CyberRobotnix's game Reviews on Newgrounds

[ARAAHFFP WRRE WYEOWISSS AYNSTSTMPA ATILMAHIBAE]

lol the game plays itself, I almost won by doing absolutely nothing.

I'm feeling nice today, so I'll give it a nice score, but it deserves a worse score TBH and also I wouldn't call this a roguelike, this is just a weird mixture of minigames cobbled together. I especially like the second level's disappearing sky, nice touch.

adriendittrick responds:

wait I completely forgot I gave this a roguelike tag haha. I think for this one I wanted to make a game that uses every single tag available on the gamejolt website, so I put permadeath and stat increase in there X) But you're right that it shouldn't be considered a roguelike.

[Nymphiad]

An interesting puzzle game, I got no complaints there.

I saw Amogus on the thumbnail BTW.

Wolod responds:

Now I can see it too :D

[Sunnyside vs. the Eggies]

It's decent, but overall I'd say the game is really mind-numbingly simple and somewhat easy at first, it's mostly just go right and shoot with almost no difference in the gameplay and the level design to spice things up other than for the enemies that spawn.

Even the powerups are lame, they're all just "improve a specific stat". I'm very critical especially because I like the Binding of Isaac and it's got unique items, this game here it's just a net downgrade from that type of gameplay and it feels repetitive to play.

But atleast it's still good enough on its own right.

[Hoisted]

It's ok, but not outstanding although I kinda like the gimmick. Too bad the game isn't fully finalised and is more of a tech demo because I would like to see my final score when I beat all the 15 levels.

[Rainy Day: Pixel Art Edition]

I mean it's pretty and it's got an interesting concept, but that's really it, for a puzzle game maybe 1 playthrough is fun, but after that you never play the game again.

[Platforming the basics]

The tutorial preset isn't meant to be uploaded like that to NG, that's lazy. You could have atleast done something ANYTHING funny with it.

Honestly you're so lucky all the assets are in the public domain.

lml55 responds:

That's sorta the point of public domain stuff, I just wanted to make something and made this in like 2 days\\

EDIT: For those wondering this uses the demo as a template, I just used the asset made a few of my own and did this to get back into Game Development

[Lonkin Generator]

This is mildly interesting, this is basically how NFTs work and why they look so weird. Also you should fix your upload here on NG because it doesn't work and other ppl will just zero star it, I got the game working on your own site tho.

[Vizzy & The Lost Cat]

Removing a star for being incomplete/not fully working.

The pixelisation algorithm used in this game is very inelegant and the outlines of sprites will disappear and reappear repeatedly. Best visible on the health which look to be tin cans? Cards?

The touch controls only work sometimes. They work fine on the title screen, I clicked on my mouse cursor which brought me into the game, but then when I got the prompt to press z or tap again it didn't work. I also wonder how it can work with a mobile screen when the touch controls are missing ingame too. This is exactly like GloryTheRainWing said, the game is rushed.

Otherwise I think it's somewhat good.

Peti responds:

Sounds like it might be a device issue, with the game thinking you're playing on PC when you're not. This game should be fully compatible on Android phones, that's what I have been playtesting it on. Tablets were out of our reach(and not something we assumed needed testing), and we were already warned beforehand that iOS issues would be out of our control.

Sorry that you encountered issues. Thanks for the fair review anyway.

[Infinity Traveler]

Very meh, but still works, so I'll give the bare minimum of stars for this game.

It isn't bad by any means, but it's very simple, generic and boring and it doesn't help that there's no music and the game looks to have been made back in 1999 along that pinball game for Windows 95.

Maybe if it was a retro horror game it would work, but it isn't so.

[Afraid of the Dark]

I kinda expected an Isaac clone, but instead got a sidescroller. I think it's pretty good, I especially like the lighting.
