DoctorStrongbad's game Reviews on Newgrounds

[Ritz on a Roll]

Pixel graphics are good and you can tell things apart. The controls take a minute to master, but once you do they work well. The difficult level is very high. That is probably the biggest issue with this game. If you added easy, normal, and hard difficulties as choices, it would really be an improvement.

[Upstream]

The Graphics are all pixels, because its Pixel art. Controls work well enough with mo issue. If you like collecting fish, than this is the game for you. You should be able to sell the fish. That way you could buy upgrades or new equipment. There is so much potential to make this game more interesting, and much better.

[Super Mumtaz Bros.]

Graphics are very retro inspired, but can be confusing. Some of the background colors are the same as the front ground ones. Controls take time to master since you can not exactly jump. This game is a great tribute to old school Mario Bros.

Extar responds:

Glad you enjoyed it! The graphics were all the work of Tom Hall & co. who put the start cart together for the jam, it was great working with them. There is indeed *no jumping* ;)

[Stupid House]

The Graphics are very surreal. Controls are point and click so no issues. Puzzles in this game can be complex. You have to pay attention, since the puzzles are intuitive. I like this concept of puzzles. This game seems like a tribute to Myst.

[Flavour Your Pop-Tart]

Graphics are basic, but they work well enough. Controls are point and click, no way to mess that up. I am not the biggest fan of dress ups game, but I tried out all the different props.

The medals work, and I earned them all.

Little-Radiodemon responds:

Thanks, I went with a point and click option because dragging and AS2 is a weird thing, not sure how well it plays with Ruffle!

Good to hear I didn't goof up the medals and such this time, other than a typo early on that some kind soul PMed me about :)

[You are Banned from the BBS!]

This is a short and sweet game all about the banning process. Graphics are average, and no issues with the controls. If only there was a way to prevent being banned on NewGrounds, That was be awesomely amazing.

The medals work, and I earned them all.

DVa-Clock responds:

Nice! I did notice Ruffle isn't a big fan of textboxes though.

[Karrion Killer]

Graphics remind me of arcade games. Controls worked well enough. The music was one of the best parts, it really goes well with the overall theme. The ending could of used an interesting boss.

[Flanet]

Graphics are pixel art, so that is a good start. The controls need work. They should be less sloppy and need a way to change the keys. The endless levels are a nice touch. If you included more towers and upgrades it would improve.

[SUPER IZZY]

The pixel graphics are too small, they should be larger. Controls can be confusing. especially when switching between the characters. I had a few glitching issues while I was playing. The game feels more like a demo than a finished game. If you polish it up and correct the glitches, it will improve.

[Seven]

Graphics are simple and look nice. Controls are kinda twitchy, but that can actually help you lower your time. If you enjoy speed runs, than this is definitely the game for you.
