HerbieG's game Reviews on Newgrounds

[Pumpkinhead Jump]

Seriously? This is not good. Especially physics. It looks like a fast-developed game, because there should be something submitted to Halloween, I have a feeling the game has been poorly tested before release. The double jump sometimes doesn't work, sometimes the second jump only causes a minimal bounce in the air and not pushing the pumpkin forward. Also being caught by the faces' "gravity" is not necessarily good, many times I was just passing almost through some of them, but I wasn't sticking to them. A summary: many things need to be improved.

[Halloween Town Survival]

Nice thing, as always :-) Why I took some stars from you? I must say that in some parts you are indeed getting a bit lazy in making these games ;-) For example when I clicked on a skeleton, the message said "Find something to defeat the slime", come on, using codes from so long time ago? Also when I left the area and went for a walk around, the combat music was still playing (in fact, I personally like it). Oh, and the Hole digging medal is not working.

selfdefiant responds:

Thanks! I missed the slime! I got it all fixed though. :)

[Enter the Dungeon, Grab the Treasure and Beware the Dangers]

No, no and just one more time no. The only + of the game is the graphics, but the gameplay...
I could compare it to the already legendary IWBTG series:
1. It is also hard as hell but
2. It is playable, because it has patterns, which you can train and finally pass the game. In this one the bats are ruining everything, which leads to 3:
3. You can as well already remove the last medal, because in my opinion it is unobtainable.
4. IWBTG also at least has a double jump, maybe implement one to make this game possible?
5. Or implement something like a part of "leave ma a clone" or something, You could for example stand safely on your last dead body.
Few more thoughts:
1. Sometimes I can stand on the edge of the spikes, sometimes not, if it is s bug-should be fixed, if not-it should be a rule, that a very small part of spikes is safe. Sometimes I even could land safely on the snakes (snakes?);
2. Does the map, which we are seeing on the very beginning matters? If yes, then how can we enter any map during the game?
With this base, you could make a quite good adventure game (maybe with a weapon or something), but the current one needs changes to make it even playable-and passable.
Oh, surprisingly for me I did not experience any lag in this game, that's good.

[Samurai Hash vs Vampires]

I like the graphics style, it reminds me Johnny Rocketfingers a bit. The only problem is that the knife doesn't seem to do any damage. I could just stand before an enemy hitting him constantly, causing him no harm and just waiting for him to kill me. Also for a ninja the character moves very slowly.

[Kakarot!-DBZ Broly Parody]

"Ow, my dragon balls"!!! :-D :-D :-D That text! Can't stop laughing! :-DDD Great stuff! :-)
Ow, by the way, the Pikachu medal is not working.

[~The Bounty~]

I would like this game more, but one thing makes me not: the method of selecting guns.
1. I sometimes have a feeling that I am changing one gun to the same gun or the same looking gun;
2. They should differ more (if these are different guns) in the menu (or add some colour indicators?), so the player could remember - ahh, this one is for killing reds, this is for blues, for purples... not being forced to try all the guns every single time;
3. It would be also good to have hot keys for the guns selection, like in FPS, from numbers 1 to 5 for all of the gun types.

[Kill the Creeper+]

There is still one big problem with this game: it likes to crash and then you are unable to choose another level. I wouldn't mind if the game saved progress, but it is not. For me currently the game crashed after level 21 and I will have to replay all the levels again...

[Doomsday Downpour]

One suggestion: if there is an option to move using mouse, enable L-click for shooting.

[Da Best Gaem]

Great game! I always liked Nyan Cat! :-) Only few things:
1. Sometimes I am not sure what exactly I did to unlock some of the medals;
2. I would definitely recommend changing the behaviour of the game after dying, because if you die on a very advanced level, the still moving background makes 2 things complicated:
a) it makes difficult to change the body/head, because it is simply covering the buttons;
b) after you restart you can lose a life or even 2, because before the previous background disappears, you are sometimes not sure where exactly you are and which obstacles are the current ones.

deathink responds:

You MLG'ed to get the medals!!!
