Starblinky's game Reviews on Newgrounds

[Accelerator]

5/5 Really great use of sound effects. I've played these types of games before but none have been this immersive. The way you used the sound effects was just really great, although sometimes I wouldn't get a woosh sound when going through some passage ways.

The speedometer was pretty cool too. You can kinda cheat a bit by turning around in the tunnel though and then it will glitch out a bit. Fun game though.

[Kick the Word]

Yeah sorry I got pissed so i voted 2. :P
How is "point" part of punctuation? I'm Canadian and I've never heard that. Maybe you mean the period "."

And when I use an upgrade it fucking covers the timer with some crap, never ever cover that damn thing. I thought it was going to pause it for me. Nope.

Then died and went to the menu to figure out I needed 25 more diamonds to unlock the next part after playing for a solid while. SO MEH.

Good game otherwise though.

OOkay just one question, what does Miley Cyrus have to do with any of this? I feel like you just kinda shoe horned her in cuz she's relevant right now.
When it said she was the main character I was expecting to get to be attached to a wrecking ball and smashing through her fans or something cool. But nah.

This got boring pretty quick.

[Rocket Pets]

Artwork is amazing. The design and layout is amazing.
The gameplay is mediocre although somewhat addictive but I think the music and sound effects and artwork is to thank for that.
Sliding and using jetpack has a very annoying delay which can easily get you killed.
Landing on a platform with spikes like this <[ ] Easily kills you, hit box adjustment?
Paw coin has slight issue with hit box.
Got to the final level.. Now what? I beat all the missions? .. I dont wanna. I want some kind of endgame where i dont have to beat missions. Missions are suppose to be a side quest.
Pointless hats.. Why do devs keep doing this? Yeah it was kinda cute and funny for a while but its over done now.. Think of something better.
I wish the pets had different atributes and controls
The levels were very bland and they repeat themselves too soon. If you created a level editor or something which I'm guessing you did, it should be incredibly easy to make levels super long. And on top of that, there are spikes.. and missiles.. what else?? Nothing.. I want some more ways to die or be challenged.
If the tips of your toes so much as touch the bottom of your screen.. I mean if one pixel touches it.. you die. Why!? Give us some leway, at least half the characters body or his legs even.

Anyway, it was a really nice game to look at. Very beautiful and was kinda fun.

[no-one has to die.]

Fatal mistake.

You had too much reading before any actual gameplay started. Even if it is a text based game, we want to see what hte gameplay is like asap before we dedicate ourselves to reading a bunch of text.

[Deep Space Dash]

Really fun but actually quite easy. I didn't have to upgrade or buy any new helmets at all, actually I got bored and explored the menus and found out I could so I upgraded my current helmet fully.
Might have been better with like 2 lives or something per go until a complete gameover screen. And starting helmets should give you like 1 or 2 health only to encourage leveling up and buying helmets. That is theoretically something that could make the game funner and even last a bit longer in my opinion.
The only real issue I had with the game was that you can't go to the very bottom of the screen even though the artwork clearly shows an open space for you to travel along. This has got me caught in a bullet a few times. Annoying!

Also I dont even know what the Eye powerup does... Please tell us or update the game with a glossary of the items.

I also would have liked the missions explained better between levels and some more creative missions too.

mm That's all I can think of right now. Sweet game man! I voted 5 it was fun.

DoodleBin responds:

Thanks for the constructive criticism. You've given us a lot to look at, hopefully we can take it away and build on it for future games.

[Slime's Cake Quest]

This is hilarious how similar this is to my game "Cake Quest" Even the name!! lol!!

The gameplay is also nearly the exact same. Puzzle gameplay, eat to get fat, you can also shrink.
Game was alright, I found the platforming engine to not be up to snuff.

MintPaw responds:

I'll stole it from you obviously!

[Sands of the Coliseum]

wtf just happened?
I killed her leg and she was on the ground kneeling down. I did a medium attack to her face and he fucking misses!? Then all of a sudden she stands up and puts her arms in the air and kills me randomly.. oooookay then.. :\
