DoctorStrongbad's game Reviews on Newgrounds

[One More Hint]

This is a new twist on the old " who done it?" game. The clues can be helpful, if you know how to put them all together. If not, you will have to work on your guessing skills. A ran into a bug when the game would not load. I have to reset twice, to actually start.

[Get in Santa's Pants]

Fiss the elf should be larger. Especially, if the game is supposed to show own her outfit and her sex appeal. I have been walking around for over ten minutes and I am collecting several different items, but no idea what to do with them. Is there an item shop someplace to trade in cookies for lingerie?

[Into King Rabbit's Mansion]

Graphics are pixel art so it fits right into the current meta. Stealth games can be tricky, you have to make them challenging, but also fun to play. The not being able to jump mechanic had a definite effect on the gameplay. Nice work in making this in under 48 hours.

FadrikAlexander responds:

Thanks for playing!

[Leap Peasant]

Your pixel art skills look good and improved. I had some issues when it came to jumping. Not sure if it was just a bug, or part of the artificial difficulty. Seeing that you are trying to make this a rage quitting game, you never know how exactly you will try to frustrate the player. It did come out well in only six days.

AnderssonKev responds:

Thank you so much for that! :)

[Tonight We Hunt]

The graphics look great but caused lag while I was waiting for the game to start. You should include a way to change up the controls, your current setup is not user friendly. I am not a fan of fear mechanic, it just seems clunky and not that useful. This game should be better when you complete it. It is just a demo at the moment.

[Sub-Uber-Marine]

What happens when Crazy Taxi and a submarine game gets combined? Well, you get this new concept called Sub-Uber-Marine. This came out very well for being created in 48 hours. The music does a great job of synching up with the gameplay.

Extar responds:

Thanks, I'm glad you appreciated the music, that's always one of my favourite parts of making a game in Pico-8. Just to be clear this is the post-jam version, the version I submitted for the jam made in 48 hours only had the basic gameplay present. :)

[Plug In]

The graphics are okay but could really use some razzle dazzle. The Puzzles can be tough, but fair in this game. If you added some hidden short cuts, that would give the player a chance to explore and be rewarded.

[Heroes Quest]

Graphics are the standard version of pixel art. Controls worked well enough. Nothing really felt new or exciting at all. You should come up with some new ideas and lots more action.

[ART TELEPHONE: Holiday Edition]

Art style is interesting with all of the characters swapping. The animation could have been smoother and transition better. This might work better as a game, that way the player could share in some aspect of helping to create art.

[FIG]

Graphics are pixel art which is the standard for games these days. The entire game feels pretty generic, there is really nothing new or exciting at all. It could use more content and action. Also, I was very confused by your tags of black-anime-characters and black-characters. Was this game made for an event all about black characters? I have played many games with black characters that didn't have to announce it.
