Hamalo's game Reviews on Newgrounds

[Rocket Science]

I wanted to like it but it's just not dialed in whatsoever. It gives the impression that the author either hasn't completed the game on the default difficulty or has an unrealistic expectation for the audience's patience. Challenging games are good but the controls seem too touchy. I appreciate all of the content but the UI is a little too much in one place for me which makes it confusing.

It's virtually impossible to not damage your ship which means you're being bled of credits/losing even if you're passing the missions, challenging games usually are successful when the stakes for losing are relatively low and you're given a long time to master the mechanics. I felt punished even when beating the missions and clicked through the tutorial a ton.

Jonu responds:

Thanks a lot for the review, I appreciate it. I'll rework the difficulty in the next update.

Good Game

And unlike other people the ads didn't bother me all that much. It was a good game, challenging, but not too challenging.

Mine helping me with Level 18?

chesster415 responds:

Right click on a magnet to draw the key to you.

[The perspective tutoral]

Hmm...

Thats a pretty good drawing but you didn't really explain the perspective. You just ran us through how you drew that picture.

Also, there were loads of spelling errors and some people might dock a lot off because of that (I didn't.) I suggest you use a spell check before you submit your submissions.

It wasn't a bad picture, but it wasn't a very good tutorial either, sorry.

talls responds:

well you seemed to like it a bit, so thank you anyway.
Plus thats the point of it, TO TEACH YOU HOW TO DRAW IT!

[Newgrounds Helpful Guide]

Good Quiz

Good quiz but it didn't turn out right. It said I was a Newgrounds moderator or going to be one soon or whatever, but I really don't think its going to happen. :P

Also, the question about no one knowing what your whistle points are. Admins do know what they are. Moderators and users can't see it but Admins can.

Sispri responds:

The majority of Newgrounders taking this are regular users, except for Tom, who played this earlier :)

[Dominus Void]

Great Game

I love this game (and I beta tested it)

It reminds me of the level on chips challenge (old game) where you gotta keep sliding on the ice and each place you go...Well yeah, its pretty much this game lol

Awesome

Matt-Porter responds:

Thanks a ton for the review, I'm glad the turn out for this game is going well. Hopefully I get front paged or added to a collection so that I can get a little more exposure, if not oh well, it did really good today. Thanks for the review, and for beta testing :)

Oh ya, and if you sit in the challenge menu for a minute you can view all the beta testers names go by :P

[PongMaster]

Great Game

This is a great game, as far as pong goes anyway. But you got docked a couple points for originality. I liked how you added the other game in there for those people who didn't like pong and gave them another choice.

By the way, is your name (Cloud Nine) referring to the KMK cd?

Cloud-on-Sycoe responds:

Nope, not from that, it kind of ris up. Realy there chould be a 9 there so its like this: Cloud_9ine.

[CannonCrotch]

I beta tested this

And its just as good as it was when I tested it

Great game Tom Brien (It said your name, so I thought I'd use it)

I-smel responds:

I put my name on stuff, cos otherwise my mates think I'm lying.

[Drunken Masters]

Great

This game is great, it gives a lot of play time and it is extremely fun.

The only thing I can ask for is a music off button, which is what the 9/10 is for

JohnnySedona responds:

Click "Sound" in the Pause menu, and click the Pause/Play button next to the "Music" item. It might take a few clicks, but that'll kill the music for sure.

[You're Not Cool]

Haha Awesome

This is great, because it is true. If you know most of those questions and have that many reviews and stuff you spend way too much time on newgrounds.

I got 800/1000

and just for the record, Blue-Hippo is wade's bitch/sex slave lol

Sidorio responds:

I never even thought of that.

[Achilles]

Hmmm

This is a good game, but the spear throwing was a bit random (unless im missing something), like even if you were too far away from the enemy to hit them without throwing the spear, when you tried to attack you would attack air instead of throw the spear. So it would be could if you could include a button for spear throw.

I would also like to be able to upgrade armor, shield, life, all that stuff so that you could get better since the enemies do

DJStatika responds:

Hold forward + attack to throw the spear. Just press attack to stab with it
