JamesTDG's game Reviews on Newgrounds

[SNEKMEK]

Pretty cool, but softlocks are incredibly easy to get, especially as the mech gets longer. If this could be prevented, it would be incredibly useful.

RowanFuture responds:

soft-locking fixed :)

[Pac-Man Scratched (v2.8.1)]

A very impressive reproduction of the Pac-Man arcade games

Eventlesstew responds:

Thank you!

[Forest Shack]

Could be fun if I knew what I was doing, and the wolf encounter is impossible when you run out of knives.

HatiValcoran responds:

It won't appear if you don't have at least a few knives, but I will increase the threshold for it to appear so newer players don't have to worry about supplies that early on. (Already updated.)

Thank you for your feedback, dwarfbatman ᘛ⁐̤ᕐᐷ✎❑

[Dude - The Deck Swabber]

Seems like it could be fun, but it is deafeningly quiet

RichardOz responds:

Thank you! Unfortunately I'm already aware of the problem and I'm trying to fix it but the thing is that I use an emulator to run it on HTML5 and probably there's some problem with booting on Newgrounds, this doesn't happen on the itch page, you can play it with audio there (find the link in the description), by the way you can also download the ROM to be able to play on emulators, on NES with flashcard, NES mini and other things

Edit: the audio problem has been solved!

[Hyperlight Survivor]

The lag makes it unplayable, would give a higher rating if I could find something like an itch demo...

WittGames responds:

Hello! There's actually a itch version here:

[Kalikan]

Pretty cool 1947 clone, got 3rd place on the leaderboard on my first run lol.

LouieChapm responds:

Sadly kalikan can't talk to servers at the moment :'(

The current world record ( that I'm aware of ) is 15.3m from nikki here

Absolute insanity

[Sleef 2 ( mini IMURA demo )]

Interesting to see new mechanics be added to this. The grapple mechanic definitely could be revamped, as it is a pain to control my trajectory, not exactly fun to miss the goal when you time it wrong and can't air-strafe

RowanFuture responds:

you can air strafe but I guess it isn't clear enough. thanks for the feedback!

[The Spin Slasher]

While neat, the early game feels too tedious and the upgrades don't feel like much changes...

IceCreamer89 responds:

Thank you for feedback Dwarfbatman!

[Underboard: Omen]

The game looks fun, but the performance is really poor on my Thinkpad W520 with Brave, hopefully, a patch will be developed?

chazmuco responds:

Please try playing our desktop version, we will see what we can do to improve the web version
