CyberRobotnix's game Reviews on Newgrounds

[WolfSharp]

Why make a ROM for an old console then emulate it? Just why? Also the game isn't that great cuz it's always the same level w/o anything else happening until my character dies or something.

The jump button isn't responsive on my end, sometimes I'll try to jump and bastard won't jump.

[Cat in the West]

Firstly, it doesn't work. "TypeError: WebGLRenderingContext.shaderSource: Argument 1 is not an object."
secondly, the thumbnail tells me that game won't be worth my time anyways.

[Aztlan: Rise of the Shaman]

Incredibly hard first level (assuming there's anything after that), I wish good luck to anyone who dares playing this. Other than the annoying gameplay I liked the game for as long as I was able to play since there's also the timer to worry about.

pedrogamedev responds:

Thank you for playing CyberRobotnix! Yes, the first level may have a high difficulty, but once you get used to the controls and mechanics, you will be able to pass it without any problems!

[Argent Ball]

Too precise, it's hard to even hit the red balls.

[Teleport Tower]

I feel like the portal gun isn't consistent, sometimes it'll shoot farther than it did last time, sometimes it shoots as far as it should, so it's hard for me to know where I'll land.

It's also more punishing than Jump King and Getting Over It, in both of them there's plenty of platforms you can fall down to. For as much as I played this game every single time I fell, I fell all the way down onto the floor with the PCs and sometimes on the tables where those PCs were. It should happen if I mess really badly, but not like every single time, you get me?
I really wonder how long will Ludwig bother playing TBH.

Anyways it's cool to see more rage games around these parts, really neatly done one at that. Cool graphics, nice music and all that.

EvanMMO responds:

The range is meant to be proportionate to how long you "charge" the shot by holding down the mouse. I agree it is too unforgiving with how far you fall. I also think the pacing of the level design is too brutal in general. This was for the Ludwig jam from 2021 and the game was not selected to be played on stream but Ludwig at least watched the trailer and commented on it a lil bit.

[Reversary]

A really cool role reversal. Too bad the character you play as is kinda slow and boring. (Also my game is slower than the GIF in the desc)
It makes sense for a boss, but then it would have been better if he had many more cool attacks.
Also I take that back, there are bosses out there that are fast-paced, like Dark Link (and Sans apparently.)

[Get Your Controls Back!]

1. Another case of Kevin McLeod/Royalty free asset spam. Also nothing is cohesive together, like the triangle guy is flat like some character made by Kenney and then the tiles are semi-realistic, the background and house are also both different artstyles. Even the font looks out of place.
2. It lasts only 2 minutes and I can prolly speedrun it under 30 seconds.
3. I immediately recognised the music. It's from opengameart.org and I literally used it in one of my games, good taste there, but only for the main menu. It's very unfitting for your game TBH.
4. It's so basic, insultingly simple even. It's the easiest puzzle game I've ever played in my entire life and that's both for NG and Itch.io.

1X. Also I checked the jams you sent your thingy to to make sure I wouldn't be an asshat about it (Some jams FORCE you to use premade assets afterall like the opengameart.org jam last year) and it turns out infact that you could create your own assets and use them. There's no excuse for this game being this stinky and lazy.
2X. The premise isn't even that bad, it's a platformer with puzzle elements, it's not something I see often. If it was longer than 2 minutes and spanned more levels (Which you had the opportunity to add) then I'd be nicer to this because there was an attempt, but nah cringe m8.

Since it's such an asset flip that's unfinished, I'm giving it 1 star. You shouldn't upload prototypes online.

[Bore of Time]

Buggy, doesn't always properly register my inputs. Also you have to hold down whatever tile you want to go to.

amidos2006 responds:

I am so sorry about that, will try to fix that.
[EDIT]
I fixed the controls now to use instead the arrow keys :)

[Autumn Garden TD]

Mid, it's alright for the most part, it works, but it's so incredibly easy, short and lame. The final wave on both levels had those tankass snails that still got destroyed and with 100HP and 1880$ to spare. On my first try BTW. The second stage layout is a little bit trickier to work with, but still relatively easy.

weazeltech responds:

Thanks a lot for giving it a play and for the feedback! I appreciate it a lot
