrome or Firefox, but I understand your frustrations if your current browser isn't working for you. Thanks again for playing!

The maneuverability of the cannon is quite good, the bad thing is that the shot is very slow and the meteorites are fast; you need to have the aim of a sniper to hit them. Although, the Hit Detection is really well done.

The cities of the corners are almost impossible to defend, for the same reason that the shot is very slow and the meteorites are very fast.

A little music or at least sound effects would have been fine, it's very boring without audio. The general design of the game could also be better.

That would be all. I hope this review helps you to improve your future games. Good luck.

(Sorry for the bad English).

copacademy2001 responds:

Thank you, i was noticing the same things about the far cities being harder to defend and was wondering if maybe slowing down the meteors just to those cities would help as well as possibly speeding up the laser.
i am currently working on the audio media right now and hope to have it implemented by tomorrow night. i am stuck though on the style of music i should use for the background.
thank you again for your constructive criticism of the game i hope to make it a fun and enjoyable game for someone to play on a coffee break or just to kill some time.

//update:
as of now there is sound for laser fire and meteor explosions..
to work on speed of meteor fall (probely current speed will be the fastest but they will fall at different rates.) Thank you all for your input.

[Epic Platformer Obby (HUGE UPDATE)]

The gameplay is pretty good, but the platfforms are very unstable.
The damage detection is just bad, and it's too much to ask for some music?
Also... "To be continued..."? Does it mean that this is a demo or what?

I give it two stars because if the point was to troll me and make me write a review, you did it very well.

MrHotDog77 responds:

(very late fucking response)

No, this wasn't meant to troll anyone whatsoever. That was really how much I sucked at game-making. Hell, I was even 11 years old at the time (which doesn't make it any better lmao).

But yeah, I'll find a way to make this game more appealing hopefully (tbh i haven't made any updates since late 2018, basically abandoning this game). If not, then fuck it, this game is officially dead. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

[Chicken Run!]

Ummm... Where should I star?

This game is just unstable. Random objects appear out of nowhere, the boss mode is virtually unplayable, the skin selection boxes change place each time I click on them and also do not select the skin I want (not to mention that I unlock two without doing anything), the damage detection is awful, the game is HORRIBLY easy and boring since there are almost no "enemies" and in fact it is really easy to doge them and finally the game has many, but MANY bugs.

But, the gameplay is decent enough (although it is slow) and the design of the chickens seemed pretty charming, at least for me.

In conclusion, try harder for the next time, and I hope this review helps you to improve.

Good luck, sorry for the bad english.

ChickenBurry responds:

Hello! Thanks for your response. First of all, i'd like to say this game is only v0.1, and i will be fixing the boss. Also, one of them you get for playing 10 minutes, so if you did play that long, thanks!
another one you get for defeating the boss, and one for clicking the button on the top left corner.
Note that this game was just made yesterday. I will be updating the game. Also, can you tell me more info about the bugs so i can fix them? Thanks!

EDIT: Alright, i have fixed and changed the boss and fixed the bug where if you click the normal chicken it becomes a boss chicken. Thanks for helping make this game better!

[awsome platformer game]

Ummm... I don't know whether to take this seriously or not. I don't know if it's a joke or something else (for a moment I thought it would be a screamer) but I will try to be as serious as possible:

I would encourage myself to say that the gameplay is good, if it were not for the fact that the character slips a lot and it's very unstable; it's like walking on ice.

The damage detection is just horrible, I die unfairly again and again and again. It seems that you did not test the game, because it is too buggy.

All this makes the game virtually unplayable.

I insist, if you really tried to create a good game, I hope that what I've just told you will help you to improve your future games.

If it's any consolation, I liked the simple design and the music that you chose.
That's all. Sorry for the bad english.

[Dino Squad Adventure]

The gameplay is pretty decent and the design of the characters is very cute. The difficulty is quite fair, though, I don't know if it's normal that I can not kill the enemies.

The music is also really adorable.
In general, it's a good two player game.

[Boo!]

Another really good puzzle game, with Halloween theme on it! :D

The puzzles are very clever and fun to play (I actually managed to finish the 16 levels).

Really nice and cute, good to have a good time!

Sorry for the bad english.

[Crypt Shyfter: Lords of Madness]

I just love this type of games, they help me to improve my english :)

I found this one really bizarre and fun. I don't know why, but the grotesquely violent and incredibly epic situations gave me a lot of laughter.

I liked the multiple routes that this game offers; that's another thing that I love about these games: The exploration and discovery factor.

Really nice game :D

CaptainJackTHAC0 responds:

You sick little puppy! Haha nah, that's awesome ;)

Glad you enjoyed it, thanks for sharing your thoughts!

[Song for a bird]

Clever puzzle game, it really makes you think. The music and the visuals are really beautiful.

Although being honest, I do not pass the third level...

It's a pity that I'm too stupid for this kind of games... Or maybe it's that I'm not a native speaker of english? No, I´m going more for the first explanation. :(

Really nice job with this game.
Also, sorry for my bad english.
