teremaki's game Reviews on Newgrounds

[AV: The Pixel Lord]

This seemed like an easy game in the first level where the enemies are slow and you can move smoothly.
But then it got so hard in the succeeding levels that I rage quit a few times.
The difficulty increase was gradual and the music was good.
But, the worst part about this game is that if you press the space bar to shoot at the instant the level ends, you get killed (99% of the time atleast). After dying for the 50th time because of that, I decided to call it quits. You should immediately rectify that.
If there's no way out you could atleast have given an audio indication when the timer reaches 5 seconds, because it's not possible to keep watching the timer.
Overall, a decent game. But, it can be much better if the glitches are removed.

Thank you for your helpful review.

Yeah I can understand the rage-quitting, and if I ever do make a game that has a space shooter element, I'll be sure to implement an audio indication, that's a great idea.

I will try to fix these glitches. Thanks again.

[Stealth Pervert]

This is a really nice game. Stealth and perversion together !
I liked the 8 bit old school feel and the controls were smooth.
I feel you could have gone a bit further with this concept and added some more mini games like a panty raid , full stripping or even sex.
And for a little humor, you could have shemales too, living in the same house, who are given away by a little bulge in their panties and if you fail to look closely , you get a shaft right in your face when you unzip him.
Kudos for the random generation, it feels different even though the gameplay is the same.

[Man Who Sold The World]

This is a great art game.
The controls are fluid and smooth. There seems to be a story, unfortunately not too interesting.
The atmosphere is good and the music is especially brilliant.
The little stick animations of running and swimming were pleasant to look at.
Having to play the entire Arboretum over and over again gets tiring, you could have made it shorter.
Overall, a decent game. If you had made the basic premise clear in the beginning, it would have been much better.

Excellent feedback, thanks!

[Cowstory]

I kept telling myself over and over that it wouldn't be like the game IWBTG but alas, I was wrong.
It wasn't ridiculously as hard as that but it almost reaches that mark.

The plus points are that the cow moves fast and the music is nice and checkpoints are many and strategically placed.

The minus points are that it is hard as hell and the medals don't work so that made me rage.
I kept on retrying because I thought I could finish it, but then I came face to face with the big bad wolf, now that really was too much for me.
The grass hedge that comes down and crushes you should only kill you if you touch the bottom, not the sides.
It's very easy to get stuck in an infinite death loop.
You should decrease the difficulty drastically to make the game fun, especially in the last wolf stage. You don't want this game to end up like IWBTG which is a piece of crap.

Next time keep all this in mind and work hard to earn my remaining two stars.
Good luck!

[The Last Day On Earth]

This game is really bad but that's not all.
The part I hate the most is that you used 7MB to make this.
And you used Hania's amazing song! Now people find the song shitty !
As for the game, it's a pathetic attempt at an art game. Nothing was in the right place.
If it's supposed to be an art game, then you shouldn't get killed all.
If it's supposed to be an adventure game, you should stop making games altogether.

You have 3 lives to get past the '?' things, but instant kill anywhere else ?
You didn't even design it from the player's perspective, you should know that you shouldn't introduce luck in a game like this where death means going back to the start.
Please think about the players next time when you design your games.

[Lonely No More]

Nice game, but nothing special.
These kind of games have become very common recently.
It uses very simple gameplay and sentimental messages to trick you to like it.
This particular one was disappointing, the emo messages weren't that good.
It was a bit challenging, I'l give you that.
Looking forward to the sequel.

[Scylla Starfighter]

Incredible graphics, yet a very limited gameplay.

First of all, I would like to congratulate you for fitting this entire masterpiece in just 8 MB.
The voice acting is awesome and so is the music.
I liked the little green speaker phone videos in the corner and also the fact that two blue lines at the top of the screen flashed to indicate a checkpoint.
And lastly, the graphics were amazing with various worlds and they totally immerse you into the game.

Now for the bad stuff:
The game itself gets boring after 2 minutes and there's absolutely nothing to do except spam the shoot button.
The enemies are hardly a challenge and so are the asteroids/ buildings.
The bosses are a refreshing change but not at all a challenge.
In some cases the enemy fire cannot be dodged at all.
And lastly, I would have liked a little explanation in the final boss level and not be left floundering like a fish (or rather a Scylla Starfighter spaceship, lol)

All in all, brilliant work. I expect a lot more next time. Try using more than 8 MB and building a better gameplay, better enemies and bosses.
Cheers !
