ThePulp's game Reviews on Newgrounds

[GLOV3.1]

It's a brilliant and lite little puzzle game.
A mix of 'Ending' and those sliding block puzzles.

It's nice a piece, it is.

GAMEPLAY
+ Nice, simple and swell little puzzle paradigm it's got going on.
+ Changes mechanics often, has some variety of sorts to the challenge.
- Doesn't feel like anything especially new.

WRITING
+ Instructions are there to guide, they're pretty well written.
-/+ No discernible story of sorts, but I suppose that's the point.
+ No mistakes in spelling and such. I admire that.

SOUND
+ SFX are fitting and nice to listen to.
- No music. I guess it'd distract from the puzzles anyway.

GRAPHICS
+ The pixel-y flavor it's got fits the blockiness and stiffness of the concept.
+ Colorful enough.
- Feels a little bland, though.

AESTHETICS
+ Has a style to it, overall. Everything fits together to give the game a personality of sorts.

Thank you for your elaborate review :)

[Life as an Internet Star]

It's an alright simulator.
It has a message of sorts on internet fame and such-- I like that.

GAMEPLAY
+ Works well, mechanics have patterns.
- Unrealistic in a way.

WRITING
- Unrealistic. Even the comments the guy gets are too nice for YouTube.
+ Has a message of sorts.

MUSIC
+ Nice and looping well. Catchy and ambient.
- No other tracks, it seems.

GRAPHICS
+ Looks good enough, it isn't too sloppy.
- Alignment issues with the button text and other graphics.

AESTHETICS
+ Fits well enough for this sort of game.

Thanks for the great input. I see a lot of your points and agree with them pretty well, I'm not a great programmer so I did what I could and tried to make it easy overall. The comments I completely understand as well, but I wanted to make it so anyone could play it and if I went realistic on the comments, holy crap this would be rated Mature. Again, thanks for the input. I am continuing to update based on feedback and will do so from yours as well.

[GRAVITY]

This seems to be quite a beauty of a puzzle game-- off the bat.

Nice work with this, man.

The graphics are minimalist, but pretty cool. Nice with the lighting.
The music's pretty good, too.

The idea's a little unoriginal since gravity based puzzle games've been done at least a couple times before, but this is its own piece and it's pretty damn good.

"If you press space, something cool might happen"
Hah.

Primajin responds:

Thank's :) - Yeah I've played a few great gravity platform games and really just wanted to make my own attempt at one. I'm glad you liked it!

[Jetblack Jetpack Jelly]

Feels incomplete.

olivertoole responds:
