JamesTDG's game Reviews on Newgrounds

[Clocksmith Exorcist]

I like the concept for this, however, the whole mechanic feels incredibly painful to use with a mouse, I think it would function better for gamepad users. Also, it would be neat to add more battle mechanics to this to make it more akin to a traditional roguelite.

[PUP]

Pretty great game, though getting past the bonus level where you have a sticky pillar in the middle is such a pain, like IDK how I am gonna solve it...

Scratch that last bit, I am shooting myself in the foot with the solution. Let's just say you gotta take advantage of the double jump mechanic...

Edit: It would be nice to get more levels for this

[Last Christmas (Game Jam Version)]

Honestly, that is the craziest damn mini horror game I have ever played, I just wish there was a bit more and that getting all possible endings wasn't such a pain

Polytelygames responds:

Thank you for playing and the feedback, it was created in just 14 days, I'm working on an update to address all the problems and bugs, and for sure a bit more to do.

Edit - Just wanted to let you know that it is nominated at The Game Development World Championship. If you have a moment to help a new indie game dev out, please follow the link and click the vote button https://thegdwc.com/games/last-christmas

[Pursuit of hat]

Still plays as good as it did back in 2013.

[Haunt the House]

A nice piece of nostalgia, still can't get an all kills or pacifist run yet. One of these days I will, hopefully...

[DigiWoog Disaster (Woogi)]

I just dusted off this relic of the past, man was this such a nostalgia trip. I wonder if there's a woogi world rewritten now...

[Portal Defenders: Tower Defense]

Updated review, scroll down to find my previous review:
After completing the campaign, I can safely say that this really needs to become a proper series, hell, I would kill if we had a site-wide collab for PD:TD2! The van levels still provide some difficulty, you will need to not build barracks and focus on using a mix of cannons and turrets, make sure to position the cannons around usual parking spots for the vans and focus turrets towards the edges. The claws WILL be your best friend in this map. Any remaining problems I have come from just the vans darting towards the portal right as they show up. Ironically, the final boss is easier to beat than a van swarm, lol.

1 final thing of note, the saving system got fixed (yay), so I didn't have to attempt to beat this in a singular sitting.

Previous Review:
Game runs great, the campaign is also pretty fun, up until the van part. It seems to be a common consensus that the van NEEDS nerfs. I can't even use my claws as a last ditch effort, and I am using Lv 2 claws! (-1 star) My only other grievance is the lack of proper game saves, it appears that when I close my tab, I lose all of my progress, I hope the devs will patch this later on... (-0.5 star)

[Portaboy+]

Wow, this game is crazy af. I wonder if there is anything in the code that infers an ARG...

[No Passport]

Pretty great, but could do with some extra difficulty

[/tilt/]

Game's pretty fun, but building momentum is a bit confusing to learn, IDK if I am supposed to hold Jand K or bash it to gain momentum...
